Using the Controls

The control center is located at the top front of the refrigerator 
compartment. 

Temperature Controls

For your convenience, your temperature controls are preset at the 
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the 
controls are still set to the recommended set points as shown.

Recommended Settings

IMPORTANT: 

■

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.

■

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.

■

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. 

Cooling On/Off:

■

Cooling On/Off turns off cooling for both compartments. It 
does not disconnect power to the refrigerator. 

■

Press and hold Cooling On/Off for 3 seconds. The LED will 
light up to indicate that cooling is Off. Press the button again 
to turn on the cooling. The LED will turn off. 

Adjusting Controls

The REFRIGERATOR control adjusts the refrigerator compartment 
temperature. The FREEZER control 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:

The first touch of the (+) or (-) touch pad displays the current 
temperature set point. 

■

Press the (+) or (-) 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 between adjustments for the temperature 
to stabilize.   

Additional Control Center Features

Humidity Control 

The Humidity Control feature 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 Humidity Control when the environment is warm and 
more humid, or if you notice moisture on the door hinge seal. 
The indicator light will be lit when humidity control is ON. 

■

Press Humidity Control again to turn OFF and save energy 
when the environment is less humid. 

Sabbath Mode 

The Sabbath Mode is designed for those whose religious 
observances require turning off the lights and dispensers.
ON - All interior lights and alarm tones will be disabled.
OFF - All interior lights and alarm tones will be enabled.

■

Press and hold the Sabbath Mode touch pad for 3 seconds 
or until the indicator light is lit to turn on this feature. Press 
and hold the Sabbath Mode touch pad again to turn off this 
feature. 

Door Alarm

The Door Alarm feature sounds a chime every few seconds when 
the refrigerator door has been left open for 5 continuous minutes. 
The chime will sound until the door is closed or Door Alarm is 
turned off.

■

Press the Door Alarm to turn this feature ON or OFF. The
