Whirlpool 6ET18GK Refrigerator User Manual


 
Using Your Refrigerator
Setting the controls
Controls for the refrigerator and freezer are in the
refrigerator, When the refrigerator is plugged in for
the first time:
1. Set the Refrigerator Control to 3.
2. Set the Freezer Control to B.
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely
before adding food. (This may take several hours.)
These settings should be about right for normal
household refrigerator usage.
The controls will be set about right when milk
or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream
is firm.
If you need to adjust temperatures in refrigerator
or freezer, use the settings listed in the chart below.
