Using Your Refrigerator
To obtain the best possible results from your refrigerator, it is important that you operate it 
properly. This section tells you how to set the controls, remove and adjust some of the 
features in your refrigerator, and how to save energy.
Setting the controls
Temperature controls
Controls for the refrigerator and freezer are 
in the refrigerator. When you plug in the 
refrigerator for the first time;
1. Set the Refrigerator Control to 4.
Refrigerator Control adjustments range
from 1 (warmest) to 8 (coldest).
2. Set the Freezer Control to C.
Freezer Control adjustments range from
A (coldest) to D (warmest).
3. Give the refrigerator time to cool down
completely before adding food. This may 
take several hours.
The settings indicated above should be
correct for normal, household refrigerator
usage. The controls are set correctly
when milk or juice is as cold as you like 
and when ice cream is firm. If you need to 
adjust these settings, see “Changing the 
control settings” on page 8.
Exterior moisture control
The Exterior Moisture Control operates 
electric heaters around the door openings. 
These heaters help keep moisture from 
forming on the outside of the refrigerator 
cabinet.
• Use the OFF setting when humidity is low.
• Use the ON setting if rrK)isture forms on
the outside of the refrigerator cabinet.
