Frigidaire FFHT1713LQ ユーザーズマニュアル

Turning the refrigerator temperature control to “0” 

turns off the compressor and prevents the refrigerator 

from cooling, but does not disconnect the power to the 

light bulb and other electrical components.  To turn off 

power to your refrigerator, you must unplug the power 

cord from the wall outlet.



When first turning refrigerator on, move refrigerator

and freezer controls to Normal.  This is the 

recommended initial setting.  After 24 hours, adjust the 

controls as needed.

Your ice maker is shipped from the factory with the

wire signal arm in the ON position.  To ensure proper 

function for your ice maker, hook up water supply 

immediately or turn ice maker OFF by lifting the wire 

signal arm until it clicks and locks in the UP position.  

 •  Adjust temperature gradually: move the knob in

small increments, allowing the temperature to 

stabilize.

Turning the refrigerator control will 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 setting.  

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.

To ensure safe food storage, allow the refrigerator to 

operate with the doors closed for at least 8 to 12 hours 

before loading it with food. 

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, no ice will 

be produced during the first 24 hours of operation. Air

in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle 

two or three times before making a full tray of ice.  With 

no usage, it will take approximately one to two days to fill

the ice container.
New plumbing connections may cause the first production

of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor.

Discard ice made during the first 24 hours.

After the plumbing 

connections have been 

completed, the water 

supply valve must be 

opened.  Place the ice 

container under the ice 

maker, pushing it as 

far back as possible.  

Lower the wire signal 

arm to its “down” or 

ON position.

To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it 

clicks and locks in the “up” or OFF position.  The ice 

maker also turns off automatically when the ice container 

is full.  



Automatic ice makers are also optional accessories that 

may be installed in most models at any time.  Call your 

local dealer for information.
