TEMPERATURE CONTROLS NOTE ALLOWING COOLING TIME BEFORE USE To ensure safe food storage, allow your refrigerator to operate with the doors closed for at least 8 to 12 hours before placing food inside. During this cooling period, you do not need to adjust the controls, which are preset at the factory. SETTING COOLING TEMPERATURES Your refrigerator comes with a state-of-the-art electronic digital control system. The system's control panel is located at the top of the the fresh food compartment. The two digital displays on the left half of the control panel indicate the current settings or temperatures of your freezer and fresh food compartments. The models with a 2-digit temperature display are for reference only, and do not display the current accurate compartment temperature. Should you desire to see what the current accurate temperature is, place a separate thermometer inside the freezer or fresh food compartment in the desired location. TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT After 24 hours, adjust the controls as needed. Make your adjustments small and gradual; allowing time for temperatures to change and stabilize. Refer to the adjacent guidelines for temperature settings. To adjust the temperature to a higher or lower setting, press the Up or Down button closest to the display. The first time you press the button, the display shows the last setting you entered. Each press of the button after that increments the setting by one degree. The display shows your new setting momentarily, then changes back to the current temperature. Temperature Adjustment Guide If Fresh Food compartment is too warm Adjust Fresh Food control one degree colder by pressing Down (Colder) button. If Fresh Food compartment is too cold Adjust Fresh Food control one degree warmer by pressing the Up (Cold) button. The advanced electronic control system in your refrigerator includes additional display modes that service professionals can use to rapidly diagnose performance issues. IF TEMPERATURE DISPLAYS FLASH... If ever you see both temperature displays continously flashing, it may indicate that the control system has detected a performance problem. Call your service representative, who can interpret the flashing message. To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. For good circulation, do not block cold air vents with food items.
