Wesuggestyou follow thesesteps:

1. Before calling for assistance...

Performance problems often resull from lillle lhings you can find and lix yourself wilhoul tools of any kind.

If your refrigerator will not operate:

lIs the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit wilh proper voltage? (See page 4.)

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

l Is the Refrigerator Control ON?

If there Is a rattling or jingling noise or unfamlllar sounds:

lIs something on lop of or behind the refrigerator making noise when the refrigerator is running?

l New features on your new refrigeralor make new sounds. You may be hearing air flowing from Ihe fans, limer clicks for the defrosting cycle, or delrosl waler draining in Ihe defrost pan.

If your Ice maker will not operate:

lHas the freezer had enough lime lo gel cold? Wilh a new refrigerator, lhis might lake overnight.

lIs the signal arm ON.. .in Ihe down position7

lIs the waler valve turned on? Is waler getting lo the ice maker?

If there Is water in the defrost pan:

l This is normal in hol, muggy wealher. The pan can even be half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so the pan does nol overflow.

If the light does not work:

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

lIs the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit wilh proper voltage? (See page 4.)

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:

lIs the condenser free of dust and linl?

lOn hot days, or if the room is warm, the motor naturally runs longer.

lIf the door has been opened a loI, or if a large amount of food has been put in, Ihe motor will run longer lo cool down Ihe interior.

Remember:

Motor running lime depends on diHeren1 Ihings: number of door openings, amount of food stored, temperalure of the room, setting of Ihe conlrols. Your new refrigerator may be larger than your old one so it has more space lo be cooled. I1also has a regular freezer instead of a frozen food com-

partment All this means better refrigeration and may require more running lime than vour old one.
