Systems and methods for adjusting appliance control settings

1. A method for adjusting temperature controls of a refrigerator appliance, comprising:

scanning an indicium with a user interface separate from the refrigerator appliance, the indicium positioned on the refrigerator appliance;

transmitting data corresponding to a registration request from the user interface to a server, the data corresponding to the registration request comprising a location of the refrigerator appliance; and

receiving, at the user interface, data corresponding to a temperature control adjustment instruction from the server in response to an ambient temperature at the location of the refrigerator appliance comprising one of the ambient temperature less than a lower threshold temperature and the ambient temperature greater than an upper threshold temperature,

wherein a temperature setting of the refrigerator appliance is only manually adjustable.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indicium comprises one of a barcode and a QR-code.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user interface comprises one of a cellphone and a tablet.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the location comprises GPS data transmitted by the user interface.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the lower threshold temperature is no greater than thirteen degrees Celsius.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the upper threshold temperature is no less than thirteen degrees Celsius.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ambient temperature at the location of the refrigerator appliance is determined based on a weather service at the location of the refrigerator appliance.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the weather service comprises average weather data corresponding to a postal code, the average weather data is indicative of the temperature control adjustment instruction received by the user interface.

9. A method for adjusting temperature controls of a refrigerator appliance, comprising:

receiving, at a server, data corresponding to a registration request from a user interface located proximate the refrigerator appliance, the data corresponding to the registration request comprising a location of the refrigerator appliance;

determining an ambient temperature at the location of the refrigerator appliance; and

transmitting, from the server, data corresponding to a temperature control adjustment instruction to the user interface in response to the ambient temperature at the location of the refrigerator appliance comprising one of the ambient temperature less than a lower threshold temperature and the ambient temperature greater than an upper threshold temperature,

wherein a temperature setting of the refrigerator appliance is only manually adjustable.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the user interface comprises one of a cellphone and a tablet.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the location comprises GPS data transmitted by the user interface.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the lower threshold temperature is no greater than thirteen degrees Celsius.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the upper threshold temperature is no less than thirteen degrees Celsius.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the ambient temperature at the location of the refrigerator appliance is determined based on a weather service at the location of the refrigerator appliance.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the weather service comprises average weather data corresponding to a postal code, the average weather data is indicative of the temperature control adjustment instruction received by the user interface.

16. A method for adjusting temperature controls of an appliance, comprising:

scanning an indicium located on an appliance with a user interface separate from the refrigerator appliance, the user interface being separate from the appliance;

transmitting a data from the user interface to a server, the data comprising a location of the appliance; and

receiving, at the user interface from the server, data corresponding to instructions for a control adjustment based upon the location of the appliance,

wherein a temperature setting of the appliance is only manually adjustable.
