Temperature Adjustment - Whirlpool W10857666B Instructions D'installation

Adjusting the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer controls
are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator,
make sure that the controls are still set to the "mid-settings." The
factory recommended set points are 38°F (3°C) for the refrigerator
and 0°F (-18°C) for the freezer.
IMPORTANT:
Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you
■
add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the set points to a colder than
recommended 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 preset temperatures 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.
Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the
■
temperatures before other adjustments are made.
To view and adjust the set points, press and hold the TEMP for 3
seconds. When adjust mode is activated, adjusting information
will appear on the display screen.
NOTE: To view Celsius temperatures, press the LIGHT button
when Adjust mode is activated. To return the display setting to
Fahrenheit, press LIGHT again.
When Adjust mode is activated, the display screen shows the
■
refrigerator set point and "FRIDGE" appears.
Press LOCK to raise the set point, or press FAST COOL to
■
lower the set point.
When you have finished viewing (and adjusting if desired) the
■
refrigerator set point, press TEMP to change the display to
show the freezer set point. When the zone has been changed,
"FREEZER" appears on the display screen.
Press LOCK to raise the set point, or press FAST COOL to
■
lower the set point.
When you have finished viewing (and adjusting if desired) both
■
the refrigerator and freezer set points, press FILTER to save
the settings.
NOTE: To exit without saving changes, press ICE TYPE at
any time while in Adjust mode or allow about 60 seconds of
inactivity and adjust mode will turn off automatically.
