Settings and Functions In order for your new refrigerator to work properly, it is important that you understand its various features, controls, and how to use them. Power On/Off Switch (Power Interruption Switch) The power on/off switch is located behind your refrigerator’s top grille. It is used to turn the power off when cleaning the refrigerator. Your refrigerator arrives from the factory with the power interruption switch on. To turn power off, remove the center grille blade.
Settings and Functions Max Refrigerator Mode Max refrigerator mode adjusts the refrigerator temperature to the coldest setting for four hours, at the end of which the refrigerator’s temperature automatically returns to its previous setting. To activate the max refrigerator mode, simply press the ”ACTIVATE CONTROLS” pad, followed by the “MAX REF” pad. The “MAX REF” light will glow to let you know you’ve turned on the max refrigerator mode.
Refrigerator Spillproof Plus Shelves with Nano Technology These spillproof shelves contain liquids with no raised edges in order to provide extra shelf capacity. Standard Spillproof Shelves Standard spillproof shelves are constructed of polypropylene molded around the glass and metal rail. This design means that the shelves are completely enclosed and liquids can’t seep under the glass. This localizes spills and makes clean-up easier.
Refrigerator Deli Drawers To remove drawer, roll the drawer out to the stop. Then, on each side of the drawer, locate the black lever on the glides and lift up until the drawer disengages from the glides. Pull the drawer out the rest of the way. To replace the drawer, extend the glides out to the stop. Next, place the drawer onto the glides and push it back until the drawer engages the hook.
Freezer Wire Shelf Adjustment You can easily adjust your freezer’s shelves. To remove a shelf, simply tilt it up at the front, releasing the hooks from the shelf support. Then, pull the shelf straight out. To replace, guide the rear hooks of the shelf into the slots in the shelf supports. Then, tilt the shelf up at the front until the hooks drop into the slots. Next, lower the front of the shelf to a level position.
Food Storage Guide Storing Fresh Food Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material. This prevents food odor and taste transfer. For dated products, check use-by date to ensure freshness. To store leafy vegetables, remove store wrapping. Then tear off bruised and discolored areas. Wash the vegetables in cold water and drain, and then place them in a plastic bag or plastic container and store in your produce drawer.
