LIGHTS DO NOT WORK
Check if... Then...
The power supply cord is unplugged. Firmly plug the cord into a live outlet with proper voltage.
Light bulb is loose in the socket. Unplug the refrigerator. Gently remove the bulb and reinsert.
Then plug in refrigerator and reset the refrigerator control.
Light bulb has burned out. Replace with an appliance bulb of the same wattage, size and
shape available at your local hardware store. (See the LIGHT
BULB REPLACEMENT section on page 34.)
Unplug the refrigerator prior to replacement.
A door has been open for seven minutes. Shutting the doors for one second will allow the light bulbs to
come back on.
VIBRATION OR RATTLING NOISE
Check if...
The refrigerator is not resting solidly on
the floor.
Then...
Floor is weak or uneven or leveling legs need adjusting.
See INSTALLATION section on pages 10 and 19.
COMPRESSOR MOTOR SEEMS TO RUN TOO MUCH
Check if... Then...
The refrigerator that was replaced was an older
model.
The room temperature is hotter than normal.
The door is opened often or a large amount of food
has just been added.
The refrigerator was recently plugged in and the
refrigerator control was set correctly.
The refrigerator control is not set correctly for the
surrounding conditions.
The doors are not closed completely.
The back cover is dirty.
Modern refrigerators with more storage space require more
operating time.
NOTE: Even though this refrigerator may run more than your
older one it will still use less energy.
The motor will run longer under warm conditions. At normal
room temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to
80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run
even more often.
Adding food and opening the door warms the refrigerator.
It is normal for the refrigerator to run longer in order to cool the
refrigerator back down. 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.
See the FOOD STORAGE GUIDE section on page 24.
The refrigerator will take up to 24 hours to cool completely.
See the ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS section on page
23.
Push the doors firmly shut. If they will not shut all the way, see
DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY on page 42.
A dirty back cover prevents air transfer and makes the motor
work harder. Clean the back cover. Refer to the CARE AND
CLEANING section on pages 33-34.
