controls are still set to the recommended setting as shown.
Recommended Settings
REFRIGERATOR USE
There are two refrigerator compartment doors. The doors can
be opened and closed either separately or together,
There is a vertically-hinged seal on the left refrigerator door,
• When the left side door is opened, the hinged seal
automatically folds inward so that it is out of the way.
• When both doors are closed, the hinged seal automatically
forms a seal between the two doors.
A. Hinged seal
Your model has either Electronic or Digital Controls. Follow the
instructions specific to your model.
IMPORTANT:
Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely
before adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator
has cooled completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer temperature
controls to a colder than recommended setting will not cool
the compartments any faster.
The recommended settings should be correct for normal
household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly
when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream
is firm.
• If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator
or freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not
blocked before adjusting the controls.
Adjusting Controls
The REFRIGERATOR control adjusts the refrigerator compartment temperature. The FREEZERcontrol adjusts the
freezer compartment temperature.
If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator
or freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart as a
guide.
To Adjust Set Point Temperatures:
• Press the Up Arrow or Down Arrow touch pads until the
desired temperature set point is displayed.
NOTE: Except when first turning on the refrigerator, do not
adjust either temperature control more than one setting at a
time. Wait 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize
between adjustments.

Humidity Control (on some models)
The humidity control turns on a heater to help reduce moisture
on the door hinge seal. Use in humid environments or when you
notice moisture on the door hinge seal. The refrigerator uses
more energy when Humidity Control is on.
• Press the control to ON when the environment is warm and
more humid, or if you notice moisture on the door hinge seal.
