When adjusting temperature set points, use the following chart as a

guide.

The set point range for the refrigerator is 33°F to 45°F (0°C to 7°C). The

set point range for the freezer is -5°F to 5°F (-21°C to -15°C).

Cooling On/Off

Your refrigerator and freezer will not cool when cooling is turned off.

■ To turn cooling off, press and hold the OPTIONS and FILTER

buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.

IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally locking the dispenser or

changing other settings, be sure to press both buttons at exactly the

same time.

When cooling is off, “COOLING OFF” will appear on the display

screen.

■ Press and hold OPTIONS and FILTER for 3 seconds again to turn

cooling back on.

Additional Features

Fast Ice and SpeedCool

The Fast Ice feature assists with temporary periods of heavy ice use by

increasing ice production over a 24-hour period.

The SpeedCool feature assists with periods of heavy ice usage, full

grocery loads, or temporarily warm room temperatures.

■ To turn on the Fast Ice feature, press OPTIONS. “Fast Ice” will

appear on the display screen.

The Fast Ice feature will remain on for 24 hours unless manually

turned off.

■ To turn on the SpeedCool feature, press OPTIONS a second time.

The Fast Ice feature will turn off, and the SpeedCool feature will

turn on. “SpeedCool” will appear on the display screen.

The SpeedCool feature will remain on for 24 hours unless manually

turned off.

■ To turn on both the Fast Ice and SpeedCool features at the same

time, press OPTIONS a third time. Both “Fast Ice” and “SpeedCool”

will appear on the display screen.

Both features will remain on for 24 hours unless manually turned

off.

■ To turn both features off, press OPTIONS a fourth time. Both “Fast

Ice” and “SpeedCool” will disappear from the display screen.

When Fast Ice and/or SpeedCool are active, the temperature displays

will not change. After 24 hours, the refrigerator returns to the previous

temperature set points.

NOTE: If increased ice production is desired at all times, change the

freezer control to a lower setting. Setting the freezer to a colder

temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream, harder.

Door Ajar Alarm

The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the refrigerator or

freezer door is open for 5 minutes and the product cooling is turned on.

The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes. Close both doors to turn it off.

The feature then resets and will reactivate when either door is left open

again for 5 minutes.

NOTE: To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open, such

as while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, press any button on the

control panel. The alarm sound will be temporarily turned off, but “Door

Ajar” will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel.

Disabling Sounds

■ To turn off all control and dispenser sounds, press and hold LIGHT

and FILTER at the same time for 3 seconds.

■ To turn all sounds back on, press and hold LIGHT and FILTER at

the same time for 3 seconds again.

Dual Evaporator (on some models)

Some models come equipped with a dual sequential evaporation

system, which includes two separate evaporators for the refrigerator

and freezer compartments.

Dual evaporation results in higher humidity, which helps keep foods in

the refrigerator from spoiling as quickly and improves food quality and

freshness in the freezer due to decreased freezer burn. In addition, the

dual evaporation system helps keep food smells in the refrigerator from

transferring to ice in the freezer.

NOTE: The dual evaporation system is always activated when your

refrigerator is operating. You do not need to press any buttons to turn it

on.

Convertible Drawer Temperature

Control (on some models)

The control can be adjusted to properly chill meats or vegetables. The

air inside the pan is cooled to avoid “spot” freezing and can be set to

keep meats at the National Livestock and Meat Board recommended

storage temperatures of 28° to 32°F (-2° to 0°C).

To store meat:

Set the control to one of the three MEAT settings to store meat at its

optimal storage temperature.

To store vegetables:

Set the control to VEG to store vegetables at their optimal storage

temperatures.

NOTE: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the right (less cold),

toward the VEG setting. Remember to wait 24 hours between

adjustments.

Crisper Humidity Control

(on some models)

You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper.

Adjust the control to any setting between LOW and HIGH.

LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.

HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.
