USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

To dispense water or ice, gently push your cup against the

dispenser pad.

NOTE: Hold your cup in place for a couple of seconds

after dispensing ice or water so the last few drops

go in your cup instead of on the floor.

DOOR ALARM

When either refrigerator or freezer door is left open for

more than 60 seconds, an alarm will sound 5 times at

thirty-second intervals to let you know the door is open.

The alarm will repeat every 30 seconds until all doors

are completely closed. Please contact the local service

center if warning tone continues to sound even after

closing the door.

FILTER

(Filter Replacement Cycle)

There is an indicator light for the water filter cartridge

on the dispenser that will blink to indicate it is time to

change the water filter. Water filters usually need to be

replaced once every six months. After replacing the filter,

press and hold the Filter Reset button for 3 seconds to

turn off the filter status light.

LOCK

The Lock button deactivates the temperature controls

and dispenser functions. Press and hold this button for 3

seconds or until the Lock indicator light is lit. To disable

the Lock function, press and hold the filter button for

seconds or until the Lock indicator light is off.

ICE PLUS

Press this button once to activate the increased ice

making function. The ICE PLUS icon on the display panel

will illuminate when activated. The Ice Plus function runs

the freezer compartment at the coldest settings for a

24 hour period to increase ice making. Press the button

again to cancel the Ice Plus function.

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.
