REFRIGERATOR USE
ljs
g'dse ©ont
s
The temperature
controls are located at the top front of the
refrigerator or freezer compartments.
Your model may have either
electronic controls (Style 1) or dial controls (Style 2).
IMPORTANT:
•
When the power is on, the temperature display shows the
actual temperature of the compartment.
•
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.

Controls
For your convenience, the temperature
controls are preset at the

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the
OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made,
the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will
raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not
force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
To Turn Off/On:
Style 1- Press the freezer down arrow touch pad until a
dash (-) appears in both the refrigerator and freezer displays.
Neither compartment
will cool.
Style 2 -Turn the freezer control to the word OFR Neither
compartment
will cool when the freezer is set to OFF.
Adjusting Controls
If you need to adjust the temperature
in either the refrigerator or
freezer compartment,
use the settings listed in the chart below as
a guide. Except when starting the refrigerator, do not adjust either
control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between
adjustments for the temperature to stabilize.
Style 1 - Press the up or down arrow touch pad to adjust the
temperature.
Ice Production Rate
•
The ice maker should produce a complete batch of ice
approximately
every 3 hours.
•
To increase ice production,
lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature.
See "Using the Controls." Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
Remember
•
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
•
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the
ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener
chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker
and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot
be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating
properly and is well maintained.
•
Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.
