About the controls with
temperature settings.

The temperature controls are preset in the factory at
37°F
for the refrigerator compartment
and
0°F
for the freezer compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the
preset recommended settings.
The temperature controls can display both the
SET
temperature as well as the actual
temperature in the refrigerator and freezer. The actual temperature may vary slightly from
the
SET
temperature based on usage and operating environment.
Setting either or both controls to
OFF
stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator
compartments, but does not shut off electrical power to the refrigerator.
To change the temperature,
press and release the
WARMER
or
COLDER
pad. The
SET
light will come
on and the display will show the set temperature.
To change the temperature, tap either the
WARMER
or
COLDER
pad until the desired
temperature is displayed. Refrigerator temperatures
can be adjusted between 34°F and 47°F and the
freezer temperatures can be adjusted between
–6°F and +8°F.
Once the desired temperature has been set,
the temperature display will return to the actual
refrigerator and freezer temperatures after 5
seconds. Several adjustments may be required.
Each time you adjust controls, allow 24 hours for the
refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set.
To turn the cooling system off,
tap the
WARMER
pad
for either the refrigerator or the freezer until the
display shows
OFF
.
To turn the unit back on,
press the
COLDER
pad for either the refrigerator or freezer.
The
SET
light will illuminate on the side you
selected. Then press the
COLDER
pad again (on the
side where the
SET
light is illuminated) and it will
go to the preset points of
0°F
for the freezer and
37°F
for the refrigerator. Setting either or both
controls to
OFF
stops cooling in both the freezer
and refrigerator compartments, but does not shut
off electrical power to the refrigerator.
Performance Air Flow System
Changing the Temperature
The Performance Air Flow System is designed to
maximize temperature control in the refrigerator
and freezer compartments. This unique special
feature consists of the Air Tower along the back
wall of the refrigerator and the Air Tunnel on the
bottom portion of the freezer rear wall. Placing
food in front of the louvers on these components
will not affect performance.
