Using the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer controls are 
preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make 
sure that the controls in the refrigerator and freezer 
compartments are still preset to the mid-settings as shown.
Mid-setting “4”
IMPORTANT:
To turn your refrigerator off, turn the freezer control to the 
word OFF or until the word OFF appears. Neither 
compartment will cool when the freezer control is set to OFF.
The refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment 
temperature. 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.
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 Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a 
higher (colder) than recommended setting will not cool the 
compartments any faster.
The preset settings should be correct for normal household 
use. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as 
cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
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.
Adjusting Control Settings
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding 
food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into the 
refrigerator. The settings indicated in the previous section should 
be correct for normal household refrigerator usage. The controls 
are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and 
when ice cream is firm. 
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer, 
use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Always 
remember to wait at least 24 hours between adjustments.
Ice Maker 
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
NOTE: Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down. 
To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is 
made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice 
cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) 
position.
To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shutoff arm to 
the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure 
the ice maker will not continue to operate. 
Increasing Ice Production Rate
The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches of 
ice in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough, turn 
the Freezer Control toward a higher (colder) number in half 
number steps. (For example, if the control is at 3, move it to 
between 3 and 4.) Wait 24 hours and, if necessary, gradually turn 
the Freezer Control to the highest setting, waiting 24 hours 
between each increase.
REMEMBER:
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the 
first three batches of ice produced.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of 
the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the 
ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener 
chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker 
and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot 
be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating 
properly and is well maintained.
Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice 
storage bin.
