Rotary Controls Ion some models)
For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the
factory. When installing your refrigerator, make sure that the
controls are still preset to the "mid-settings" as shown.
FREEZER REFRIGERATOR
! I
2 4
COLD COLDER COLD 1 6 COLDER
IMPORTANT:
Your product will not cool when the REFRIGERATOR Control
is set to OFF.
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer
compartment temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-
setting make the temperature less cold. Settings to the right
of the mid-setting make the temperature colder.
Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you
add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a
higher (colder) setting will not cool the compartments any
faster.
The preset settings should be correct for normal household
usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as
cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
Ifthe 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 Rotary Controls
If you need to adjust temperatures, adjust the refrigerator
temperature first.
NOTE: Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments and then re-
check the temperatures.

Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water.
Failure to do so can result in cuts,
Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the
following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed
ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a
lock option to avoid accidental dispensing.
The ice dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer. When
the dispenser lever is pressed:
A trap door opens in a chute between the dispenser and the
ice bin. Ice moves from the bin and falls through the chute.
When you release the dispenser lever, the trap door closes
and the ice dispensing stops. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open.
Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer. The button
controls are designed for easy use and cleaning.
For cubed ice, press the CUBE button until the red indicator
appears in the window above the CUBE button.
ICE
For crushed ice, press the CRUSH button until the red
indicator appears in the window above the CRUSH button.
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This
may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise
from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.
When changing from CRUSH to CUBE, a few ounces of crushed
ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
To dispense ice:
1. Press button for the desired type of ice.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the
glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to
the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard
will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
