Using your refrigerator

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.

Changing the control settings...

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refriger­

ator or freezer, use the settings listed in the chart

below.
