electrical components. To turn off power to your refrigerator,
you must unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

• adjust temperature gradually: move the knob in small
increments, allowing the temperature to stabilize.
• For colder temperatures, turn the knob towards Colder.
• For warmer temperatures, turn the knob towards Cold.
Turning the refrigerator control will change temperatures in both
compartments. For example, if the refrigerator control is turned
to a colder setting, the freezer control may have to be adjusted
to a warmer setting. Turning the freezer control will change only
the freezer temperature.
To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the refrigerator
and freezer compartments. For good circulation, do not block
cold air vents with food items.
note
When making changes to the temperature controls, wait 24
hours for the temperature to stabilize before making additional
changes.
