User Manual Frigidaire FGHB2844LFE Gallery 27.8 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator

Most French-Door refrigerators are equipped with shelves that are supported at the back of the refrigerator. To adjust your shelves, remove all items from shelf / shelves and lift the front edge up. Next, pull the shelf out and replace the shelf by inserting the hooks at the rear of the shelf into the wall bracket. Lower the shelf into the desired slot and lock into position.

Some models have glass shelves that slide out for easy access. The shelves slide out independently of their mounting brackets, just pull the front of the shelf forward. Shelves can be extended as far as the stopper will allow but are not removable from their mounting brackets. Our door bins (vary by model) are removable for easy cleaning but some of them have fixed positions while others can be adjusted.

To change the position of an adjustable door bin simply remove all items from the bin and then grip the bin firmly with both hands and lift it upward. Next, remove the bin and place it just above the desired position. Then, lower the bin onto the supports until it's locked in place and place the bin liner into bin (if removed).

To remove your upper freezer basket, find the side where the basket frame is aligned to the clip opening (either left or right side). If not aligned on either side, push the basket sideways until it is aligned by grabbing the basket wire frame close to the frontal clip and pull it up to take the basket frame out. Grab the basket frame close to the rear clip and pull up until it comes out of the clip.

Once one side of the basket is off the clips and retainers, slide the basket sideways until the other side of the frame is aligned with the clip openings on the opposite side of the freezer. In the same way, pull the basket frame from the frontal and rear clips until it is out of the clips. Remove the basket and reverse the steps to reinstall.

Most alarms are designed to alert of you of changes in your refrigerator or an action on your part is required. Here is a summary of common alarms. For more information, please refer to your Owner’s Manual as they may vary by model.

Power Failure or PF – In the event of a power failure, your unit will display Power Failure or PF. Simply acknowledge the alarm (once power is restored) by pressing “Alarm Reset”. The refrigerator will then resume normal operations. If your power was out for an extended period of time, the HIGH TEMP alarm may also illuminate or alarm until the unit reaches a safe operating temperature.

H or HI or High Temp – Indicates the freezer and/or refrigerator section of your appliance have exceeded the temperature threshold. This is usually caused by inadvertently not closing the door all the way or leaving the door open for an extended period of time. The alarm can be muted but it will stay active (or illuminated) until the temperature resumes normal operation. - If the temperature of your freezer reaches 26 degrees Fahrenheit or greater, the alarm will activate. - If the temperature of your refrigerator reaches 55 degrees Fahrenheit or greater, the alarm will activate.

Door Ajar – If the freezer or refrigerator doors have been left open for 5 minutes or more, an alarm will sound and the Door Ajar indicator will illuminate on the display. Close the door and press the Set key to reset any alarms.

SB or Sb – Your refrigerator is in Sabbath mode. Refer to your Owner’s Manual to deactivate.

DI SP – Indicates there is an ice cube(s) jammed in the ice chute for an extended period of time. Simply open the door and look in the ice chute and remove any blockage.

Depending on the type of compressor your refrigerator has could impact how frequently it runs. It is normal for the compressor to go on and off frequently.

The thermostat keeps the refrigerator at a constant temperature. Single speed compressors (most Top-Freezer and Side-by-Side refrigerator models)

It is normal for the refrigerator to work longer when the room or outside weather is too warm or hot.If the refrigerator doors are opened too frequently or too long allows warm air to enter the product and therefore causes it to run more often.

Freezer temperature may be set too cold. It is recommended to set the refrigerator section to a warmer setting – this will adjust the freezer temperature.

Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize.

Check the door seal/gasket. Air leaks in the door seal/gasket will cause the refrigerator to run longer in order to maintain desired temperatures.

Condenser may be dirty. See the Care and Cleaning section of your Owner’s Manual.

Variable speed compressor (most French-Door and Multi-Door refrigerator models). Your variable speed compressor is designed to run 100% of the time except during the defrost cycle. At times it may even run faster, such as after a defrost cycle.
