er cover.

Food in Fresh Food Compartment
Food is freezing.
Potential Cause
• Refrigerator is in defrost
cycle.
• Plug at electrical outlet is
disconnected.
• House fuse blown or tripped
circuit breaker.
• Power outage.
• Your variable speed com-
pressor is designed to run
100% of the time except
during the defrost cycle. At
times it will run faster, such
as after a defrost cycle.
• Electronic control system
has detected a performance
problem.
• Weather is hot and humid.
• Flipper mullion
• Vegetables contain and give
off moisture.
• Washed vegetables and fruit
drain while in the drawer
• Weather is humid.
• Temperature setting is too
low.
• Temperature sensor is cov-
ered by food (right side of
fresh food area).
• Food is covering the air
ports.
Common Solution
• This is normal for a fully automatic defrost refriger-
ator. The defrost cycle occurs periodically, lasting
about 30 minutes.
• Ensure plug is tightly pushed into outlet.
• Check/replace fuse with a 15 amp time-delay fuse.
Reset circuit breaker.
• Check house lights. Call local electric company.
• It is normal for the compressor to run continuously
except during defrost mode.
• Call your Electrolux service representative, who can
interpret any messages or number codes flashing
on the digital displays.
• The rate of frost buildup and internal sweating
increases.
• Adjust flipper mullion. (See "To adjust the flipper
mullion" in the Installation section.)
• It is not unusual to have moisture on the bottom
side of the cover.
• Dry items before putting them in the drawer. Water
collecting in bottom of drawer is normal
• This is normal in humid weather. When humidity is
lower, the moisture should disappear.
• Move the setting to a higher degree.
• Allow space for air flow to the sensor.
• Allow space between the air ports and the food.
