3 prong outlet.

tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
Is the refrigerator or freezer control turned to the OFF
position? See "Using the Controls."

refrigerator is operating in 30 minutes. Your refrigerator will
regularly run an automatic defrost cycle.

3 prong outlet.

conditions?
See "Using the Controls."
Are the doors not closed completely?
Close the doors
firmly. If they do not close completely, see "The doors will not
close completely"
later in this section.
Are the condenser
coils dirty? This prevents air transfer and
makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils. See
"Cleaning."
Are the door gaskets not sealed all the way around?
Contact a technician or other qualified person.
NOTE: Your new refrigerator will run longer than your old one
due to its high-efficiency
motor.

seems
to make too much noise
The sounds may be normal for your refrigerator. See "Normal
Sounds."
The ice maker is not producing
ice or not enough ice
Has the ice maker just been installed?
Wait 72 hours for full
ice production
to begin. Once your refrigerator is cooled, the
ice maker should produce 70 to 120 cubes every 24 hours.
Is the dispenser
light set to ON? The dispenser light will
operate only when the levers are pressed. If you want the
dispenser light to stay on continuously, set the dispenser light
to ON or AUTO.
Is the dispenser light set to AUTO? If the dispenser is set to
the AUTO mode, be sure the dispenser light sensor is not
blocked. For more information, see "Water and Ice
Dispensers."
NOTE: The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need
to be changed. If your dispenser lights are still not working,
please reference the service numbers located on the back
page of this manual for assistance.

ms the refrigerator defrosting? The water will evaporate. It is
normal for water to drip into the defrost pan.

the water in the defrost pan will take longer to evaporate.

hotter than normal? The motor
will run longer under warm conditions. At normal room
temperatures,
expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of
the time. Under warmer conditions,
it will run even more.
Has a large amount of food just been added to the
refrigerator? Adding a large amount of food warms the
refrigerator. The motor normally will run longer to cool the
refrigerator back down.
Are the doors opened often? The motor will run longer
when this occurs. Conserve energy by getting all items out at
one time, keeping food organized, and closing the door as
soon as possible.

cold enough to produce ice?
Wait 24 hours after ice maker hookup for ice production.

Storage Bin."

on? Turn on the water valve. See "Connect the Water
Supply."

been produced? Make sure your refrigerator has been
connected to a water supply and the supply shutoff valve is
turned on. See "Connect the Water Supply."

Access the ice maker by depressing the ice sensor door on
the upper left side of the freezer interior. While depressing the
sensor door, lift the ice maker service door and remove the
ice from the ejector with a plastic utensil. See "Ice Maker and
Storage Bin."

24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.
Are the controls
set correctly?
See "Using the Controls."
Is there a water filter installed
on the refrigerator? The
filter may be clogged or installed incorrectly. Check the filter
installation instructions to ensure that the filter was installed
correctly and is not clogged. If installation or clogging is not a
problem, call a technician or other qualified person.

system connected
