If you need service or
assistance, we suggest you
follow these four steps:
I. Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems often result from little thongs
you can find and ftx yourself without tools of any krnd
if your refrigerator will not operate:
l
Is the electrrc cord plugged In3
l
Is a fuse blown or a crrcurt breaker trapped?
l
Is the Temperature Control dral turned ON?
if your ice maker will not operate:
l
Has the freezer had enough time toget cold? With
a new refrrgerator, this might take overnight
l
Is the srgnal arm ON In the down positron?
l
Is the water valve turned on, and
IS
water getting
to the tee maker?
I1 there is a rattling or jtngiing noise, or other
unfamiliar sounds:
l
Is something on top or behind the refrigerator mak-
rng noise when the refrigerator
IS
running?
l
New features on your new refrigerator make new
sounds You may be heanng arr flowrng from the
fans, timer clrcks for the defrosting cycle, defrost
water drarnrng Into the defrost pan. If you have an
Ice maker, you
will
hear water flll the molds and
the ice drop Into the brn
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 doesn’t work:
l
Check fuses and circuit breakers. Make sure It’s
plugged in.
l
The bulb may be burned out. Unplug the refrrger-
ator. remove the ltght shreld. replace the bulb with
an appliance bulb no larger than 40 watts Re-
place the light shield and plug in the cord
it the motor seems to run too much:
l
Is the condenser, behind the base grill, free of dust
and Itnt7
l
On hot days, or If the room IS warm, the motor
naturally 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:
Motor running time depends on drf-
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 tt has more space to be cooled. It
also has a regular freezer instead of a frozen food
compartment. All thts means better refrrgeration and
may require more running time than your old one
