(]qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
isproperly grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility

and obligation to haveit replacedwith (]
properly grounded :3-prongwall outlet.

Therefrigerator shouldalways be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has

(]voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

prevents overloading housewiring circuitswhich

could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling

on the power cord.Always grip plug firmly

Operating Instructions

Stainless Steel Refrigerator

Temperature

controls

FREEZER REFRIGERATOR

®

®

The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F
for the fresh food compartment and O°F for the freezer
compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize
to the preset recommended settings.

The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature
as well as the actual temperature in the fresh food and freezer
compartments. The actual temperature may vary slightly
from the SET temperature based on usage and operating

environment.
Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both

the freezer and fresh food compartments but does not shut
off electrical power to the refrigerator.

NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering
the temperature controls. #this film was not removed during

installation, remove it now.

Once the desired temperature has been

set, the temperature display will return to
the actual fresh food and freezer temperatures

after 5 seconds. Several adjustments may

be required. Each time you adjust controls,

allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach
the temperature you have set.

The Performance Air-Flow Sgstem isdesigned to
maximize temperature control in the fresh food
and freezer compartments, This unique special
feature consists of the Air Tower along the top
and back walls of the fresh food compartment
and the Air Tunnel on the bottom portion of
the freezer rear wall. Placing food in front of
the louvers on these components will not affect
performance.

To turn the cooling system off, tap

the @(warmer) pad for either the fresh food

compartment or the freezer until the display
shows OFF.To turn the unit back on, press

the @(colder) pad for either the fresh food

compartment or freezer. The SET light will
illuminate on the side you selected. Then press

the @(colder) pad again (on the side where
the SET light is illuminated) and it will go to

the preset points of O°Ffor the freezer and 37°F
for the fresh food compartment.

can be removed, doing so will affect temperature
performance. (For removal instructions, on-line,
