Warm Cabinet Surfaces
At time
s, the front of the refrigerator c
abinet may be
warm to the touch. This is a normal occurrence that
helps prevent moisture from condensing on the
cabinet. This condition will be more noticeable when
you first start the refrigerator, during hot weather and
after excessive or lengthy door openings.
Adjusting the Controls

or both compartments should be colder or warmer. If
so, adjust the control(s) as indicated in the
Temperature Control Guide table below. See page 21
for instructions on checking compartment
temperature.
• Except when starting the refrigerator, do not change
either control more than one number at a time.
• Allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize.
• Changing either control will have some effect on the
temperature of the other compartment.
