Temperature Controls
ALLOWING COOLING TIME BEFORE USE
To ensure reliable food storage, allow your refrigerator and freezer to operate with the doors closed for 8 to 12 hours before
placing food inside. During this cooling period, you do not need to adjust the controls, which are preset at the factory.
SETTING COOLING TEMPERATURES
Your refrigerator comes with a state-of-the-art electronic digital control system. The system’s control panel is located at
the top of the the fresh food compartment.
The two digital displays
on the left half of the
control panel indicate the
current temperatures of
your freezer and fresh
food compartments.
To adjust the temperature
to a higher or lower
setting, press the Cold or
Colder button closest to the display. The first time you press the button, the display shows the last setting you
entered. Each press of the button after that increments the setting by one degree. The display shows your new setting
momentarily, then changes back to the current temperature.
NOTE: The advanced electronic control system in your refrigerator includes additional display modes that service
professionals can use to rapidly diagnose performance issues.
