USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION
In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow
between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown
in the illustration below, air enters at top of freezer and
circulates down. From bottom of freezer, air is forced up
to top of refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through top
vent, then circulates and exists at bottom, where it returns
to freezer.
MULTI-FLOW
• Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling
operation. This is especially noticeable when new food
is placed in the refrigerator compartment.
• If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent
while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if
gasket is damaged, efficiency may be lowered because
of escaping cool air.
Do not block any of cool air vents with food packages.
If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and
temperature and moisture problems may occur.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both
sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer fo
the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to
eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of
food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage
Guide section for details.)
SETTING THE CONTROLS
• Your refrigerator has a control pad on the dispenser that
lets you regulate the temperature in the freezer and
refrigerator compartments.
• Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL at
37°F(3“C) and the FREEZER CONTROL at 0“F(-18°C).
Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to
stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature as
desired.
• Refrigerator Temp Control: 33°F/46°F(0°C to 8°C)
The lower the number setting, the colder the refrigerator
compartment will become.
• Freezer Temp Control: -6°F/9°F(-21°C to -13“C)
When the setting is at a lower number, the freezer
compartment becomes colder. But the refrigerator
compartment becomes warmer because less cold air
flows into the refrigerator.
NOTE: If you want to change °F to °C or the reverse,
press and hold FRZ TEMP button and REF TEMP button
at the same time for 3 seconds.
• Express Freezing : Press fhe EXPRESS FRZ button
and the LED will turn on. This function will remain
activated for 24 hours and increase the cooling speed of
the freezer and the amount of ice produced.
• Dispenser Lock : Press and hold the LOCK button for 3
seconds to lock the dispenser.
When it is locked, the LED will be off and the dispenser
will not operate. To unlock, press and hold the LOCK
button for 3 seconds.
• Filter Reset : When the FILTER RESET LED turns on,
you have to change the water filter. Press the FILTER
RESET button for 3 seconds to turn LED off. You need
to change the water filter approximately every 6 months.
