ef cient speeds.
It is normal for the refrigerator to work longer under these conditions. For
optimum performance, place the refrigerator in an indoor, temperature
controlled environment. See "Location Requirements."
Warm food will cause the refrigerator to run longer until the air cools to
the desired temperature.
Warm air entering the refrigerator causes it to run more. Open the door
less often.
Make sure the refrigerator is level. See "Refrigerator Leveling, Door
Closing and Alignment." Keep food and containers from blocking the
door.
Adjust the refrigerator control to a less cold setting until the refrigerator
temperature is as desired.
Clean or change the gasket. Leaks in the door seal will cause the
refrigerator to run longer in order to maintain desired temperatures.
If there is power to the refrigerator and the lights do not illuminate when a
door or drawer is opened, call for service or assistance.
On some models, the dispenser light will operate only when a dispenser
paddle is pressed. If you want the dispenser light to stay on continuously,
see "Water and Ice Dispensers."
Close the doors and drawer to reset, and open to resume lighted task.
Check that the rear shelf hooks are completely seated into the slots in
the shelf supports.
Check all shelf support screws to ensure they are fully tightened. Tighten
all loose screws.
Close the doors and drawer to reset, and open to resume lighted task.
Exit Cooling Off mode. See "Using the Control(s)."
Unplug the refrigerator, wait 5 seconds. Plug in the refrigerator, and wait
30 seconds before opening any of the refrigerator doors or touching the
control panel.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
The compressor in your new refrigerator
regulates temperature more ef ciently
while using less energy, and operates
quietly. Due to this reduction in operating
noise, you may notice unfamiliar noises
that are normal.
High-ef ciency compressor and fans
Fans/compressor adjusting to optimize
performance during normal compressor
operation
SOLUTIONS
Larger, more ef cient refrigerators run longer at lower,
more energy ef cient speeds.
This is normal.
