mable fluids. The fumes can create a fire
hazard or explosion.
•FOR YOUR SAFETY •
DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR
OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND
LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR
ANY OTHER APPLIANCE. THE FUMES
CAN CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR EX-
PLOSION.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Using Your Refrigerator
To obtain the best possible results from your refrigerator, it is important that you operate it
properly. This section tells you how to set the temperature control, remove and adjust some
of the features in your refrigerator, and how to save energy.
Setting the temperature control
The Temperature Control is located on the
back wall of the refrigerator compartment. It
controls the temperature in both the refrig-
erator and freezer compartments. When you
plug in the refrigerator for the first time:
•Set the Temperature Control knob to 5.
Temperature Control adjustments range
from 1 (warmest) to 9 (coldest).
Give the refrigerator time to cool down
completely before adding food. This could
take several hours. Adjust the Temperature
Control so food is as cold as you like. Move
the dial 1 number at a time, and wait 24
hours between adjustments.
NOTE: During high humidity, moisture may
form on the outside of the cabinet. To
prevent rust, dry the cabinet and reset the
Temperature Control to a cooler setting.
Adjusting the refrigerator shelves
Adjust the refrigerator shelves to match the
way you use your refrigerator.
To remove a shelf:
1. Remove all items from the shelf.
2. Slide shelf straight out to the stop.
3. Lift the front.
4. Slide shelf out the rest of the way.
To replace a shelf:
1. Fit back of shelf on top of guide.
2. Lift the front of the shelf.
3. Slide shelf straight in.

Understanding the 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.
Saving energy
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 organized so you won’t
have to search for what you want. Close
door as soon as food is removed.
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.
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.
•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 refrig-
erator 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.
•Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a
heat source such as a range, water heater,
furnace, radiator, or in direct sunlight.

Caring for Your Refrigerator
Your refrigerator is built to give you many years of dependable service. However, there are a
few things you can do to extend its product life. This section tells you how to clean your refrig-
erator and what to do when going on holiday, moving, or during a power outage.
Cleaning your refrigerator
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections
defrost automatically. However,
clean both about once a month
to help prevent odors from
building up. Wipe up spills right
away.
To clean your refrigerator, turn the Temp-
erature Control to OFF, unplug it, take out all
removable parts, and clean the refrigerator
according to the following directions.
!!!INSERT WARNING HERE!!!
Personal Injury Hazard
Refrigeration system tubes are located
near the defrost pan and can become
hot. Clean defrost pan carefully.
Failure to do so could result in personal
injury.
WHAT TO USE
Sponge or cloth with mild
detergent and warm
water
Sponge, cloth, or paper
towel with mild detergent,
warm water, and an
appliance wax (or good
auto paste wax)
Sponge, soft cloth, or
paper towel with baking
soda or mild detergent
and warm water
HOW TO CLEAN
•Hand wash, rinse, and dry
thoroughly.
•Wash outside of cabinet. Do not
use abrasive or harsh cleaners.

Long vacations
If you will be gone a month or more:
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Unplug the refrigerator.
3. Clean it, wipe well, and dry.
4. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of
both doors to prop them open far enough
for air to get in. This stops odor and mold
from building up.
!!!INSERT WARNING HERE!!!
Personal Injury Hazard
Do not allow children to climb on, play
near, or climb inside the refrigerator
when the doors are blocked open.
They may become injured or trapped.
To restart refrigerator, see “Using Your
Refrigerator” on page 7.
Power interruptions
If electricity goes off, call the power com-
pany. Ask how long power will be off.
1. If service will be interrupted 24 hours or
less, keep both doors closed. This
helps food stay frozen.
2. If service will be interrupted longer than
24 hours:
(a) Remove all frozen food and store in a
frozen food locker.
OR
(b) Place 2 lbs (900 g). of dry ice in
freezer for every cubic foot of freezer
space. This will keep food frozen for 2
to 4 days. Wear gloves to protect your
hands from dry ice burns.
OR
(c) If neither a food locker or dry ice is
available, use or can perishable food
at once.
Moving
When you are moving the refrigerator to a
new home:
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Pack all frozen food in dry ice.
3. Unplug the refrigerator.
4. Clean it thoroughly. Wipe well and dry.
5. Take out all removable parts, wrap them
well, and tape them together so they don’t
shift and rattle.
6. Screw in the leveling rollers.
7. Tape the doors shut and tape the power
supply cord to the cabinet.
When you get to your new home, put
everything back and refer to page 5.
3. A full freezer stays cold longer than a
partly filled one. A freezer full of meat
stays cold longer than a freezer full of
baked goods. If food contains ice crystals,
it may be safely refrozen, although the
quality and flavor may be affected. If the
condition of the food is poor, or if you feel
it is unsafe, dispose of it.

Food Storage Guide
There is a correct way to package and store refrigerated or frozen food. To keep food fresher,
longer, take the time to study these recommended steps.
Storing fresh food
Wrap or store food placed in the refriger-
ator in airtight and moisture-proof material.
This prevents food odor and taste transfer
throughout the refrigerator. For dated
products, check code date to ensure
freshness.
Leafy vegetables
Remove store wrapping and trim or tear off
bruised and discolored areas. Wash in cold
water and drain. Place in plastic bag or
plastic container and store in crisper.
Vegetables with skins
(carrots, peppers)
Store in crisper, plastic bags, or plastic
container.
Fruit
Wash, let dry, and store in refrigerator in
plastic bags or crisper. Do not wash or hull
berries until they are ready to use. Sort and
keep berries in their original container in a
crisper, or store in a loosely closed paper
bag on a refrigerator shelf.
Eggs
Store without washing in the original carton
on an interior shelf.
Milk
Wipe milk cartons. For best storage, place
milk on interior shelf.
Butter or margarine
Keep opened butter in covered dish or
closed compartment. When storing an extra
supply, wrap in freezer packaging and
freeze.
Cheese
Store in the original wrapping until you are
ready to use it. Once opened, rewrap tightly
in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
Leftovers
Cover leftovers with plastic wrap or alumi-
num foil. Plastic containers with tight lids can
also be used.
Meat
Store most meat in original wrapping as long
as it is airtight and moisture-proof. Rewrap if
necessary. See the following chart for
storage times.

Chicken
Ground beef
Steaks and roasts
Cured meats
Bacon

Storing frozen food
The freezer section is designed for storage
of commercially frozen food and for freezing
food at home.
NOTE: For further information about prepar-
ing food for freezing or food storage times,
check a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.
Packaging
The secret of successful freezing is in the
packaging. The way you close and seal the
package must not allow air or moisture in or
out. Packaging done in any other way could
cause food odor and taste transfer through-
out the refrigerator and drying of frozen
food.
Packaging recommended for use:
•Rigid plastic containers with tight-fitting lids
•Straight-sided canning/freezing jars
•Heavy-duty aluminum foil
•Plastic-coated paper
•Non-permeable plastic wraps (made from
a saran film)
Follow package or container instructions for
proper freezing methods.
Do not use:
•Bread wrappers
•Non-polyethylene plastic containers
•Containers without tight lids
•Wax paper
•Wax-coated freezer wrap
•Thin, semi-permeable wrap
The use of these wrappings could cause
food odor, taste transfer, and drying of
frozen food.
Freezing
Do not expect your freezer to quick-freeze
any large quantity of food. Put no more
unfrozen food into the freezer than will
freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2-3
lbs. per cubic foot [900-1,350 g per liter] of
freezer space). Leave enough space for air
to circulate around packages. Be careful to
leave enough room at the front so the door
can close tightly.
Storage times will vary according to the
quality of the food, the type of packaging or
wrap used (airtight and moisture-proof), and
the storage temperature, which should be
0°F (-17.8°C).

Is the power supply cord firmly plugged into a live circuit with proper
voltage?
Has a household fuse or circuit breaker blown/tripped?
Is a bulb burned out?
Is something on top of or behind the refrigerator?
Some new sounds are normal. See “Understanding the sounds you
may hear” on page 9.
This is normal on hot, muggy days. Make sure the refrigerator is level
so the pan does not overflow.
Are the condenser coils dirty?
Has the door been opened often? Has a large amount of food been
added at one time? The motor naturally runs longer if these things
happen.
Is the room hot? If the room is too warm, the motor runs longer to
keep the unit cool.
Is the cabinet level? See “Leveling it” on page 6.
Is the Temperature Control set too high?
Is the Temperature Control set too low?
