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 both controls, the refrigerator and freezer, are still set
to the recommended "mid-setting". This will be displayed in the
sequence of bars with three illuminated bars.
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 recommened
settings 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 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.
Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the
■
temperatures before other adjustments are made.
If you need to adjust temperature in the refrigerator or freezer,
use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Wait at
least 24 hours between adjustments.

Water and Ice Dispensers

Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the
following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed
ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a
lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.
NOTES:
The dispensing system will not operate when either door
■
(refrigerator or freezer) is open.
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.
■
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
■
first three batches of ice produced. Wait 72 hours for full ice
production. Also, take large amounts of ice from the ice bin
rather than through the dispenser.
The display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn off
■
automatically and enter Sleep mode when the control buttons
and dispenser lever have not been used for 2 minutes or more.
While in Sleep mode, the first press of a control button will only
reactivate the display screen, without changing any settings.

Flush the Water System

Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser
to drip. After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or
replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Flushing the
water dispensing system forces air from the water line and filter,
and prepares the water filter for use.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
the dispenser.
1. Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water
dispenser lever for 5 seconds, and then release it for 5
seconds.
2. Repeat Step 1 until water begins to flow.
3. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing
the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total
of 3 gal. (11.4 L) has been dispensed.
Additional flushing may be required in some households.
