Before you call for service, check the following items.

1.The refrigerator does not run.

•Check the power supply at the wall outlet.

•Make sure the power supply cord is plugged firmly.

•Check the fuse box for blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker.

2.Food temperature is too warm.

•Check the temperature control dial setting. See “TEMPERATURE CONTROL”. Check spaces among the foodstuffs. Overcrowded shelves prevent good air circulation.

•Make sure the refrigerator is not in direct sunlight.

•Check the spacing at the top, sides and rear of the refrigerator. See “INSTALLATION”

•Check the door opening-too-frequent and too long.

3.Food in the fresh food compartment freezes.

•Check the temperature control dial setting of the fresh food compartment. See “TEMPERA-

TURE CONTROL”.

•Make sure food storage is proper.

4.The refrigerator sounds noisy

•Check for weak floor.

•Make sure the refrigerator is installed firmly.

•Make sure the back of the refrigerator does not touch the wall.

5.Moisture condenses on the exterior of the cabinet:

•When humidity is too high, the cabinet is liable to sweat. This is the same phenomenon as moisture condensing on a glass of iced tea on a hot summer day. If moisture does not disappear, wipe the cabinet with a cloth.

6.Moisture condenses in the refrigerator.

•Have the door been opened often?

•Is it very humid? Some moisture is normal on humid days. In humid weather air carries moisture into refrigerator when door is opened. The moisture will disappear after running refrigerator for a few hours with door closed.

•If moisture dose not disappear wipe them with a cloth.

7.The lamp does not light.

•Check that the lamp is not loose. If the lamp remains lit for a long time with the door kept open, the lamp may become loose due to its generation of heat.
