• Ice and water filter cartridge is
clogged.
• Filter not fully installed.
• Water has been in the tank for
a period of time.
• Unit not properly connected to
cold water line.
• Cut-off and cut-on pressures
are too low (well systems only).
• Reverse osmosis system is in
regenerative phase.
• Weather is hot and humid.
• Door is slightly open.
• Vegetables contain and give
off moisture.
• Washed vegetables and fruit
drain while in the drawer.
• Weather is humid.
• Door is slightly open, causing
cold air from inside refrigerator
to meet warm air from outside.
COMMON SOLUTION
• Call your Sears service representative, who can inter-
pret any messages or number codes flashing on the
digital displays.
• Open household water line valve. See CONCERN
column AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER.
• Replace filter cartridge.
• Push filter in until you hear a "click".
• Draw and discard 10-12 glasses of water to freshen
the supply and completely rinse out the tank.
• Connect unit to cold water line that supplies water to
the kitchen faucet.
• Have someone turn up the cut-off and cut-on pres-
sure on the water pump system (well systems only).
• It is normal for a reverse osmosis system to be below
20 psi during the regenerative phase.
• The rate of frost buildup and internal sweating increases.
• See CONCERN column OPENING/CLOSING OF
DOORS/DRAWERS.
• It is not unusual to have moisture on the bottom side
of the cover.
• Move humidity control (some models) to lower setting.
• 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.
• See CONCERN column OPENING/CLOSING OF
DOORS/DRAWERS.
