ALLOWING COOLINGTIME BEFORE USE

To ensure safe food storage, allow your refrigerator to operate with

the doors closed for at least 8to 12 hours before placing food inside.

During this cooling period, you do not need to adjust the controls,

which are preset at the factory.

SETTING COOLINGTEMPERATURES

Your refrigerator comes with a state-of-the-art electronic digital

control system. The system's control panel is located at the top ofthe

the fresh food compartment.

The two digital displays on the left half of the control panel indicate

the current settings or temperatures of your freezer and fresh food

compartments. The models with a 2-digit temperature display are for

reference only, and do not display the current accurate compartment

temperature. Should you desire to see what the current accurate

temperature is, place a separate thermometer inside the freezer or

fresh food compartment in the desired location.

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

After 24 hours, adjust the controls as needed. Make your

adjustments small and gradual; allowing time for temperatures

to change and stabilize. Refer to the adjacent guidelines for

temperature settings.

To adjust the temperature to a higher or lower setting, press the

Up or Down button closest to the display. The first time you

press the button, the display shows the last setting you entered.

Each press of the button after that increments the setting by

one degree.

The display shows your new setting momentarily, then changes

back to the current temperature.

HOW TO PRIME THE WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM

Your refrigerator's water supply system includes several

tubing lines, a water filter, a water valve and a water tank. To

ensure that your water dispenser works properly, this

system must be completely filled with water when your

refrigerator is first connected to the household water

supply line and whenever you replace the water filter.

TO PRIME THE WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM:

Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a drinking

glass against the water dispenser paddle.

Keep the glass in this position until water comes out of

the dispenser. There will be noticeable spurts and

sputters as the system pushes air out through the

system and dispenser nozzle. This is normal. This may

take about 1'/2 minutes.

Continue dispensing water for about 3 minutes to flush

the system of any air and impurities. Empty glass as

needed.

HOW THE ICE MAKER WORKS

The ice maker and container are located in the top of the

freezer compartment. After the refrigerator is installed properly

and has cooled for several hours, the ice maker can begin

making ice within 24 hours. 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 two

days to fill the ice container.

Because of new plumbing connections, the first production of

ice cubes may be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard

ice made during the first 24 hours.

TURNING YOUR SIDE MOUNTED ICE MAKER ON/OFF

To begin ice production, lower the wire signal arm to the

DOWN or ON position. The ice maker turns off automatically

when the ice container becomes full. To stop the ice maker,

raise the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the UP or

OFF position (see Figure 1).

TURNING YOUR REAR MOUNTED ICE MAKER ON/OFF

ICE PRODUCTION: WHAT TO EXPECT

How Much Ice Will a Side Mounted Ice Maker

Produce in 24 Hours?

A side mounted ice maker will produce 4 to 4.5 pounds of

ice every 24 hours, depending on usage conditions. Ice is

produced at a rate of 8 cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.

How Much ice Will a Rear Mounted ice Maker

Produce in 24 Hours?

A rear mounted ice maker will produce 3 to 4 pounds of ice

every 24 hours, depending on usage conditions. Ice is

produced at a rate of 8 cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.

Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's ON/OFF power

switch. To gain access to the ice maker, pull the ice cream

shelf out. Press the switch to the "O" position to turn it Off and

press it to the 'T' position to turn it On (see Figure 2). The ice

maker also has a built-in wire signal arm, which automatically

stops ice production when the ice bin is full. DO NOT use this

signal arm to manually stop the ice maker.
