The Freezer button serves two purposes:
- To set the Freezer to your desired
temperature.
- To turn the power freeze function on
and off.
1) To set the Freezer temperature, touch
the Freezer button to set the Freezer to
your desired temperature. You can set
the temperature between 5 °F (-15 °C)
and -8 °F (-23 °C).
2) Power Freeze function
Touch and hold this button for 3 seconds
to decrease the time needed to freeze
products in the Freezer.
It can be helpful if you need to quickly
freeze easily spoiled items or if the
temperature in the freezer has warmed
dramatically (For example, if the door was
left open).
When you use this function the energy
consumption of the refrigerator will
increase. Remember to turn it off when
you don’t need it and return the freezer
to your original temperature setting. If you
need to freeze large amount of food stuff,
activate Power Freeze function at least 20
hours before.

Reset
The Alarm button serves two purposes:
- To turn the door open alarm on and off
- To reset the water filter life indicator.
1) Door Alarm Function
If the door alarm is set to On, an alarm
beeps if any refrigerator door is left open
for more than three minutes. The beeping
stops when you close the door. The door
alarm function is pre-set to On in the
factory. You can turn it off by pressing and
then releasing the Alarm button. You can
turn it back on in the same fashion. The
icon lights up when the function is on.
When the Door Alarm function is on and
the alarm sound is triggered, the Door
Alarm Icon will blink while the alarm
sounds.
2) Water Filter Life Indicator Function
After you replace the water filter, touch
and hold this button for 3 seconds to
reset the water filter life indicator. When
you reset the water filter life indicator, the
Filter icon on the panel turns Off. The
Filter icon will turn red to let you know it
is time to change the water filter after six
months (about 300 gallons). Some areas
have large amounts of lime in their water,
which causes the water filter to clog more
quickly. If this is the case in your area,
you will have to change the filter more
frequently than every six months.
