IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
This refrigerator must be properly installed
and located in accordance with the Installation
Instructions before it is used. Also see the
How to Connect Electricity section.
Do not attempt to stand on top of the refrigerator.
Doing so may result in bodily injury or damage to
the refrigerator.
Do not allow children to play with the refrigerator
or tamper with the controls.
Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on
the shelves in the refrigerator. They could damage
the refrigerator and seriously injure themselves.
Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may stick to these extremely cold surfaces.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
In refrigerators with automatic icemakers, avoid
contact with the moving parts of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating element located
on the bottom of the icemaker. Do not place
fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking
mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
Installation of the icemaker must be done by
a qualified service technician.
Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas;
clearances between the doors and between the
doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful
closing doors when children are in the area.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and
making repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be
performed by a qualified individual.
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, the
refrigerator should be unplugged in order to avoid
contact with a live wire filament. (A burned-out
light bulb may break when being replaced.)
NOTE: Setting either or both controls to 0 (off) does not
remove power to the light circuit.
Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.
Always clean the CustomCool
Tray after
thawing food.
DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few
days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator,
please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator
or Freezer:
Take off the doors and discard separately.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may
not easily climb inside.
If the refrigerator has a lock, make it unusable.
Refrigerants
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants,
which under federal law must be removed prior
to product disposal. If you are getting rid of an
old refrigeration product, check with the company
handling the disposal about what to do.

WARNING!
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with
an earthing plug which mates with a standard
earthed wall outlet to minimize the possibility of
electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly earthed.
Where an unearthed wall outlet is encountered,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation to
have it replaced with a properly earthed wall outlet.
The refrigerator should
always be plugged into
its own individual
electrical outlet.
This provides the
best performance
and also prevents
overloading house
wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires. Please refer to the rating plate on
the refrigerator for the correct voltage, wattage and
frequency. If the product plug does not fit your
outlet, the product should be fitted with a new plug.
IMPORTANT: The refitting of electric plugs and cables should
be done by a qualified technician or service agent. In some
countries the refitting of electric plugs and cables is only
permitted when the work is completed by a qualified technician.
If the power supply cord becomes damaged, it must
be replaced by a qualified service agent in order to
avoid a safety hazard.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight
out from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end.
When moving the refrigerator away from the wall,
be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
Mains lead replacement
If the mains lead on your refrigerator needs
replacing at any time, it must be replaced by a
special lead which is obtainable from your local
dealer. A charge will be made for the replacement
of the mains lead if you have damaged the lead.
The refrigerator must be positioned so that the plug
is accessible.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Insure proper earthing
exists before using.

About the temperature controls
on CustomCool
models. (for other models, see next page)
4
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 3°C for the refrigerator
compartment and -18°C for the freezer compartment. Allow 24 hours for the
temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended settings.
The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature as well as
the actual temperature in the refrigerator and freezer. The actual temperature
may vary slightly from the SET temperature based on usage and operating
environment.
Setting either or both controls to 0 (off) stops cooling in both the freezer and
refrigerator compartments, but does not shut off electrical power to the
refrigerator.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the temperature
controls. If this film was not removed during installation, remove it now.
To change the temperature, press and release the + or
pad. The SET light will come on and the display will
show the set temperature. To change the temperature,
tap either the + or pad until the desired temperature
is displayed. Refrigerator temperatures can be adjusted
between 1°C and 7°C and the freezer temperatures can
be adjusted between –21°C and –14°C.
Once the desired temperature has been set, the
temperature display will return to the actual refrigerator
and freezer temperatures after 5 seconds. Several
adjustments may be required. Each time you adjust
controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the
temperature you have set.
To turn the cooling system off, tap the + pad for either
the refrigerator or the freezer until the display shows
0 (off). To turn the unit back on, press the pad for either
the refrigerator or freezer. The SET light will illuminate
on the side you selected. Then press the pad again
(on the side where the SET light is illuminated) and it
will go to the preset points of –18°C for the freezer and
3°C for the refrigerator. Setting either or both controls
to 0 (off) stops cooling in both the freezer and
refrigerator compartments, but does not shut off
electrical power to the refrigerator.

About TurboCool
.
How it Works
TurboCool rapidly cools the refrigerator
compartment in order to more quickly cool
foods. Use TurboCool when adding a large amount
of food to the refrigerator compartment, putting
away foods after they have been sitting out at
room temperature or when putting away warm
leftovers. It can also be used if the refrigerator has
been without power for an extended period.
Once activated, the compressor will turn on
immediately and the fans will cycle on and off
at high speed as needed for eight hours. The
compressor will continue to run until the
refrigerator compartment cools to approximately
1°C, then it will cycle on and off to maintain this
setting. After 8 hours, or if TurboCool is pressed
again, the refrigerator compartment will return
to the original setting.
How to Use
Press TurboCool. The TurboCool indicator
light will come on.
After TurboCool is complete, the TurboCool
indicator light will go out.
NOTES:
The refrigerator temperature cannot be changed during
TurboCool.
The freezer temperature is not affected during TurboCool.
When opening the refrigerator door during TurboCool, the
fans will continue to run if they have cycled on.
About ClimateKeeper2.
(on some models)
How it Works
The new ClimateKeeper2
is the industry’s
most advanced refrigeration system, delivering
optimum temperature and humidity performance
to keep food garden fresh longer and reduce
freezer burn, while maintaining High level
efficiency.
The new ClimateKeeper2 system features two
evaporators—one for the refrigerator and one
for the freezer.
This provides two separate cooling systems for
the entire unit, and separates the airflow between
the fresh food and freezer sections during
normal cooling operations.*
This ensures that the humidity levels in the fresh
food section are significantly higher than in a
conventional system,** allowing fresh produce
and other unsealed foods to retain their moisture
content and freshness longer. Moisture sensitive
foods such as fresh fruit, salads, rice, etc., can
now be stored on open shelves without excessive
moisture loss. Due to the higher humidity in the
refrigerator, you may on occasion experience fog
or small amounts of moisture in the refrigerator
compartment. This is normal and may come and
go as different food loads and environmental
conditions change. Wipe dry with a paper towel
if desired.
The separate airflow system minimizes the
mixing of air between the two compartments,
which reduces odor transfer to improve the
taste of ice.
The ClimateKeeper2 system also reduces the
number of defrosting cycles in the freezer
evaporator, thereby reducing freezer burn.
*Freezer air is used in the CustomCool feature.
**Testing shows a higher level of humidity in
the Fresh Food section in ClimateKeeper2 refrigerators
versus conventional units.
About CustomCool.
(on some models)
The CustomCool
feature is a system of
dampers, a fan, a temperature thermistor
and a heater. Depending on the function
selected, a combination of these will be
used to quickly chill items, thaw items or
hold the pan at a specific temperature.
The pan is tightly sealed to prevent the pan’s
temperature from causing temperature
fluctuations in the rest of the refrigerator.
The controls for this pan are located
at the top of the refrigerator with the
temperature controls.
Some CustomCool models feature a beverage
center. It is designed to store beverages at
colder temperatures. Select the Beverage
Center pad if you like to keep extra-chilled
refreshments on hand.
How it Works

Empty the pan. Place the Chill/Thaw
tray in the pan with the CustomCool
plate facing down to chill and store
items, or with the CustomCool plate
facing up to thaw items. Place the
items on the tray and close the pan
completely.
Select the ExpressThaw
,
ExpressChill
or SelectTemp
pad. The display and SET light will
come on. Tap the pad until the light
appears next to the desired setting.
Use the chart to determine the best
setting to use.
To stop a feature before it is finished,
tap that feature’s pad until no options
are selected and the display is off.
During ExpressThaw and ExpressChill,
the display on the controls will count
down the time in the cycle.
After the ExpressThaw cycle is
complete, the pan will reset to the
MEAT setting (–1°C) to help preserve
thawed items until they are used.
The displayed actual temperature of
the CustomCool pan may vary slightly
from the SET temperature based on
usage and operating environment.
NOTE: For food safety reasons, it is recommended
that foods be wrapped in plastic wrap when using
ExpressThaw. This will help contain meat juices
and improve thawing performance.

stack and any shelf or basket above it.
Packages may hang over the front of shelves
but must remain 15 mm from doors.
Food to be frozen must not be placed
in direct contact with food in storage.
If food is to be frozen every day, it may
be necessary to reduce the quantity to
be frozen.
If a quantity of food needs to be frozen,
set the freezer control to its coldest setting.
After the food is frozen, reset the freezer
control to its initial position.
Food is most quickly frozen on the middle
three shelves of the freezer compartment
and most slowly in the freezer door
shelves.
Do not store commercially quick-frozen
food longer than the time recommended
by the food manufacturers.
If the power to the appliance is shut off for
an extended time or if the refrigerating
system fails, do not open the doors unless
absolutely necessary. When it is necessary,
close them as quickly as possible so the
frozen food will stay frozen as long as
possible.
The freezer door storage shelves marked
with a two-star label are only appropriate
for the storage of previously frozen food.
Effervescent drinks should not be stored in the
freezer compartment.

The convertible meat pan has its own cold air
duct to allow a stream of cold air from the
freezer compartment to flow to the pan.
The variable temperature control regulates the
air flow from the Climate Keeper.
Set the control to the (coldest) setting to
store fresh meats.
Set the control to (cold) to convert the
pan to normal refrigerator temperature and
provide extra vegetable storage space. The cold
air duct is turned off. Variable settings between
these extremes can be selected.
Crisper Removal
The top crispers can easily be removed by
pulling the drawer straight out and lifting
the drawer up and over the stop location.
If the door prevents you from taking out the
drawers, first try to remove the door bins.
If this does not offer enough clearance, the
refrigerator will need to be rolled forward until
the door opens enough to slide the drawers
out. In some cases, when you roll the
refrigerator out, you will need to move the
refrigerator to the left or right as you roll it out.
To remove the bottom crisper:
Pull the drawer out to the stop position.
Rotate all four swing locks to the unlock
position.
Lift the front of the drawer up and out.
To replace the bottom crisper:
Make sure all four swing locks are in the
unlock position.
Place the sides of the drawer into the
drawer supports, making sure the swing
locks fit on the drawer slots.
Lock all four swing locks by rotating them
to the lock position.
About the automatic icemaker.
A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
15
Automatic Icemaker
The icemaker will produce seven cubes per
cycle–approximately 100–130 cubes in a
24-hour period, depending on freezer
compartment temperature, room temperature,
number of door openings and other use
conditions.
To access the icemaker: Pull the shelf above
the ice drawer straight out. Always be sure
to replace the shelf.
If the refrigerator is operated before the water
connection is made to the icemaker, set the
power switch in the O position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, set the power switch to
the l position.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time the
icemaker fills with water.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools
to –10°C. A newly-installed refrigerator may take
12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow
the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm,
the icemaker will stop producing ice. It is
normal for several cubes to be joined together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
If ice cubes get stuck in the icemaker, the green
power light will blink. To correct this, set the
power switch to O and remove the cubes. Set
the power switch to I to restart the icemaker.
After the icemaker has been turned on again,
there will be a delay of about 45 minutes before
the icemaker resumes operation.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple times
when making one batch of ice.
WARNING:Connect to potable water
supply only. Installation of the icemaker must be
done by a qualified service technician.
Special note about ClimateKeeper2
dispenser
models:
Dispenser models have a tilt-out ice bin.
The bin can be tilted out as shown in the
illustrations, and it will hold itself up while
you take ice out or turn the icemaker power
switch on and off. Be sure to put the bin
back in place before closing the door.
To restore your ice level from an empty bucket
stage, the following steps are recommended:
12 hours after the first batch of ice has
fallen into the bin, dispense 3 to 4 cubes.
After an additional 6 hours, dispense 3 to
4 cubes again.
These steps will restore your ice level in the
shortest amount of time.
Pull the upper freezer shelf straight
out to access the icemaker. Always
be sure to replace the shelf. The
shelf can be used for storage.

Important Facts About Your Dispenser
Do not add ice from trays or bags to
the storage drawer. It may not crush or
dispense well.
Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of
narrow glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the
chute or cause the door in the chute to
freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute,
poke it through with a wooden spoon.
Beverages and foods should not be
quick-chilled in the ice storage drawer.
Cans, bottles or food packages in the
storage drawer may cause the icemaker
or auger to jam.
To keep dispensed ice from missing
the glass, put the glass close to, but not
touching, the dispenser opening.
Some crushed ice may be dispensed even
though you selected CUBED ICE. This
happens occasionally when a few cubes
accidentally get directed to the crusher.
After crushed ice is dispensed, some water
may drip from the chute.
Sometimes a small mound of snow will
form on the door in the ice chute. This
condition is normal and usually occurs
when you have dispensed crushed ice
repeatedly. The snow will eventually
evaporate.
CAUTION: Some products such as water ices should
not be consumed too cold.

About the ice and water dispenser. (on some models)
To Use the Dispenser
Select CUBED ICE , CRUSHED ICE
or WATER .
Press the glass gently against the top of the
dispenser pad/cradle.
The spill shelf is not self-draining. To reduce
water spotting, the shelf and its grille should
be cleaned regularly.
If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is
first installed, there may be air in the water line
system. Press the dispenser pad/cradle for at least
two minutes to remove trapped air from the water
line and to fill the water system. To flush out
impurities in the water line, throw away the
first six glassfuls of water.
CAUTION: Never put fingers or any other
objects into the ice crusher discharge opening.
Locking the Dispenser (on some models)
Press the LOCK CONTROL
pad for 3 seconds to lock
the dispenser and control
panel. To unlock, press
and hold the pad again
for 3 seconds.
Dispenser Light (on some models)
This pad turns the night
light in the dispenser on
and off. The light also
comes on when the
dispenser pad/cradle
is pressed. If this light
burns out, it should be
replaced with a 6 watt
12V maximum bulb.
Quick Ice (on some models)
When you need ice in
a hurry, press this pad to
speed up ice production.
This will increase ice
production for the following
48 hours or until you press
the pad again.
Door Alarm (on some models)
To set the alarm, press this
pad until the indicator light
comes on. This alarm will
sound if either door is open
for more than 3 minutes.
The light goes out and the
beeping stops when you
close the door.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.
Cleaning the Outside
The dispenser drip area, beneath the grille, should
be wiped dry. Water left in this area may leave
deposits. Remove the deposits by adding
undiluted vinegar to the well. Soak until the
deposits disappear or become loose enough
to rinse away.
The dispenser cradle (on dispenser models).
Before cleaning, open the freezer door part
way to prevent dispensing of ice or water when
cleaning. Clean the cradle with a warm water
and baking soda solution—about 15 ml of
baking soda to 1 liter of water. Rinse thoroughly
and wipe dry.
The door handles and trim. Clean with a cloth
dampened with soapy water. Dry with a
soft cloth.
Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean cloth
lightly dampened with kitchen appliance wax
or mild liquid dish detergent. Dry and polish
with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled dish cloth
or wet towel. These may leave a residue that can
erode the paint. Do not use scouring pads, powdered
cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing bleach
because these products can scratch and weaken the
paint finish.

For long vacations or absences, remove food and
unplug the refrigerator. Clean the interior with a
baking soda solution of 15 ml of baking soda to
1 liter of water. Leave the doors open.
Set the icemaker power switch to the O position
and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.
If the temperature can drop below freezing, have
a qualified servicer drain the water supply system
to prevent serious property damage due to
flooding.
Behind the Refrigerator
Be careful when moving the refrigerator away
from the wall. All types of floor coverings can be
damaged, particularly cushioned coverings and
those with embossed surfaces.
Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it to
position by pushing it straight in. Moving the
refrigerator in a side direction may result in
damage to the floor covering or refrigerator.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure you
don’t roll over the power cord or icemaker supply line.
Preparing for Vacation
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as shelves and
drawers by taping them securely in place
to prevent damage.
When using a hand truck to move the
refrigerator, do not rest the front or back of
the refrigerator against the hand truck. This
could damage the refrigerator. Handle only
from the sides of the refrigerator.
Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright position
during moving.
To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking
soda in the refrigerator and freezer
compartments.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. If this
is not practical, wring excess moisture out
of sponge or cloth when cleaning around
switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution–
about 15 ml of baking soda to one liter of water.
This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse and
wipe dry.
Use of any cleaning solution other than that which is
recommended, especially those that contain
petroleum distillates, can crack or damage the
interior of the refrigerator.
Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot water
because the extreme temperature difference
may cause them to break. Handle glass shelves
carefully. Bumping tempered glass can cause
it to shatter.
Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the
dishwasher.
The chill/thaw tray is dishwasher safe.

Trim kits and decorator panels.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Before You Begin
Some models are equipped with trim kits that allow you to install door panels.
Panels less than 6 mm thick
When installing wood panels less than 6 mm thick, you need to create a filler panel, such as 3 mm cardboard, that
will fit between the face of the door and the wood panel. If you are installing the pre-cut decorator panels, pre-cut
filler panels are included in the kit. The combined thickness of the decorator or wood panel and the filler panel
should be 6 mm.
For Built-In Style models
19 mm or Raised Panel
A raised panel design screwed or glued to a 6 mm thick backing, or a 19 mm routed board can be used.
The raised portion of the panel must be fabricated to permit clearances of at least 5.1 cm from the handle
side for fingertip clearance.
Panels thicker than 6mm, up to 19 mm max, will require that the outer 8 mm of panel perimeter be no thicker
than 6 mm.
