REFRIGERATOR OPERATION
THE REFRIGERATOR WILL NOT OPERATE
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
■
Power cord unplugged? Plug into a
grounded 3 prong outlet.
■
Is outlet working?
Plug in a lamp to see if
the outlet is working.
■
Household fuse blown or circuit breaker
tripped?
Replace the fuse or reset the
circuit breaker. If the problem continues,
call an electrician.
■
Are controls on?
Make sure the refrigerator
controls are on. Refer “Using the Controls.”
■
Is refrigerator defrosting? Your
refrigerator will regularly run an automatic
defrost cycle. Recheck in 30 minutes to see
if it is operating.
■
New installation? Allow 24 hours following
installation for the refrigerator to cool
completely.
NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls
to the coldest setting will not cool either
compartment more quickly.
THE MOTOR SEEMS TO RUN TOO MUCH
Your new refrigerator may run longer than your
old one due to its high-efficiency compressor
and fans. The unit may run even longer if the
room is warm, a large food load is added, doors
are opened often, or if the doors have been left
open. If there is a “whooshing” sound, check the
following:
THE REFRIGERATOR IS NOISY
Refrigerator noise has been reduced over the
years. Due to this reduction, you may hear
intermittent noises from your new refrigerator
that you did not notice from your old model.
Below are listed some normal sounds with an
explanation.
■
Buzzing - heard when the water valve
opens to fill the ice maker
■
Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to
optimize performance
■
Rattling - flow of refrigerant, water line, or
from items placed on top of the refrigerator
■
Sizzling/Gurgling - water dripping on the
heater during defrost cycle
■
Popping - contraction/expansion of inside
walls, especially during initial cool-down
■
Water running - may be heard when ice
melts during the defrost cycle and runs into
the drain pan
■
Creaking/Cracking - occurs as ice is being
ejected from the ice maker mold
THERE IS NO AUDIBLE DOOR OPEN ALARM
Has the door been open less than 5 minutes?
The door open alarm will only flash when the
door has been open for 5 minutes. The audible
alarm will sound the first time the door is left
open for more than 5 minutes. Subsequent
door open alarms will only flash. You must reset
the audible alarm each time. Refer “Using the
Control(s).”
THE DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY
■
Door blocked open?
Move food packages
away from door.
■
Bin or shelf in the way? Push bin or shelf
back in the correct position.
THE DOORS ARE DIFFICULT TO OPEN
■
Are the gaskets dirty or sticky?
Clean
gaskets with mild soap and warm water.
THE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK
■
Is the refrigerator in Sabbath mode?
Refer “Using the Controls.”
■
Has the door been open more than 10
minutes?
Refer “Using the Controls.”
