Problem

Cause

Correction

Door(s) will not

close.

• Door was closed too hard,

causing other door to open

slightly.

• Refrigerator is not level.

It rocks on the floor when

moved slightly.

• Close both doors gently.

•

Ensure floor is level and solid, and can

adequately support the refrigerator.

Contact a carpenter to correct a

sagging or sloping floor.

Drawers are

difficult to move.

• Food is touching shelf on

top of drawer.

• Track that drawers slide on

is dirty.

• Remove top layer of items in drawer.
• Ensure drawer is properly installed on

track.

• Clean drawer, rollers, and track. See

table of Care and Cleaning Tips in

not run.

• Refrigerator is in defrost

cycle.

• Plug at electrical outlet is

disconnected.

• House fuse blown or

tripped circuit breaker.

• Power outage.

• This is normal for a fully automatic defrost

refrigerator. The defrost cycle occurs

periodically, lasting about 30 minutes.

• Ensure plug is tightly pushed into

outlet.

• Check/replace fuse with a 15 amp

time-delay fuse. Reset circuit breaker.

• Check house lights. Call local electric

company.

Refrigerator runs

too much or too

long.

• Room or outside weather

is hot.

• Refrigerator has recently

been disconnected for a

period of time.

• Automatic ice maker is

operating.

• Doors are opened too

frequently or too long.

• Fresh Food/freezer door

may be slightly open.

• Fresh Food/freezer gasket

is dirty, worn, cracked, or

poorly fitted.

• It is normal for the refrigerator to work

longer under these conditions.

• It takes 8-12 hours for the refrigerator

to cool down completely.

• Ice maker operation causes

refrigerator to run slightly more.

• Warm air entering the refrigerator causes

it to run more. Open doors less often.

and off to keep temperature constant.
