Problem

Possible Causes

Solutions

Lights do not work.

The power supply cord is unplugged.

Firmly plug the cord into a live outlet

with proper voltage (refer to Electrical &
Grounding Requirements).

A light bulb is loose in the socket.

Unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at

the circuit breaker or fuse box. Gently remove
the bulb and reinsert (refer to Light Bulb

Replacement for instructions on removing your
light bulb). Reconnect power and reset the
refrigerator control.

A light bulb has burned out.

NOTE:

The refrigerator compartment lamp

is LED interior lighting, and service should be
performed by a qualified technician.

Replace with an appliance bulb of the same

wattage, size and shape available at your

local hardware store. (Refer to the Light Bulb
Replacement section.) Unplug the refrigerator
or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse
box.

Vibration or rattling
noise.

The refrigerator is not resting solidly on the
floor.

Floor is weak or uneven or leveling legs need

adjusting. See the Installation section for
leveling instructions.

Compressor seems to
run too much.

The refrigerator that was replaced was an
older model.

Modern refrigerators require more operating
time but use less energy due to more efficient
technology.

The room temperature is warmer than normal.

The compressor will run longer under warm
conditions. At normal room temperatures
(70°F) expect your compressor to run about
40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer
conditions, expect it to run even more often.
The refrigerator should not be operated
above

nO°F.

The door is opened often or a large amount
of food has just been added.

Adding food and opening the door warms the

refrigerator, requiring the compressor to run
longer in order to cool the refrigerator back
down. In order to conserve energy, try to get
everything you need out of the refrigerator
at once, keep food organized so it is easy to
find, and close the door as soon as the food is
removed. (Refer to the Food Storage Guide.)

The refrigerator was recently plugged in and
the refrigerator control was set correctly.

The refrigerator will take up to 24 hours to
cool completely.

The refrigerator control is not set correctly for
the surrounding conditions.

See the Adjusting Control Settings section.

The doors are not closed completely.

Firmly push the doors shut. If they will not

shut all the way, see “Doors will not close
completely” in the Troubleshooting section.

The back cover is dirty.

This prevents air transfer and makes the motor
work harder. Clean the back cover. Refer to
the Care and Cleaning section.
