■ As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator. ■ You may hear water running into the drain pan when the refrigerator is defrosting. ■ You may hear clicking sounds when the refrigerator starts or stops running. Using the Control For your convenience, your refrigerator control is preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the control is still preset to the mid-setting as shown. Lower Shelf To Remove and Replace Lower Shelf: 1. Remove the shelf by lifting it up and pulling it forward. 2. Replace the shelf by lowering it on the guides. Adjusting Controls The mid-setting indicated in the previous section should be correct for normal usage. The control is set correctly when beverages are as cold as you like. If you need to adjust the temperature, wait at least 24 hours between adjustments and then recheck the temperature. To make the refrigerator colder, adjust the control to the next higher setting. To make the refrigerator less cold, adjust the control to the next lower setting. REFRIGERATOR FEATURES Important information to know about glass shelves and covers: Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping. Refrigerator Shelves Your model may have glass or wire shelves. Store similar foods together. This reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves energy. To Remove and Replace Shelves: 1. Remove the shelf by lifting up the front and pulling it out of the shelf slots. 2. Replace the shelf by inserting it into the shelf slots and pushing it toward the back of the compartment. REFRIGERATOR CARE Cleaning WARNING Explosion Hazard Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. Clean the refrigerator about once a month to avoid buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately. To clean your refrigerator: 1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power. 2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves, etc. 3. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. ■ Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can scratch or damage materials. ■ To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs to 1 qt [26 g to 0.95 L] of water). 7
