Refrigerator Control
• Install the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and
away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the refrigerator next to
heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven or dishwasher. If this is not
possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between the
two appliances will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently.

• Level the refrigerator so the doors close tightly.
• Refer to this Owner's Guide for the suggested refrigerator settings.
• Periodic cleaning of the condenser will help the refrigerator run more
efficiently. See “Outside” in the Care and Cleaning section.
• Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the
refrigerator to run longer and use more energy. Shelves should not be lined
with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air
circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient, which could cause food
spoilage.

circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient, which could cause food
spoilage.
• Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator.
This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
• Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
Cool Down Period
To ensure safe food storage, allow the refrigerator to operate with the
doors closed for a least 8 to 12 hours before loading with food.

Note: When first setting the controls or when changing a setting, wait 24
hours for the temperature to stabilize before making additional changes.

Temperatures
• After 24 hours, adjust the controls as needed. Adjust temperatures one
increment at a time.
• For colder temperatures, turn the dial a notch towards COLDER.
• For warmer temperatures, turn the dial a notch towards WARMER. The
temperature will increase, but not necessarily by 1,2, or 3°.
Turning the refrigerator control may change temperatures in both compartments. For
example, if the refrigerator control is turned to a colder setting, the freezer control
may have to be adjusted to a warmer one. Turning the freezer control will change
only the freezer temperature.

To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the refrigerator and freezer
compartments. For good circulation, do not block cold air vents with food items.

Moisture Reduction Switch (some models)
If moisture forms on the metal between the two doors, set the Moisture Reduction
Switch (located on the control box in the refrigerator compartment) to the “ON”
position. A heater will warm the surface and allow moisture to evaporate.
