Control Panel
Depending on your model, your refrigerator has either an internal
control panel, located at the top of the refrigerator compartment,
or an external control panel, located above the external water
dispenser. Follow the instructions specific to your model.
Internal Control Panel
External Control Panel
IMPORTANT (External Control only): The display screen on the
dispenser control panel will turn off automatically and enter
“sleep” mode when the control buttons and dispenser paddles
have not been used for 2 minutes or more. While in “sleep” mode,
the first press of a control button will only reactivate the display
screen, without changing any settings. After reactivation, changes
to any settings can then be made. If no changes are made within
2 minutes, the display will re-enter “sleep” mode.
■ Touch any control button on the dispenser panel to activate
the display screen.
Temperature Control
For your convenience, the temperature control is preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the
control is still set to the recommended setting as shown.
