If increased ice production is desired at all times, set the
Freezer Control to a colder setting. Adjusting the freezer to a
colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice
cream, harder.
Digital Controls (on some models)
For your convenience, your controls are preset at the factory.
When installing your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are
still preset to the “mid-settings” as shown. The digital control
panel is located at the top of the refrigerator compartment.
NOTE: The factory recommended set points are 0°F (-18°C) for
the freezer and 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator.

Freezer Control to a colder number. Setting the freezer to a
colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice

Temperature System
The Temperature System feature lets you know the compressor
or evaporator fan is running. It is normal for this indicator light to
be on.
Water and Ice Dispensers
(on some models)
Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the
following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed
ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, a
special AUTO mode, or a lock option to avoid unintentional
dispensing.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer. When
the dispenser lever is pressed:
■
A trap door opens in a chute between the dispenser and the
ice bin. Ice moves from the bin and falls through the chute.
■
When you release the dispenser lever, the trap door closes
and the ice dispensing stops. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open.
Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer. The button
controls are designed for easy use and cleaning.
