Temperature Controls

In some models the fresh food control is located at the
top of the fresh food compartment and the freezer
control is located at the back of the freezer
compartment as show below:
INITIAL SETTING
COLDEST
FREEZER CONTROL
In other models, both controls are located at the top of
the fresh food compartment as shown below:
Initial Settings
• The fresh food control has settings from 1 (cold) to
7 (coldest). Initially set this control on 4.
• The freezer control, when located at the back of the
freezer, has settings from cold to coldest. Initially set
this control at the mid-line initial setting.
• When the freezer control is located at the top of the
fresh food compartments, it has settings from 1 (cold)
to 7 (coldest). Initially set this control on 4.
Note
• Your refrigerator will run continuously for several
hours when you first start it. This is normal.
• Let the refrigerator run at least four hours before
adding food.
Adjusting the Temperature
Controls
• 24 hours after adding food, you may decide that one
or both compartments should be colder or warmer. If

"OFF"
* Turning the fresh food control to "OFF" stops cooling
in both compartments. It does not shut off power to
the refrigerator.
No Defrosting
Your refrigerator is designed to defrost automatically.
Note
• During the automatic defrost cycle, you may notice
a red glow/reflection in the vents on the back wall
of the freezer compartment and you may hear the
sound of water droplets coming into contact with
the defrost heater. This is normal during the
defrost cycle.
Warm Cabinet Surfaces
At times, the front of the refrigerator cabinet may be
warm to the touch. This is a normal occurrence that
helps prevent moisture from condensing on the
cabinet. The condition will be more noticeable when
you first start the refrigerator, during hot weather and
after excessive or lengthy door openings.
