REFRIGERATOR USE
Ensuring Proper Air Circulation
In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air to
flow between the two sections. Cold air enters the bottom of the
freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator
section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as
shown.
Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal,
bread, etc. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be prevented and
the temperature controls will not function properly.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent
odor transfer from food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
Using the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the Freezer
Control should both be at the mid-settings as shown in the
illustrations below.
IMPORTANT: If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled
completely, your food may spoil. Turning the Refrigerator and
Freezer Controls to a higher (colder) than recommended setting
will not cool the compartments any faster.
NOTE:
Your product will not cool when the Refrigerator Control is
set to 0 (OFF).
The Automatic Exterior Moisture control continuously
guards against moisture buildup on the outside of your
refrigerator cabinet. This control does not have to be set
or adjusted.
Setting the dial controls (on some models):
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature, and 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.

compartment temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-setting
make the temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-
