REFRIGERATOR USE
Using the Controls
NOTE: Make sure the refrigerator is plugged into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
controls are still preset to the mid-settings as shown.
IMPORTANT:
■
The refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The freezer control adjusts the freezer
compartment temperature.
■
The displays normally show the actual temperatures inside the
refrigerator and freezer compartments. Sometimes,
temperatures may vary slightly in different areas of each
compartment. For example, frequently opening the door
allows air from the room to enter the compartment, exposing
door bins to room-temperature air. When reading the display,
keep in mind that it shows an average temperature for the
entire compartment. If you want to view the temperature you
set for the compartment rather than the actual temperature,
see “Viewing Set Points.”
Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous
– even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help
prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
■
Take off the doors.
■
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
