BEFORE YOU CALL TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE PROBLEM REFRIGERATOR OPERATION Refrigerator does not run. Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. This list includes common occurences that are not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance. CAUSE CORRECTION • Refrigerator is plugged into a circuit that has a ground fault interrupt. • Temperature control is in the OFF position. • Refrigerator may not be plugged in, or plug may be loose. • House fuse blown or tripped circuit breaker. • Power outage. • Use another circuit. If you are unsure about the outlet,have it checked by a certified technician. • See Setting the Temperature Control Section. • Ensure plug is tightly pushed into outlet. • Check/replace fuse with a 15 amp time-delay fuse. Reset circuit breaker. • Check house lights. Call local Electric Company. Refrigerator runs too much or too long. Interior refrigerator temperature is too cold. Interior refrigerator temperature is too warm. Refrigerator external surface temperature is warm. SOUND AND NOISE Louder sound levels whenever refrigerator is on. Longer sound levels when compressor comes on. • Room or outside weather is hot. • Refrigerator has recently been disconnected for a period of time. • Large amounts of warm or hot food have been stored recently. • Doors are opened too frequently or too long. • Refrigerator door may be slightly open. • Temperature Control is set too low. • Refrigerator gasket is dirty, worn, cracked, or poorly fitted. • Temperature Control is set too low. • Temperature Control is set too warm. • Door is kept open too long or is opened too frequently. • Door may not be sealing properly. • Large amounts of warm or hot food may have been stored recently. • Refrigerator has recently been disconnected for a period of time. • The external refrigerator walls can be as much as 30°F warmer than room temperature. • It's normal for the refrigerator to work harder under these conditions. • It takes 4 hours for the refrigerator to cool down completely. • Warm food will cause refrigerator to run more until the desired temperature is reached. • Warm air entering the refrigerator causes it to run more. Open doors less often. • See "DOOR PROBLEMS" Section. • Turn control knob to a warmer setting. Allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize. • Clean or change gasket. Leaks in the door seal will cause refrigerator to run longer in order to maintain desired temperature. • Turn the control to a warmer setting. Allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize. • Turn control to a colder setting. Allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize. • Warm air enters the refrigerator every time the door is opened. Open the door less often. • See "DOOR PROBLEMS" Section. • Wait until the refrigerator has had a chance to reach its selected temperature. • Refrigerator requires 4 hours to cool down completely. • This is normal while the compressor works to transfer heat from inside the refrigerator cabinet. • Modern refrigerators have increased storage capacity and more stable temperatures. They require a high efficiency compressor. • Refrigerator operates at higher pressures during the start of the ON cycle. • This is normal. When the surrounding noise level is low, you might hear the compressor running while it cools the interior. • This is normal. Sound will level off or disappear as refrigerator continues to run. 9
