Solutions to Common Problems 37 Temperatures Are Too Warm (continued) Concern Potential Cause Refrigerator temperature is too warm. Freezer temperature is satisfactory. • Refrigerator control is set too warm. Temperature in the Cool Zone Drawer or Perfect TempTM Drawer is too warm (select models). • Temperature control is set too warm. Common Solution • Set refrigerator control to a colder setting. Allow 24 hours for temperature to stabilize. • Adjust temperature control to a colder setting. Water Dispenser Concern Dispenser will not dispense water. Potential Cause • Water supply is not connected. • Household water line valve is not open. • Ice & water filter cartridge is clogged. Common Solution • Connect water supply (see Connecting The Water Supply section). • Open household water line valve. See Problem section Ice Maker Is Not Making Ice. • Replace filter cartridge being sure to remove protective caps. Water has an odd taste and/or odor. Water pressure is extremely low. • Water has been in the tank for a period of time. • Unit not properly connected to cold water line. • Tubing used in the household water supply and installation may affect water taste and odor. • Water has a high mineral content. • Cut-off and cut-on pressures are too low (well systems only). • Reverse osmosis system is in regenerative phase. • Draw and discard 10-12 glasses of water to freshen the supply and completely rinse out the tank. • Connect unit to cold water line that supplies water to the kitchen faucet. • For best results, use copper tubing for water connections. • Contact water treatment plant for help in checking water supply source. • Have someone turn up the cut-off and cut-on pressure on the water pump system (well systems only). • It is normal for a reverse osmosis system to be below 20 psi during the regenerative phase. Water/Moisture/Frost Inside Refrigerator Concern Potential Cause Moisture collects on inside of refrigerator walls. • Weather is hot and humid. • Door is slightly open. • Door is opened too often or too long. Water collects on bottom side of drawer cover. Moisture collects in bottom of drawer. Moisture collects on outside of refrigerator or between doors. • Open containers. • Vegetables contain and give off moisture. • Washed vegetables and fruit drain while in the drawer. • Fruits and vegetables are kept past their prime • Weather is humid. • Door is slightly open, causing cold air from inside refrigerator to meet warm air from outside. Common Solution • The rate of frost buildup and internal sweating increases. • See Problem section, Opening/Closing of Doors/ Drawers. • Open door less often to allow internal temperature to stabilize. • Keep containers covered. • Moisture on the bottom side of the cover is not unusual. • Move humidity control (select models) to lower setting. • Dry items before putting them in the drawer. Water collecting in bottom of drawer is normal. • Routinely clean out old fruits and vegetables especially if they begin to break down. • This is normal in humid weather. When humidity is lower, the moisture should disappear. • See Problem section, Opening/Closing of Doors/ Drawers. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
