French Door Bottom Mount 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.

Your refrigerator has an internal control panel, located at the top of the refrigerator compartment.

IMPORTANT: The recommended settings 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.

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.

CONTROL PANEL LOCK

The control panel can be locked to avoid unintentional changes to the settings.

NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the refrigerator. It simply deactivates the controls.

Press and hold [Lock button] for 3 seconds to lock the controls. The [Lock icon] will illuminate when the control panel is locked.
Press and hold [Lock button] again for 3 seconds to unlock the controls.

DOOR ALARM

The [Door Open icon] lights up whenever either door is opened.

When either door is open for 5 minutes and cooling is on, an alert tone will sound three times, and the [Door Open icon] will flash seven times. This pattern will repeat every 2 minutes until all the doors are closed properly. The feature then resets and will reactivate when either door is left open again for 5 minutes.

To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open, such as while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, press any button on the control panel. The alarm sound will be temporarily turned off, but the [Door Open icon] will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel.
Both doors must be fully closed to turn off the [Door Open icon].

FAST COOL

The Fast Cool feature assists during times of high refrigerator use, full grocery loads or temporarily warm room temperatures.

Press [Fast Cool button] to set the freezer and refrigerator to the coldest temperature settings. Press [Fast Cool button] again to return to the selected temperature set point.

The [Fast Cool icon] will be illuminated while the refrigerator is in Fast Cool mode.
The Fast Cool feature will turn off automatically after 24 hours.

MOISTURE CONTROL

The moisture control feature turns on a heater to help reduce moisture on the door hinge seal. Use in humid environments or when you notice moisture on the door hinge seal. The refrigerator uses more energy when Moisture Control is on.

To turn on/off the moisture control feature, press and hold [Moisture Control button] for 3 seconds.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLS

For your convenience, the temperature control is preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the control is still set to the recommended setting of 3 snowflakes.

Press the [Temp button] to display the desired number of snowflakes from 1 snowflake (least cold) to all 5 snowflakes (coldest).

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.

When adjusting temperature set points, use the following chart as a guide.

CONDITION	TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Refrigerator too cold	Fridge Temp one snowflake less ❄️
Refrigerator too warm	Fridge Temp one snowflake more ❄️❄️
Freezer too cold	Freezer Temp one snowflake less ❄️
Freezer too warm / too little ice	Freezer Temp one snowflake more ❄️❄️

AIR FILTER STATUS

The filter reset control allows you to restart the air filter status tracking feature each time you replace the air filter. See "Install Air Filter" in the owner's Manual.

Press and hold [Air Filter button] for 3 seconds, to reset the air filter status to Good. The [Air Filter icon] will turn blue.

COOLING ON/OFF

Your refrigerator and freezer will not cool when cooling is turned off. Follow the directions specific to your model.

To turn cooling off, press and hold both the [Fast Cool button] and [Moisture Control button] at the same time for 3 seconds. When cooling is off, "Cooling Off" will appear on the display screen.
To turn cooling back on, press and hold both the [Fast Cool button] and [Moisture Control button] at the same time for 3 seconds. When cooling is on, "Cooling Off" will disappear and the previously selected settings will appear on the display screen.
