KitchenAid KRFF507HPS French Door Bottom Mount Quick Start Guide

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Before operating this appliance, make sure it has been properly installed according to the appliance's Owner's Manual.

The control center is located at the top front of the refrigerator compartment.

NOTE: The display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn off automatically and enter "sleep" mode when the control buttons and dispenser paddles have not been used for 2 minutes or more. Press any control button to reactivate the display screen. The home screen will appear as shown.

For your convenience, the temperature controls are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the controls are still set to the recommended setting as shown.

When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are still set to the recommended set points. The factory recommended set points are 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator and 0°F (-18°C) for the freezer.

• The recommended settings should be correct for normal household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
  NOTE: Areas such as a garage, basement, or porch may have higher humidity or extreme temperatures. You may need to adjust the temperature away from the recommended settings to accommodate for these conditions.
• When the power is on, the temperature display shows the set point temperature of the compartment.
• Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your food may spoil.
  NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer controls to a colder than recommended setting will not cool the compartments any faster.
• If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not blocked before adjusting the controls.
