l. Before calling for assistance...

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

l. Before calling for assistance...

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

If your retrlgemtor will not operate:

l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage? [See page 4.)

l Hove you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?

l Is the Temperature Control turned ON?

If there Is a rattling or jingling nolse, or other un- familiar 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 draining into the defrost pan.

If your Ice maker will not operate:

lHas the freezer hod 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 In hot, muggy weather, this is normal. The pan con even be half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so the pan doesn’t overflow.

If the light does not work:

l Hove you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?

l Is the power supply cord plugged into Q live circuit with the proper voltage? (See page 4.)

If a bulb is burned out:

l See instructions for changing light bulbs on page 7, 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?

lOn hot days, or if the room is worm, the motor natu-

rally 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 Q frozen food comport- ment. All this means better refrigeration and may re- quire more running time than your old one.
