The motor seems to run too much

■Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the motor to run longer under warm conditions. At normal outdoor temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even more of the time.

■Has a large amount of food just been added to the refrigerator? Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator. It is normal for the motor to run longer in order to cool the refrigerator back down.

■Is the door opened often? Expect the motor to run longer when this occurs. In order to conserve energy, 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.

■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? See “Using the Control.”

■Is the door closed completely? Push the door firmly shut. If it will not shut all the way, see “The door will not close completely” later in this section.

■Are the condenser coils dirty? This obstructs air transfer and makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils. See “Cleaning.”

Temperature is too warm

■Is the door opened often? Be aware that the refrigerator will warm when this occurs. 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.

■Has a large amount of food just been added to the refrigerator? Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator. It can take several hours for the refrigerator to return to the normal temperature.

■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? See “Using the Control.”

■Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not install the refrigerator behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.

There is interior moisture buildup

■Is the door opened often? To avoid humidity buildup, 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. When the door is opened, humidity from the room air enters the refrigerator. The more often the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up, especially when the room itself is very humid.

■Is it humid? It is normal for moisture to build up inside the refrigerator when the air is humid.

■Is the food packaged correctly? Check that all food is securely wrapped. Wipe off damp food containers before placing in the refrigerator.

■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? See “Using the Control.”

The door is difficult to open

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

■Is the gasket dirty or sticky? Clean the gasket and the surface that it touches. Rub a thin coat of paraffin wax on the gasket following cleaning.

The door will not close completely

■Are food packages blocking the door open? Rearrange containers so that they fit more tightly and take up less space.

■Are the shelves out of position? Put the shelves back into their correct positions. See “Refrigerator Use” for more information.
