ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food
into the refrigerator. The mid-settings indicated in the
previous section should be correct for normal household
refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk
or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the
entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections). The
higher the number setting, the longer the compressor will
run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control
adjusts the cold air flow from the freezer to the refrigerator.

Setting the freezer control to a lower temperature keeps

temperature keeps more cold air in the freezer
compartment to make it colder.

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or
freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator first. Wait 24
hours after the refrigerator adjustment to check the freezer
temperature. If it is too warm or too cold, then adjust the
freezer control as well.

Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Always
remember to wait at least 24 hours between adjustments.
