IMPORTANT:
Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you
add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the set points to a higher (colder) than
recommended setting will not cool the compartments any
faster.
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.
Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the
temperatures before other adjustments are made.
The display screen on the dispenser control panel has a
backlight, which will turn off automatically when the control
buttons have not been used for 30 seconds or more. When
the backlight is off, the first press of a control button will only
reactivate the backlight, without changing any settings. Within
30 seconds after the backlight has been reactivated,
additional presses of control buttons will change the
applicable settings.
Adjusting the Controls
To adjust the set points, press and hold the TEMPERATURE
button for 3 seconds. When adjust mode is activated, set points
and adjusting information will appear on the display screen.
NOTE: To view Celsius temperatures, press the FILTER button
when adjust mode is activated. To return the display setting to
Fahrenheit, press FILTER again.
Refrigerator Controls
When adjust mode is activated, the LOCK and FAST ICE/COOL
buttons adjust the refrigerator compartment temperature. The set
point range for the refrigerator is 33°F to 45°F (0°C to 7°C).
Press LOCK to lower the set point.
Press FAST ICE/COOL to raise the set point.
Freezer Controls
When adjust mode is activated, the ICE and LIGHT buttons adjust
the freezer compartment temperature. The set point range for the
freezer is -5°F to 5°F (-21°C to -15°C).
Press ICE to lower the set point.
Press LIGHT to raise the set point.
Press TEMPERATURE to exit adjust mode, or allow about
15 seconds of inactivity and adjust mode will turn off
automatically.
Additional Features
NOTE: The display screen on the dispenser control panel has a
backlight, which will turn off automatically when the control
buttons have not been used for 30 seconds or more. When the
backlight is off, the first press of a control button will only
reactivate the backlight, without changing any settings. Within
30 seconds after the backlight has been reactivated, additional
presses of control buttons will change the applicable settings.
Fast Cool and Fast Ice
The Fast Cool feature assists with periods of heavy ice usage, full
grocery loads, or temporarily warm room temperatures.
The Fast Ice feature assists with temporary periods of heavy ice
use by increasing ice production over a 24-hour period.
Press the FAST ICE/COOL button to turn on the Fast Cool
feature. When the feature turns on, the “Fast Cool” animation
will appear on the dispenser display.
The Fast Cool setting will remain on for 24 hours unless
manually turned off.
Press FAST ICE/COOL again to turn off Fast Cool and turn on
the Fast Ice feature. When the feature turns on, the “Fast Ice”
animation will appear on the dispenser display.
The Fast Ice setting will remain on for 24 hours unless
manually turned off.
Press FAST ICE/COOL a third time to activate Fast Cool and
Fast Ice at the same time. When the features are activated,
both the “Fast Cool” and “Fast Ice” animations will appear on
the dispenser display.
Press FAST ICE/COOL a fourth time to turn both Fast Cool
and Fast Ice off.
When Fast Cool and/or Fast Ice are active, the temperature
display will not change. After 24 hours, the refrigerator returns to
the previous temperature set points.
NOTE: If increased ice production is desired at all times, change
the freezer control to a lower setting. Setting the freezer to a
colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream,
harder.
