Operating Your Refrigerator - Whirlpool WRS312SNHW Guide D'utilisation

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
Take off the doors.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb
inside.
Using the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the Freezer
Control should both be set to the "mid-settings."
IMPORTANT:
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. Every click on "Temp Setting" button makes
refrigerator compartment colder, once you get to the last level
the system will go back to the initial level.

Important information to know about disposal of
refrigerants:
Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local
regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed,
EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with
established procedures.
The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment temperature.
Settings to the front of the mid-setting make the temperature less
cold. Settings to the back of the mid-setting make the temperature
colder.
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 Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a higher
(colder) than recommended setting will not cool the compartments any
faster.
Adjusting Controls
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It
is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. The
settings indicated in the previous section should be correct for normal
household refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk
or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer, use the
settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Wait at least 24 hours
between adjustments.
