Top Mount Refrigerator Quick Start Guide

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, located in your appliance's Owner's Manual, before operating this appliance.

IMPORTANT: Before operating this appliance, make sure it has been properly installed according to the appliance's Owner's Manual.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Your refrigerator has two controls that affect the temperature. The Temperature control is located at the top front of the refrigerator compartment and the Airflow control is located on the back wall of the freezer compartment.

Temperature Setting Diagram Description: A visual representation of the temperature control dial and the cooling on/off button. The dial has settings from 'Cold' to 'Coldest,' with a 'Recommended' position. The 'Cooling On | Off' button is a separate control, activated by holding for 4 seconds.

COOLING ON/OFF

  • To turn cooling off, press and hold the 'Cooling On|Off' button for 4 seconds until all lights stay on for 1 second. To turn cooling back on, press and hold 'Cooling On|Off' again for 4 seconds.

NOTE: Neither compartment will cool when the control is set to Off.

AIRFLOW CONTROL

The Airflow control regulates the amount of air flowing between the freezer and the refrigerator compartments. Changing the Airflow setting to Max removes cool air from the freezer and uses it to cool the refrigerator.

Airflow Control Diagram Description: A visual representation of the airflow control dial, with settings ranging from 'Min' to 'Max'.

Recommended Settings

For your convenience, the temperature control is preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the control is still preset as shown above.

IMPORTANT: The recommended setting should be correct for normal household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm. Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your food may spoil.

ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL

NOTE: Except when starting the refrigerator, do not adjust the control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between adjustments for the temperature to stabilize.

  • If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide.

NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer controls 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.

ADJUSTING THE AIRFLOW CONTROL

  • If you want to temporarily increase the cold airflow to a specific compartment, adjust the control:
  • Max - Increase airflow to the freezer
  • Min - Increase airflow to the refrigerator

IMPORTANT: Once the performance is achieved, return the Airflow control to the recommended setting to keep the refrigerator operating at optimum efficiency.
