Using the Controls

The control center is located on the front of the ice and water dispenser.

Temperature Controls

For your convenience, your temperature controls are preset at

the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the

controls are still set to the recommended set points as shown.

Recommended Settings

IMPORTANT:

■ When the power is on, the temperature display shows the set

point temperature of the compartment.

■ Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before

adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has

cooled completely, your food may spoil.

NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer temperature

controls to a colder than recommended setting will not cool

the compartments any faster.

■ The recommended settings should be correct for normal

household refrigerator 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.

To Turn Off/On:

IMPORTANT:

■ Depending on your model you may have a control center with

an On/Off button (Style 1), or you may have a control center

without an On/Off button (Style 2).

■ The On/Off control turns off cooling for both compartments

and turns off the dispenser. It does not disconnect power to

the refrigerator.

Style 1 – Press and hold the On/Off button for three seconds.

The red LED will light up to indicate that cooling is Off. Press the

On/Off button again to turn on the cooling. The LED will turn off.

Style 2 – Press the Freezer (+) pad until OFF appears in the

display. Neither compartment will cool. Press the Freezer or

Refrigerator (-) pad to turn the cooling back on.

Adjusting Controls

The REFRIGERATOR control adjusts the refrigerator

compartment temperature. The FREEZER control adjusts the

freezer compartment temperature.

If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or

freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart as a

guide.

To Adjust Set Point Temperatures:

The first touch of the (+) or (-) touch pad displays the current

temperature set point.

■ Press the (+) or (-) touch pads until the desired temperature

set point is displayed.

NOTE: Except when first turning on the refrigerator, do not

adjust either temperature control more than one setting at a

time. Wait 24 hours between adjustments for the temperature

to stabilize.

Additional Control Center Features

Max Cool

The max cool feature assists with periods of high refrigerator use,

full grocery loads, or temporarily warm room temperatures.

■ Press the Max Cool touch pad to set the freezer and

refrigerator to the lowest temperature settings. Press the Max

Cool touch pad again to return to the normal refrigerator set

point.

NOTE: The Max Cool feature will automatically shut off in

approximately 2 hours. When Max Cool is on, the

temperature cannot be adjusted.

Humidity Control (on some models)

The humidity control feature turns on a heater to help reduce

moisture on the door hinge seal. Use in humid environments or

when you notice moisture on the door hinge seal. The refrigerator

uses more energy when Humidity Control is on.
