Whirlpool ET12PC Refrigerator User Manual


 
Moving...
Remove all food. Pack frozen foods in dry ice. Un-
plug the refrigerator and clean it thoroughly
Remove everything that comes out. Wrap all parts
well and tape them together so they don’t shift and
rattle.
If you need service or
assistance, we suggest
you follow these four steps:
1.
Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems of-ten result from little things
you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.
If your refrlgemtor will not operate:
l
Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit
with the proper voltage? [See page 4.)
l
Have you checked Your home’s main fuses or circuit
breaker box?
l
Is the Temperature Control turned ON?
If there is a mttling or jingling noise, or other un-
familiar sounds:
l
Is something on top or behind the refrigerator mak-
ing noise when the refrigerator is running?
if there is water in the defrost pan:
l
In hot, muggy weather, this is normal. The pan can
even be half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so
the pan doesn’t overflow.
if the light does not work:
l
Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit
breaker box?
l
Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit
with the proper voltage? [See page 4.)
If a bulb is burned out:
l
See instructions for changing light bulbs on page 3.
Use appliance bulbs only
If the motor seems to run too long:
l
Is the condenser, behind the refrigerator, free of dust
and lint?
l
On hot days, or if the room is warm, the motor natu-
rally runs longer
l
If the door has been opened a lot, or if a large
amount of food has been put in, the motor will run
longer to cool down the interior.
Remember:
Motcr running time depends on dif-
ferent things: number of door openings, amount of
food stored, temperature of the room, setting of the
controls.
And, your new refrigerator may be larger than your
old one so it has more space to be cooled. It also has
a regular freezer instead of a frozen food compart-
ment. All this means better refrigeration arid may re-
quire more running time than your old one.
