When you have finished viewing (and adjusting if desired) both

the refrigerator and freezer set points, press FILTER to save

the settings.

NOTE: To exit without saving changes, press ICE TYPE at any

time while in adjust mode, or allow about 60 seconds of

inactivity and adjust mode will turn off automatically.

When adjusting temperature set points, use the following chart as

a guide.

CONDITION:

REFRIGERATOR too cold

REFRIGERATOR too warm

FREEZER too cold

FREEZER too warm /

Too little ice

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 LOCK 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 LOCK and FILTER for 3 seconds again to turn

cooling back on.

Additional Features

Fast Ice

The Fast Ice feature assists with temporary periods of heavy ice

use by increasing ice production over a 24-hour period.

IMPORTANT: This feature only works if the ice maker is turned

on. See "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."

Press FAST ICE to turn on the Fast Ice feature. When the

feature is on, the Fast Ice icon will appear on the dispenser

display screen. The Fast Ice setting will remain on for 24 hours

unless manually turned off.

To manually turn off the Fast Ice feature, press FAST ICE again

or adjust the freezer temperature set point. The Fast Ice icon

will disappear when the feature is off.

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

the freezer set point to a lower setting. Setting the freezer to a

colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream,

harder.

6th Sense™ Temperature Management

The 6th Sense™ feature assists with regulating the temperature

inside the refrigerator. If a large quantity of warm food is placed in

the refrigerator or warm air enters the refrigerator while the door is

held open, the 6th Sense™ system activates to quickly restore the

temperature to the set point.

NOTE: The 6th Sense™ system is always on when your

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

activate it. The 6th Sense™ icon on the dispenser display screen

indicates that the feature is functioning properly.

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 the Door Ajar icon will still be displayed on the

dispenser control panel.

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.
