Possible Causes and/or Recommended Solutions
Power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong
Is outlet working? Plug in a lamp to see if the outlet is working.
Household fuse blown, or a circuit breaker tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the
circuit. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
Are controls on? Be sure that the refrigerator controls are on. Refer "Controls"
section.
Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the motor to run longer
under warm conditions. At normal 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.
Has a large amount of food 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.
Is the door 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 organized so it is easy to fi nd, and close the door as soon as the
food is removed.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? Refer "Controls"
section.
Is the door closed completely? Push the door fi rmly shut. If it will not shut all the
way, refer "The door will not close completely" later in this section.
Are the condenser coils dirty? This obstructs air transfer and makes the motor
work harder. Clean the condenser coils. Refer "Cleaning" section.
