Using the Control
The temperature control is located at the top of the refrigerator 
compartment. It controls the temperature in both the refrigerator 
and freezer compartments. 
For your convenience, the Temperature Control is preset at the 
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the 
control is still preset to the mid-setting as shown.   
NOTE: To turn your refrigerator off, turn the refrigerator control to 
the word OFF or until the word OFF appears. Your product will 
not cool when the refrigerator control is set to OFF.
IMPORTANT:
Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before 
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food 
into the refrigerator.
If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, 
your food may spoil. Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer 
Controls to a higher (colder) than recommended setting will 
not cool the compartments any faster.
Adjusting Controls
The mid-setting indicated in the previous section 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. 
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.
If you need to adjust temperatures, use the settings listed in the 
chart below as a guide. Wait at least 24 hours between 
adjustments and then recheck the temperatures. 
Ice Maker 
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the 
OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
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. Do not 
force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
Ice Production Rate
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the 
first three batches of ice produced.
The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches 
of ice in a 24-hour period.
To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator 
temperature. See “Using the Control.” Wait 24 hours between 
adjustments.
For maximum ice production (on some models), push the 
switch to ICE PLUS. The ice maker should produce 16 to 
20 batches of ice in a 24-hour period in the Ice Plus mode. 
Remember
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 use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This 
can cause damage to the ice container and the dispenser 
mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice bin.
