  • Page 13: Temperature Control Operation

    TEMPERATURE CONTROL OPERATION 1. Freezer temperature is regulated by an air sensing thermostat located at the top rear of the refrigerator compartment. A sensing tube goes into a well which routes the tube into the freezer section. This thermostat actuates the compressor to circulate refrigerant through the sealed system.
  • Page 14: Adaptive Defrost Function

    2. Refrigerator temperature is regulated by an air damper control. This control governs the amount of refrigerated air entering the refrigerator compartment. (Fig. 11) The control should be set to maintain 28°F to 40°F fresh food temperature. Air Supply to Freezer Back Refrigerator (Air Baffle)
  • Page 15: Adaptive Defrost Operation

    ADAPTIVE DEFROST OPERATION 1. This unit is equipped with Adaptive Defrost Control (ADC). (Fig. 12) A defrost cycle occurs after a predetermined length of compressor run time. The length of accumulated compressor run time is determined by a microprocessor that monitors the length of a defrost cycle (the time) interval between energizing the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat opening).
  • Page 16 4. Vacation Mode Defrost Interval Interruption: The Vacation Mode Defrost Interval will be interrupted when either the freezer or refrigerator door is opened. • The next defrost cycle will occur 8 hours after the door is opened and the ADC will revert to CRTD (1) = 8 hours.
