If you need service or
assistance, we suggest
you follow these four steps:
I. Before calling
for assistance...
Performance
problems
often result from little things
you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind
if your refrigerator
will not operate:
l
Is the electric cord plugged
in?
l
Is a fuse blown or a circuit breaker tripped'
l
Is the Refrigerator
Control turned ON?
if there
is a rattling
or jingling
noise,
or other
unfamiliar
sounds:
l
Is something
on top or behind the refrigerator
mak-
ing norse when the refrigerator
IS
running?
l
New features on your new refrigerator
make new
sounds
You may be hearing
air flowing
from the
fans. timer clicks for the defrosting
cycle,
defrost
water drarning into the defrost pan
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 crrcuit breakers.

plugged
in.
it a bulb is burned
out:
l
See Instructions for changrng
light bulbs on page
6. Use appliance
bulbs only
if the motor seem to run too long:
l
Is the condenser,
behind
the refrigerator,
free of
dust and lint?
. On hot days, or If the room
IS
warm, the motor natu-
rally runs longer
l
If the door has been opened
a lot, the motor WIII
run longer to cool down the interior
Remember:
Motor running time depends
on d/f-
ferent things
number
of door openings,
amount
of
food stored, ter,lperature
of the room, setting of the
controls
And, your new refrigerator
may be larger than
your old one so it has more space to be cooled.
It
also has a regular freezer Instead of a frozen food
compartment.
All this means better refrigeration
and
may require more running time than your old one
