About the temperature control dial.
Turning the dial to 0 stops cooling in both compartments—fresh food and freezer. It does not shut off power to the refrigerator.
Temperature Control Dial (on some models)
The temperature control dial has nine
settings plus
0 . 1 is the warmest. 9 is the
coldest. At first, set the dial at 5 .
After using the refrigerator, adjust the dial
if necessary.
Insert a coin into the slot in the middle
of the dial and you can turn the dial to
the setting that is best suited to your needs.
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to
get cold.
About the fresh food compartment shelves.
Shelf supports at various levels allow you to custom-space your shelves. Not all features are on all models.
Full-Width Shelves
Some models have a steel wire sliding shelf, a
stationary tempered glass shelf, a spillproof
shelf or two steel wire stationary shelves.
These shelves can be moved to another place
in the fresh food compartment.
The full-width sliding shelf has stop-locks.
When placed correctly on the shelf supports,
the shelf will stop before coming completely
out of the refrigerator and will not tilt when
you place food on it or remove food from it.
Half-Width Shelves
One end of the shelf rests on a molded side-
wall support; a bracket on the other end
hooks into a track on the rear cabinet wall.
To remove, lift the shelf up at front, then off
the support and out of the track.
To replace, select desired shelf height. With shelf
front raised slightly, hook the bracket’s top lug into
the track, then lower the shelf onto the support.
NOTE: The shelf to the right of the track is
designed to hook into the right-hand slot; the shelf
to the left is designed to hook into the left-hand slot.
