RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
Check that the freezer is not running an automatic defrost cycle.
Check that it is plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Check that the temperature control is turned on.
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
NOTE: If problems continue, contact an electrician.
Check that it is plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Check that the light bulb is tight in the socket and is not burned out.
It is normal for water to drip into the defrost drain pan when freezer is defrosting.
When humidity is high, it is normal for water in the defrost pan to take longer to evaporate.
Check that door closes properly.
Defrost and clean the freezer to remove excessive frost.
Adding a large amount of food warms the freezer causing the freezer to run longer to cool back down. If this is
the situation, wait approximately 6 to 8 hours to allow the freezer to reach the correct temperature.
Get all items out at one time, keep food organized and close door as soon as possible.
Check that the condenser coils are clean.
Check that the door gasket is sealed all the way around. If not, contact a qualified person or technician.
Check that space around freezer meets air circulation requirements. See "Location Requirements."
NOTE: If none of the above, your new freezer will run longer than your old one due to its high-efficiency motor.
