Whirlpool ET1 8MK manual Before calling for assistance

Page 15

If you need service or assistance, we suggest you follow these four steps:

1. Before calling for assistance.. .

Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.

It your refrtgerator will not operate: l Is the electric cord plugged in?

lIs a fuse blown or a circuit breaker trapped? l Is the Refrigerator Control turned ON?

I? there Is a rattling or jlngllng noise, or other unfamlllar sounds:

l Is something on top or behind the refrigerator mak- ing 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, defrost water drarning into the defrost pan

If your ice maker will not operate:

l Has the freezer had enough time to get cold? With a new refrigerator, this might take overnight

lIs the signal arm ON., .rn the down posrtion?

l Is the water valve turned on? Is water getting to the ice maker?

If there Is water in the defrost pan:

l In hot, muggy weather, this ISnormal The pan can even be half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so the pan doesn’t overflow.

If the ltght doesn’t work:

l Check fuses and circuit breakers. Make sure It’s plugged in.

If a bulb Is burned out:

l See instructions for changing light bulbs on page 6. Use appliance bulbs only.

If the motor seems to run too much:

l Is the condenser, behind the base grille, free of 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 dif- ferent things: number of door openings. amount of food stored, temperature of the room, setting of the controls.

And, 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.
