Controls
This refrigerator operates at household temperatures of
55° to 110°F (13° to 43°C).
Fresh Food and Deepfreeze ® Controls
Fresh Food and Deepfreeze ® controls are located on
center divider between Fresh Food and Deepfreeze ®
sections.
When Deepfreeze ® control is set to OFF, neither Fresh
Food nor Deepfreeze ® sections will cool. Initially, set both
controls to 4. Wait 24 hours for Fresh Food and
Deepfreeze ® sections to reach desired temperatures.
After 24 hours, adjust controls, one number at a time, as
desired. 1 is warmest setting and 7 is coldest.
Setting Controls
Set controls precisely with a household thermometer that
includes temperatures between -5° to 50°F
(-21° to 10°C).
Put thermometer snugly between frozen packages in
Deepfreeze
® section. Wait 5-8 hours. If Deepfreeze ®
temperature is not 0° to 2°F (-17° to -16°C), adjust
control, 1 number at a time. Check again after 5-8 hours.
Put thermometer in a glass of water in middle of Fresh
Food section. Wait 5-8 hours. If Fresh Food temperature

a time. Check again after 5-8 hours.
Exterior Moisture Control
Exterior Moisture Control is located on center divider
between Fresh Food and Deepfreeze
® sections.
In humid conditions, refrigerators form condensation
around doors. Special heaters in refrigerator cabinet
minimize condensation.
Humidity depends on location of refrigerator. Set control to
ON if refrigerator is in a humid area or whenever moisture
is evident around doors. Set control to
OFF if refrigerator
is in a less humid area. Setting can be adjusted as
conditions change.
High quality steel is used in this refrigerator. However,
constant exposure to moisture may cause refrigerator
cabinet to rust. Set control to
ON anytime condensation
forms on refrigerator cabinet.
