Using The Controls
IMPORTANT:

The refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The freezer control adjusts the freezer
compartment temperature.

Wait 24 hours after you turn on the refrigerator before you
put food into it. If you add food before the refrigerator has
cooled completely, your food may spoil.

faster.

or freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not
blocked before adjusting the controls.
