models).
A household fuse or circuit breaker has tripped.
The internal temperature is set too cold.
The air vents on the drip tray are blocked in the
compartment; this prevents the movement of cold air.

ventilation exists.
The door is opened too often or not closed properly.
A large amount of food has just been added to the
refrigerator compartment.
The position of the thermostat knob is adjusted too low.

Troubleshooting
Suggested Remedy
Ensure that the unit is plugged in and
power is supplied.
Adjust the temperature control knob to a
cooler setting (1–7).
Move the unit out of Silent Mode. Refer to
"Using the Touch-Panel Control" on
page 9.
Ensure that there is power supplied to
the unit.
Adjust the temperature to a warmer
setting.

there are proper clearances around the
unit. Refer to "Installation" on page 5
for clearance details.
Limit the amount of time that the door is
opened during operation.
Cool food before inserting it into the
unit. Adding warm food to the unit delays
cooling.

leveled. Refer to "Positioning the
Refrigerator" on page 6.
Ensure that there are proper clearances
around the unit. Refer to "Positioning the
Refrigerator" on page 6.

opened during operation and ensure that
the door is properly closed after opening.

humidity, if possible.

instructions. Refer to "Operation" on
page 8 for details.
