About the controls with temperature settings.
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F for the refrigerator
compartment and 0°F for the freezer compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature
to stabilize to the preset recommended settings.
The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature as well as the actual
temperature in the refrigerator and freezer. The actual temperature may vary slightly
from the SET temperature based on usage and operating environment.
Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator
compartments, but does not shut off electrical power to the refrigerator.
For Controls-on-the-Door Models:
To change the temperature, press and release the
WARMER or COLDER pad. The ACTUAL TEMP light
will come on and the display will show the actual
temperature. To change the temperature, tap either
the WARMER or COLDER pad until the desired
temperature is displayed.
For Controls Inside the Refrigerator:
Opening the door displays the actual temperature. To
change the temperature, press either the WARMER or
COLDER touch pads until the desired temperature is
displayed.
Once the desired temperature has been set,
the temperature display will return to the actual
refrigerator and freezer temperatures after 5
seconds. Several adjustments may be required. Each
time you adjust controls, allow 24 hours for the
refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set.
To turn the cooling system off, tap the WARMER pad
for either the refrigerator or the freezer until the
display shows OFF. To turn the unit back on, press
the COLDER pad for either the refrigerator or freezer.
Then press the COLDER pad again and it will go to
the preset points of 0°F for the freezer and 37°F for
the refrigerator. Setting either or both controls to OFF
stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator
compartments, but does not shut off electrical power
to the refrigerator.
Changing the Temperature
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the temperature controls.
If this film was not removed during installation, remove it now.
