USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in the illustration below, air enters at top of the freezer and circulates down. From the bottom of the freezer, air is forced up to the top of the refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through the top vent, then circulates and exists at the bottom, where it returns to the freezer. MULTI-FLOW • Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling operation. This is especially noticeable when new food is placed in the refrigerator compartment. • If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if gasket is damaged, efficiency may be lowered because of escaping cool air. SETTING THE CONTROLS • Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator compartments. • Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL at 37°F (3°C) and the FREEZER CONTROL at 0°F (-18°C). Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature as desired. • Refrigerator control: 33°F to 46°F (0°C to 8°C) The lower the number setting, the colder the refrigerator compartment will become. • Freezer control: -6°F to 8°F (-21°C to -13°C) When the setting is at a lower number, the freezer compartment becomes colder. But the refrigerator compartment becomes warmer because less cold air flows into the refrigerator. • ICE PLUS: Press the ICE PLUS key and the LED will turn on. This function will remain activated for 24 hours and intensify the cooling speed of freezer and increase the amount of ice. NOTE: If you want to change °F to °C, press and hold COLDER key of freezer and COLDER key of refrigerator over 5 seconds at the same time. and if you want to change °C to °F, hold them for 5 seconds again. Do not block any of cool air vents with food packages. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and temperature and moisture problems may occur. IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage Guide section for details.) CAUTION Display mode setting and its cancellation • To enter this mode, raise either the Refrigerator or Freezer temperature to its highest setting. Then, press and hold WARMER Key for 5 seconds. • Perform the same way again to cancel the display mode. 20

ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION
In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow
between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown
in the illustration below, air enters at top of the freezer and
circulates down. From the bottom of the freezer, air is
forced up to the top of the refrigerator. Air enters
refrigerator through the top vent, then circulates and
exists at the bottom, where it returns to the freezer.
MULTI-FLOW
• Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling
operation. This is especially noticeable when new food is
placed in the refrigerator compartment.
• If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent
while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if
gasket is damaged, efficiency may be lowered because
of escaping cool air.
Do not block any of cool air vents
with food packages.
If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and
temperature and moisture problems may occur.
IMPORTANT:
Because air circulates between both
sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to
the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to
eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of
food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage
Guide section for details.)
SETTING THE CONTROLS
• Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate
the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator
compartments.
• Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL at 37°F
(3°C) and the FREEZER CONTROL at 0°F (–18°C).
Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to stabilize.
Then adjust the compartment temperature as desired.
Refrigerator control: 33°F to 46°F (0°C to 8°C)
The lower the number setting, the colder the refrigerator
compartment will become.
Freezer control: –6°F to 8°F (–21°C to –13°C)
When the setting is at a lower number, the freezer
compartment becomes colder. But the refrigerator
compartment becomes warmer because less cold air
flows into the refrigerator.
ICE PLUS:
Press the ICE PLUS key and the LED will turn on. This
function will remain activated for 24 hours and intensify
the cooling speed of freezer and increase the amount of
ice.
NOTE:
If you want to change °F to °C, press and hold
COLDER key of freezer and COLDER key of refrigerator
over 5 seconds at the same time. and if you want to
change °C to °F, hold them for 5 seconds again.
Display mode setting and its cancellation
• To enter this mode, raise either the Refrigerator or
Freezer temperature to its highest setting. Then, press
and hold WARMER Key for 5 seconds.
• Perform the same way again to cancel the display mode.
