If you need service or assistance,
we suggest you follow rnesenves1eps:
1. Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.
If your refrigerator will not operate:
9 Is the electric cord plugged into a live circuit with proper voltage? (See page 4.)
l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?
l Is the Refrigerator Control ON?
If there is a rattling or jingling noise or unfamiliar sounds:
l Is something on top or behind the refrigerator making noise when the refrigerator is running?
l New features on your new refrigerator make new sounds. You may be hearing air flowing from the fans, timer clicks for the defrosting cycle, or defrost water draining in the defrost pan.
If your ice maker will not opemte:
l Has the freezer had enough time to get cold? With a new refrigerator, this might take overnight.
l Is the signal arm ON...in the down position?
l Is the water valve turned on? Is water getting to the ice maker?
If there is water in the defrost pan:
l This IS normal in hot, muggy weather. The pan can even be half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so the pan does not overflow.
If the light does not work:
l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?
l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage? [See page 4.)
If a bulb is burned out:
l See instructions for changing a light bulb on page 6.
Use appliance bulbs only.
If the motor seems to run too much:
l Is the condenser free from dust and lint?
l On hot days, or if the room is warm, the motor naturally runs longer.
l If the door has been opened a lot, or if a large amount of food has been put in, the motor will run longer to cool down the interior.
Remember: Motor running time depends on different
things; number of door openings, amount of food
stored; temperature of the room, setting of the controls.
Your new refrigerator may be larger than your old one so it has more space to be cooled. It also has a regular freezer instead of a frozen food compartment.
All this means better refrigeration and may require more running time than your old one.
