THERE
IS WATER IN ME DEFROSC DRAIN PAN
Check if...
Then...
The refrigerator is defrosting.
The water will evaporate. It is normal for water to drip
into the defrost pan.
It is more humid than normal.
Expect that the water in the defrost pan will take longer
to evaporate. This is normal when it is hot or humid.
Water in the defrost pan is overflowing.
Check to make sure your refrigerator is level. (See
“Leveling it” on page 8.) If it is still overflowing there is
probably something wrong with the refrigerator. Call
the Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-253-l 301.
THE
MOTOR SEEM TO RUN TOO MUCH
Check if...
The room temperature is hotter than normal.
Then...
Expect the motor to run longer under warm conditions.
At normal room temperatures, expect your motor to
run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer
conditions, expect it to run even more of the time.
A large amount of food has just been added to
the refrigerator.
Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator.
It is normal for the motor to run longer in order to
cool the refrigerator back down. See food storage
on page 27.
The door is opened often.
Expect the motor to run longer when this occurs. In
order to conserve energy, try to get everything you
need out of the refrigerator at once, keep food orga-
nized so it is easy to find, and close the door as soon
as the food is removed.
The controls are not set correctly for the
surrounding conditions.
See “How the controls work” on page 12.
The doors are not closed completely.
The doors are misaligned.
Push the doors firmly shut. If they will not shut all the
way, see “The doors will not close completely,” on
page 35.
See “Leveling it” on page 8 or call the Consumer
Assistance Center at 1-800-253-l 301.
The base grille is dirty or blocked.
The condenser coils are dirty.
This prevents air circulation and makes the motor
work harder. Remove the grille and clean, See
Removing the base grille” on page 25.
This prevents air transfer and makes the motor work
harder. Clean the.condenser coils. See “Cleaning
your refrigerator” on page 25.
If the problem is not due to any of the above, remem-
ber that your new refrigerator will run longer than your
old one due to its high efficiency motor.
