Tips on saving energy • Locate your refrigerator in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts and out of direct sunlight. • Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in your refrigerator. Overloading your refrigerator forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil. • Wrap foods correctly and wipe containers dry before placing them in your refrigerator. This cuts down on frost build-up. • Do not line the refrigerator storage shelves with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation and make your refrigerator less efficient. • Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible. Troubleshooting CAUTION: Do not try to repair your refrigerator yourself. Doing so invalidates the warranty. PROBLEM My refrigerator does not work. The refrigerator compartment has a bad odor. The refrigerator doors do not close completely. The temperature is too hot. The temperature is too cold. SOLUTION • Make sure that your refrigerator is securely plugged into a working outlet. • Make sure that your power source has the correct voltage. Your refrigerator's voltage rating is on a label on the back of your refrigerator. • Check the house fuse or circuit breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. • Make sure that all food with a strong odor (like onions) is wrapped or stored in airtight packaging. • Certain containers and wrapping materials (such as paper, foil, or plastic) can cause odors. If you think this might be the case, try using different containers or a different brand of wrapping material. • Check for spoiled food and remove it. • Clean the inside of your refrigerator. See Cleaning your refrigerator on page 26. • Make sure that no food packages are in the way. • Make sure that the door gaskets (seals) are clean. See Cleaning your refrigerator on page 26. • If the door gasket does not seal, try heating then cooling the seal. You can use an electric hair dryer to heat the seal. • Make sure that your refrigerator is level. See Leveling your refrigerator on page 11. • Make sure that the top of your refrigerator is tilted backward about 0.4" (10 mm) to 0.6" (15 mm). See Leveling your refrigerator on page 11. • You may have left the doors open too long or opened them too frequently. • Make sure that no obstacle is keeping the doors from closing correctly. • Adjust the refrigerator or freezer compartment temperature.

Tips on saving energy
Locate your refrigerator in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts and out
of direct sunlight.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in your refrigerator. Overloading your refrigerator forces
the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
Wrap foods correctly and wipe containers dry before placing them in your refrigerator. This cuts down on frost
build-up.
Do not line the refrigerator storage shelves with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold
air circulation and make your refrigerator less efficient.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one
time, and close the door as soon as possible.

CAUTION:
Do not try to repair your refrigerator yourself. Doing so invalidates the warranty.
