Refrigerator operation
CONCERN
Appliance will not run
It is normal for the freezer
fan not to operate during
the automatic defrost cycle,
or for a short time after the
appliance is switched on.
Compressor motor seems to
run too long
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 often.
The exterior of the appliance is
warm or hot to touch
This is normal because the
appliance transfers heat from
the inside out through the
outer panels and the divider
between the doors.

accidentally changed the user
interface will go into sleep
mode when not in use. Press
