ImportantSafetyInstructions

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using your

refrigerator, follow basic precautions including the following:

Read all instructions before using the

refrigerator.

Child entrapment and suffocation

are not problems of the past. Junked

or abandoned refrigerators are still

dangerous...even if they will “just sit

in the garage a few days!’

If you are getting rid of your old

refrigerator, do it safely. Please read

the enclosed safety booklet from

the Association of Home Appliance

Manufacturers. Help prevent accidents.

Never allow children to operate, play

with, or crawl inside the refrigerator.

Never clean refrigerator parts with

flammable fluids. The fumes can create

a fire hazard or explosion.

. FOR YOUR SAFETY.

DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR

OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQ-

UIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY

OTHER APPLIANCE. THE FUMES CAN

CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR EXPLOSION.

It is your responsibility to be sure your

refrigerator:

is installed and leveled on a floor that will hold

the weight, and in an area suitable for its size

and use.

is connected only to the proper kind of outlet,

with the correct electrical supply and ground-

ing. (Refer to the Electrical Requirements and

Grounding Instructions Sheet.)

UsingYourRefrigerator

Setting the controls

Controls for the refrigerator and freezer are in the

refrigerator. When the refrigerator is plugged in for

the first time:

1. Set the Refrigerator Control to 3.

2. Set the Freezer Control to B.

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely

before adding food. (This may take several hours.)

These settings should be about right for normal

household refrigerator usage.

The controls will be set about right when milk

or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream

is firm.

Refrigerator Control adjustments range from

1 to 5. Freezer Control adjustments range from

AtoC.

Changing the control settings

If you need to adjust temperatures in refrigerator or

freezer, use the settings listed in the chart below. If

you have questions, call your COOL-LINE@ serv-

ice assistance telephone number. (See page 14.)

Adjust the Refrigerator Control first.

Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments.

Then adjust the Freezer Control if needed.

Changing the light bulbs

Electrical Shock Hazard

Before removing a light bulb, either unplug

the refrigerator or disconnect the electricity

leading to the refrigerator at the main power

supply. Failure to do so could result in

electrical shock or personal injury.

To change refrigerator light:

1. Disconnect refrigerator from power supply.

2. Reach behind the Control Console to find bulb.

3. Remove bulb.

Ice cube trays

If cubes are not used, they may shrink. The

moving cold air starts a slow evaporation. The

longer cubes are stored, the smaller they get.

To remove ice:

1. Hold tray at both ends.

2. Twist slightly.

Automatic ice maker

If you have the automatic ice maker accessory, or

if you plan to add one later (Part No. ECKMF-90),

there are a few things you will want to know:

The ON/OFF lever is a wire signal arm.

Down.. .for making ice automatically.

Up.. .to shut off the ice maker.

NOTE: Do not turn ice maker on until it is con-

nected to the water supply. Instructions for

ice maker water supply hook-up are

attached to the back of the refrigerator

cabinet. _.

. The dial or lever on the side of the ice maker

changes the size of the cubes.

Shake the bin occasionally to keep cubes sepa-

rated, and to obtain increased storage capacity.

It is normal for ice crescents to be attached by a

corner. They will break apart easily.

You will hear water running when ice maker is

working. You’ll hear ice fall into the bin. Don’t let

these sounds bother you.

The ice maker will not operate until the freezer

is cold enough to make ice. This can take

overnight.

Because of new plumbing connections, the first

ice may be discolored or off-flavored. Discard the

first few batches of ice.

If ice is not being made fast enough and more ice

is needed, turn the Refrigerator Control toward a

higher number. Wait a day and, if necessary, turn

the Freezer Control toward C.

If you remove the ice bin, raise the signal arm to

shut off the ice maker. When you return the bin,

push it all the way in and lower the arm to the ON

position.

If cubes are stored too long, they may develop an

off-flavor.. like stale water. Throw them away. Ice

maker will make new ice. Cubes in the ice bin

can also become smaller by evaporation.

Good water quality is important for good ice

quality. It is not recommended that the ice maker

be connected to a softened water supply. Water

softener chemicals such as salt from a malfunc-

tioning softener can damage the ice maker mold

and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water

supply cannot be avoided, then it is important

that the water softener be well maintained and

operating properly. 9

Using Your Refrigerator

Continued

Sounds you may hear

Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your

old one didn’t. Because the sounds are new to

you, you might be concerned about them. Don’t

be. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard

surfaces like the floor, walls and cabinets can

make the sounds seem louder.

The following describes the kinds of sounds

that might be new to you, and what may be

making them.

Slight hum, soft hiss:

You may hear the refrigerator’s fan motor and

moving air.

Clicking or snapping sounds:

The thermostat makes a definite click when the

refrigerator stops running. It also makes a sound

when the refrigerator starts. The defrost timer

will click when the defrost cycle starts.

Water sounds:

When the refrigerator stops running, you may hear

gurgling in the tubing for a few minutes after it

stops. You may also hear defrost water running

into the defrost water pan.

Ice maker sounds:

trickling water

thud (clatter of ice)

If your refrigerator has an ice maker, you may hear

buzzing (from the water valve), trickling water and

the clatter of ice dumped into the bin.

Running sounds:

Your refrigerator has a high-efficiency compressor

and motor. It will run longer than older designs. It

may even seem to run most of the time.

Energy saving tips

You can help your refrigerator use less electricity.

Check door gaskets for a tight seal. Level the

cabinet to be sure of a good seal.

Clean the condenser coils regularly.

Open the door as few times as possible. Think

about what you need before you open the door.

Get everything out at one time. Keep food orga-

nized so you won’t have to search for what you

want. Close door as soon as food is removed.

Go ahead and fill up the refrigerator, but don’t

overcrowd it so air movement is blocked.

It is a waste of electricity to set the refrigerator

and freezer to temperatures colder than they

need to be. If ice cream is firm in the freezer and

drinks are as cold as your family likes them,

that’s cold enough.

Keep the Exterior Moisture Control on the OFF

setting unless moisture forms on refrigerator

exterior.

Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a heat

source such as a range, water heater, furnace,

radiator or in direct sunlight.
