ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely

before making final adjustments. It is best to wait 24

hours before doing this. The initial settings mentioned

in

CONTROL PANEL FEATURES section should be

correct for normal household refrigerator use.

The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for

the entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections).

The colder the setting, compressor will the longer the

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 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 and allow

24 hours for the temperature to stabilize. If it is too

warm or too cold, then adjust the freezer control. Use

the settings listed in the chart below as a guide.

Always

remember to wait at least 24 hours between

adjustments.

ICEMAKER OPERATION

WARNING

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD

Avoid contact with the moving parts of the

ejector mechanism, or with the heating element that

releases the cubes. DO NOT place fingers or hands

on the automatic icemaking mechanism while the

refrigerator is plugged in.

A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours

to begin making ice.

The icemaker will produce 8 cubes per cycle,

approximately 100-120 cubes in a 24 hour period,

depending on freezer compartment temperature, room

temperature, number of door openings and other

operating conditions.

If the refrigerator is used before the water connection

is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to

OFF

(O). Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the

water line to clear.

Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler

arm. When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm,

the icemaker will stop producing ice.

It is normal for several cubes to be stuck together.

If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become

cloudy, taste stale, and shrink.
