TurboCool rapidly cools the refrigerator
compartment in order to more quickly
cool foods. Use TurboCool when adding
a large amount of food to the refrigerator
compartment, putting away foods after they
have been sitting out at room temperature
or when putting away warm leftovers. It can
also be used if the refrigerator has been
without power for an extended period.
Once activated, the compressor will turn
on immediately and the fans will cycle on
and off at high speed as needed for eight
hours. The compressor will continue to run
until the refrigerator compartment cools to
approximately 34°F (1°C), then it will cycle on
and off to maintain this setting. After 8 hours,
or if TurboCool is pressed again, the refrigerator
compartment will return to the original setting.
How to Use
Press TurboCool. The TurboCool temperature
display will show Tc and the LED will be
activated.
After TurboCool is complete, the TurboCool
indicator light will go out.
NOTES: The refrigerator temperature cannot be
changed during TurboCool.
The freezer temperature is not affected
during TurboCool.
When opening the refrigerator door
during TurboCool, the fans will continue
to run if they have cycled on.
About the temperature controls.
4
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F for the refrigerator compartment and 0°F for the
freezer compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended settings.
The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature as well as the actual temperature in the
refrigerator and freezer. The actual temperature may vary slightly from the SET temperature based on usage
and operating environment.
■ On some models, setting both controls to the warmest setting until the display flashes (off) will stop
cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments.
■ On other models, setting either control to the warmest setting until the display flashes (off) will stop the
cooling to the freezer and refrigerator.
■ NOTE: Turning the refrigerator off via the controls on the touch panel does not shut off electrical power
to the refrigerator.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the temperature controls. If this film was not
removed during installation, remove it now.

The Performance Air-Flow System is
designed to maximize temperature control
in the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
This unique special feature consists of the Air
Tower along the back wall of the refrigerator
and the Air Tunnel on the bottom portion of
the freezer rear wall. Placing food in front of
the louvers on these components will not affect
performance. Although the Air Tower and
the Air Tunnel can be removed, doing so will
affect temperature performance. (For removal
