Frequently Asked Questions
Q:
What are the best temperature settings for my refrigerator and freezer?
A:
The default setting for the refrigerator is 37° Fahrenheit (3° Celsius). The default setting for the
freezer is 0° Fahrenheit (-18° Celsius). Adjust these settings as necessary to keep food at desired
temperatures. Milk should be cold when stored on the inner shelf of the refrigerator. Ice cream
should be firm and ice cubes should not melt in the freezer. To switch the display from Fahrenheit to
Celsius, press and hold the Freezer and Refrigerator buttons until you hear a beep and the settings
in the display change.
Q:
How do I set the refrigerator and freezer temperatures?
A:
Continually press the Refrigerator or Freezer button on the control panel until the desired
temperature appears. The numbers will cycle from highest to lowest and then return to the highest
again with continuous pressing.
Q:
Why do I hear a buzzing noise from my refrigerator periodically?
A:
This may happen if you do not have a water source attached to your refrigerator and the icemaker is
turned on. If you do not have a water source attached to the back of the refrigerator you should turn
the icemaker off.
Q:
Why does the icemaker tray look crooked?
A:
This is a normal part of the icemaker cycle. The icemaker tray may appear level or with a slight tilt.
The change in position is to assist in the freezing process.
Q:
My refrigerator is powered on and the controls are working, but it's not cooling and the display
shows "OFF" (see below). What is wrong?
A:
The refrigerator is in Display Mode. The Display Mode disables all cooling in the refrigerator and
freezer sections to conserve energy while on display in a retail store. When activated, OFF is displayed
on the control panel and the display remains on for 20 seconds. With either refrigerator door opened,
press the Ice Plus button 3 times consecutively while pressing the Refrigerator button. The control
panel beeps and the temperature settings display to confirm that Display Mode is deactivated. Use
the same procedure to activate Display Mode.
Q:
My refrigerator is on and is cooling, but none of the lights are on and the buttons don't work.
The display shows "Sb".
A:
The Sabbath mode is activated. (Only included on some models.) To turn it off, see the Sabbath Mode
section.
