The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm. ■ 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.

Adjust the Doors
IMPORTANT:
Your refrigerator has two adjustable, front leveling screws –
one on each side of the refrigerator base. If your refrigerator
seems unsteady or you want the door to close easier, use the
instructions below.
Before moving the refrigerator, raise the leveling screws so the
front rollers are touching the floor.
1.
Remove the base grille. Grasp the grille firmly and pull it
toward you.
2.
Raise or lower the cabinet.
Using a
¹⁄₄
" hex driver, turn the leveling screw on each side to
raise or lower that side of the refrigerator.
NOTE:
Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws. This
makes it easier to turn the screws. It may take several turns of
the leveling screw to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
To raise, turn the leveling screw clockwise.
To lower, turn the leveling screw counterclockwise.
3.
Open the door again to make sure that it closes as easily as
you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by

REFRIGERATOR USE
Opening and Closing Doors
There are two refrigerator compartment doors. The doors can be
opened and closed either separately or together.
There is a vertically-hinged seal on the left refrigerator door.
When the left side door is opened, the hinged seal
automatically folds inward so that it is out of the way.
When both doors are closed, the hinged seal automatically
forms a seal between the two doors.
Using the Controls
IMPORTANT:
The control panel is located on the front of the ice and water
dispenser.
To access the main control menu, press any of the four touch
pads located on either side of the display. Then, touch the pad
next to the desired option or user setting to access the various
features.
NOTE:
Press only the touch pads next to your selection on the
display screen, not the selection itself.
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.
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.
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.
