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.
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.
Slide Controls (on some models)
For your convenience, your controls are preset at the factory.
When installing your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are
