Setting 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 at "4" as shown in the illustrations
below.
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator
compartment temperature and is located on the upper
rear wall in the refrigerator section. Settings to the left of
the mid-setting make the temperature less cold. Settings
to the right of the mid-setting make the temperature
colder.
The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment
temperature and is located at the top left front of the
freezer section. Settings to the left of the mid-setting
make the temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the
mid-setting make the temperature colder.

Cold
Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food
into the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT: If you add food before the refrigerator has
cooled completely, your food may spoil. Turning the
Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a higher (colder)
than recommended setting will not cool the
compartments any faster.

Adjusting Control Settings
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. Always remember to wait at least 24 hours
between adjustments.
