Using the Controls

IMPORTANT:
The Fridge control adjusts the temperature in the refrigerator
compartment. The Freezer control adjusts the temperature in
the freezer compartment.
Wait 24 hours after you turn on the refrigerator before you put
food into it. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled
completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls to a lower (colder)
setting will not cool the compartments any faster.
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.
The recommended settings should be correct for normal
household usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or
juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
The actual temperature may differ from the display when a
door is open for an extended period of time.
