AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER DOES NOT WORK

Check if...

Icemaker power switch in the O (off) position.

Water supply turned off or not connected.

Freezer compartment too warm.

Piled up cubes in the storage bin cause the icemaker to shut off.

Move the switch to the I (on) position.

See the Connecting the Water Line section.

Wait 24 hours for the freezer to reach its ideal temperature.

Level cubes by hand.

TEMPERATURE

IS TOO WARM OR THERE IS INTERIOR MOISTURE BUILD UP

Check if...

Then...

The air vents are blocked. Cold air circulates from the freezer to the fresh food section and

back again through air vents in the wall dividing the two sections.

The doors are opened often.

Locate air vents by using your hand to sense airflow and

move all packages that block vents and restrict airflow. Refer to Multi-FlowSectionfor the location of

air vents.

When the door is opened, warm humid air is allowed into the refrigerator. The more the door is opened, the faster the humidity builds up, and the more warm air the refrigerator must cool. In order to keep the refrigerator cool, try to get everything you need out of the refrigerator at once, keep

food organized so it is easy to find and close the door as soon as the food is removed.

The control is not set correctly for the surrounding conditions.

A large amount of food has just been added to the refrigerator or freezer,

The food is not packaged correctly.

The doors are not closing completely.

The weather is humid.

A self-defrost cycle was completed.

LIGHTS DO NOT WORK

Check if...

The power supply cord is unplugged.

Light bulb is loose in the socket.

Light bulb has burned out.

Refer to the Setting the Controls Section.

Wait 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize or even out. If the temperature is too cold or too warm, move the dial one number at a time.

Adding food warms the refrigerator. It can take a few hours for the refrigerator to return to normal temperature.

Wrap food tightly and wipe off damp containers prior to storing in the refrigerator to avoid moisture accumulation. If necessary, repackage food according to the guidelines in the Food Storage Guide Section.

See Doors will not close completely.

In humid weather, air carries moisture into refrigerator when doors are opened.

It is normal for droplets to form on the back wall after the refrigerator self-defrosts.

Then...

Firmly plug the cord into a live outlet with proper voltage.

Turn the refrigerator control to the OFF position and unplug the refrigerator. Gently remove the bulb and reinsert. Then plug in refrigerator and reset the refrigerator control.

Unplug the refrigerator prior to bulb replacement. Replace the old bulb with a new appliance bulb with same size and shape from your local hardware store. (See Changing the Light Bulb Section).
