Temperature Control
Setting the controls...
The Temperature Control is in the refrigerator and
the Air Control is in the freezer secfion. When the
refrigerator is plugged in for the first time...
1. Set the TEMPERA-
TURE,CONTROLto3.
2. Set the AIR CON
TROL to 3.
Give the refrigerator time to cool down com
pletely before adding food. [This may take sev
eral hours.]
These settings should be about right for
normal household refrigerator usage.
The controls will be set about right when milk or
juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream
is firm.
Do not block the air outlet
on the control panel.
Blocking it can slow the air movement needed to
keep temperatures at the level you set.

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refriger
ator or freezer, use the settings listed in the chart
