To avoid electric shock, which can

CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
Copper tubing is recommended for the
water supply line. Water supply tubing
made of ¼” plastic is not recommended
since it greatly increases the potential for
water leaks. Manufacturer nor retailer
will be responsible for any damage if
plastic tubing is used for supply line.
DO NOT install water supply tubing
in areas where temperatures fall
below freezing.
Chemicals from a malfunctioning
softener can damage the ice maker.
If the ice maker is connected to soft
water, ensure that the softener is
maintained and working properly.

Temperature Adjustment
• Adjust temperature gradually: adjust the
dial in small increments, allowing the
temperature to stabilize.
For colder temperatures, adjust the dial
towards Coldest.
For warmer temperatures, adjust the
dial towards Cold.
NOTE
When rst turning refrigerator on,
adjust control to Recommended. This is
the recommended initial setting. After
24 hours, adjust the controls as needed.
IMPORTANT
Adjusting the refrigerator/freezer
temperature control to “o” turns o the
compressor and prevents the refrigerator
from cooling, but does not disconnect
the power to the light bulb and other
electrical components. To turn o power
to your refrigerator, you must unplug the
power cord from the wall outlet.
You may want to set the freezer to be
colder or less cold than results obtained
from the Refrigerator control setting.
Push the freezer control slide up in small
increments toward coldest or down toward
cold. Adjusting the freezer control will also
change the temperature in the refrigerator
compartment. Adjusting toward coldest
will raise and toward cold will lower the
refrigerator compartment temperature.
To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates
air in the refrigerator and freezer
compartments. For good circulation, do
not block cold air vents with food items.
Setting the Temperature Controls
NOTE
If your unit is in a garage or area where
the temperature is below 55°F, adjust
the freezer control to the coldest setting
to improve performance.
IMPORTANT
Adjusting the refrigerator temperature
control to “0” turns o the compressor
and prevents the refrigerator from
cooling, but does not disconnect the
power to the light bulb and other
electrical components. To turn o power
to your refrigerator, you must unplug the
power cord from the wall outlet.
Refrigerator Controls

CAUTION
Do not clean glass shelves or covers
with warm water when they are
cold. Shelves and covers may break
if exposed to sudden temperature
changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter
into many small, pebble-size pieces.
This is normal. Glass shelves and
covers are heavy. Use both hands when
removing them to avoid dropping.
