If this film was not removed during installation, remove it now. The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator compartment and 0°F (-18°C) for the freezer compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended settings. Refrigerator temperatures can be adjusted between 34°F and 46°F (1°C to 8°C), and the freezer temperatures can be adjusted between -6°F and +8°F (-21°C to -13°C). To change the Refrigerator temperature: Tactile-LED Dispenser Control The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature as well as the actual temperature in the refrigerator and freezer. The actual temperature may vary slightly from the SET temperature based on usage and operating environment.
On some models, setting both controls to the warmest setting until the display flashes (off) will stop cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments.
On other models, setting either control to the warmest setting until the display flashes (off) will stop the cooling to the freezer and refrigerator.
