OPERATING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Temperature Control
•
Your refrigerator has one control for regulating the
temperature. The temperature control is located on the
upper right hand corner of the interior compartment.
•
The first time you turn the unit on, adjust the
temperature control knob to “4” and run for at least 2
hours before putting foods inside. This will ensure the
cabinet is thoroughly chilled before food is put in.
•
The range of the refrigerator temperature control is
from position "1" ( cold) to "6" (coldest). Adjust the temperature control to the
setting
that best
suits your needs. The setting of “4” should be appropriate for home or office refrigerator use.
•
Turning the temperature control knob to “OFF” position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut
off the power to the unit.
•
NOTE;
•
If the unit is unplugged, loses power; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the
unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the refrigerator will not start.
•
Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance.
•
Do not place the foods on the air outlet, and leave spaces for airflow.
•
If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one
increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize between
adjustments.
Ice Tray
•
Recommended temperature control setting for ice making is “6”.
•
Fill the ice cube tray (2/3 capacity) with cold water and place the tray on the
bottom of the chiller compartment to freeze properly.
•
To eject the ice cubes from the tray, place over the ice bucket and twist
slightly.
•
Re-set the temperature control to setting “4”.
The Chiller Compartment
•
This compartment is designed for the ice making and short-term storage of some commercially
frozen foods.
•
The temperature of the chiller compartment may not reach temperature low enough to store
frozen foods safely and works well when the food is already frozen prior to storage.
•
Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions
on the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.
