Abstract
A method for adjusting a target temperature of a refrigerator appliance may include detecting, from an indirect temperature input selector, a temperature adjustment sequence corresponding to a change in a target temperature of a chilled chamber. The method may include adjusting, via a cooling system, the target temperature of the chilled chamber in response to detecting the temperature adjustment sequence.
Claims18
A refrigerator appliance comprising:
- a cabinet defining a chilled chamber;
- an indirect temperature input selector disposed at the cabinet;
- a cooling system comprising a compressor, a condenser, an expansion device, and an evaporator being connected in fluid series;
- a controller in operable communication with the indirect temperature input selector, the controller being configured for:
- detecting, from the indirect temperature input selector, a temperature adjustment sequence corresponding to a change in a target temperature of the chilled chamber, and
- adjusting, via the cooling system, the target temperature of the chilled chamber in response to detecting the temperature adjustment sequence.
