| |||||
if there is water in the defrost pan:
l In hot, muggy weather, this is normal The pan can
even be almost full. Make sure the refrrgerator is level so the pan doesn’t overflow.
if the lights aren’t working:
l Check fuses and crrcurt breakers. Make sure It’s plugged In
if a bulb is burned out:
l See instructions for changing light bulbs on page 10
Use appliance bulbs only
If the motor seems to run too much:
l Is the condenser, behind the base grrlle, 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 WIII 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 focd
compartment. All this means better refrigeration and may require more running time than your old one
