• Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water

(on some models).

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

ProperDisposalofYourOldRefrigerator

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Failure to do so can resuJt in death or

brain damage.

IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems

of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous

- even if they will sit for "just a few days." If you are getting rid of

your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help

prevent accidents.

Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer

• Take off the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily

climb inside.

REFRIGERATOR

INSTALLATION

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install

refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Removing packaging materials

• Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning

on the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap

over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water

and dry.

Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable

fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These

products can damage the surface of your refrigerator. For

more information, see the "Refrigerator Safety" section.

On some models, shelves, bins, door shelf rails, and other

feature parts may be packaged in the Interior FeaturePak.

Follow the instructions contained in the package for proper

assembly.

Depending on your model, to remove the protective

(transparent) film that is on the nameplate, which is located

on the freezer handle, use your fingernail and peel off the film,

starting from one side and peeling to the other.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove the white foam air return insert that

is located behind the control panel on the ceiling of the

refrigerator (on some models). The insert is part of the refrigerator

and not part of the packing material. If the insert is removed, ice

may migrate down from the freezer and cause icicles to form.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion,

or fire.

Toensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for 1/2in.

(1.25 cm) space on each side and at the top. When installing your

refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave 2 in. (5.08 cm) minimum on

each side (depending on your model) to allow for the door to

swing open. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra

space at the back for the water line connections.

NOTE: Do not install the refrigerator near an oven, radiator, or

other heat source, nor in a location where the temperature will fall

below 55°F (13°C).

When Moving Your Refrigerator:

Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator

for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor.

Always pull the refrigerator straight out when moving it.

Do not wiggle or "walk" the refrigerator when trying to move

it, as floor damage could occur.

2" (5.08cm) /

Cleaning before use

After you remove all of the package materials, clean the inside of

your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in

the "Refrigerator Care" section.

important information to know about glass shelves

and covers:

Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when

they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to

sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.

For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter

into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass

shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when re-

moving them to avoid impact from dropping.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in

death, fire, or electrical shock.

Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is

important to make sure you have the proper electrical

connection:

Recommended grounding method

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15 or 20 ampere fused, grounded

electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate

circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet

that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an

extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or

removing a light bulb, turn the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator

or Freezer Control depending on the model) to OFF and then

disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you

are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source

and reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control

depending on the model) to the desired setting.

Read all directions carefully before you begin.

IMPORTANT."

• If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is

connected, turn the ice maker OFR

• All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

• Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing

only in areas where temperatures will remain above freezing.

Tools required: Standard screwdriver, 7/16in. and 1/2in. open-end

wrenches or two adjustable wrenches, 1/4in. nut driver and drill

bit, hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded).

NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 1/4in.

(6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing.

Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with

your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16in.

(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more

easily.

Cold water supply

Connect the ice maker to a cold water line with water pressure

between 30 and 120 psi. Ifyou have questions about your water

pressure, call your utility company.

Connecting to Water Line

Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long

enough to clear line of water.

Locate a 1/2in. to 11/4in. (1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical COLD

water pipe near the refrigerator.

NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of

the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from

the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure

from the connection on the lower left rear of refrigerator to the

water pipe. Add 7 ft. (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use 1/4in.

(6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure

both ends of copper tubing are cut square.

Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4in. hole in the cold water pipe

you have selected.

6. Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe

clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 1/4in. drilled hole

in the water pipe and that the washer is under the pipe clamp.

Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws

carefully and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do

not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing.

7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the

copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the

outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut

onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.

8. Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and

turn ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is

clear. Turn OFF the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the

copper tubing.

Connecting to Refrigerator

1. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression

nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do

not overtighten. Use the tube clamp on the back of the

refrigerator to secure the tubing to the refrigerator as shown.

This will help prevent damage to the tubing when the

refrigerator is pushed back against the wall.

2. Turn shutoff valve ON.

3. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including

connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.

4. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If

your water conditions require a second water strainer, install it

in the 1/4in. (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection.

Obtain a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

TOOLS NEEDED: %6 in. hex-head socket wrench, No. 2 Phillips

screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, 5/lein. open-end wrench, flat 2

Door Closing

Your refrigerator has two front adjustable rollers - one on the right

and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or you

want the doors to close easier, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using

the instructions below:

1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

2. Move the refrigerator into its final position.

3. Remove the base grille (see "Base Grille" earlier in this

section). The two leveling screws are part of the front roller

assemblies which are at the base of the refrigerator on either

side.

4. Use a screwdriver to adjust the leveling screws. Turn the

leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the refrigerator

or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower that side. It may

take several turns of the leveling screws to adjust the tilt of

the refrigerator.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws and

rollers. This makes it easier to adjust the screws.

5. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they

close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly

more to the rear by turning both leveling screws to the right. It

may take several more turns, and you should turn both

leveling screws the same amount.

6. Replace the base grille.

Door Alignment

If the space between your doors looks uneven, you can adjust it

using the instructions below:

1. Pry off the top hinge cover.

2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a s_6in. socket or wrench.

3. Have someone hold the door in place or put a spacer

between the doors while you tighten the top hinge screws.

4. Replace the top hinge cover.

Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn't

make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be

concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard

surfaces, such as the floor, walls, and cabinets, can make the

sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds of sounds

and what may be making them.

• If your product is equipped with an ice maker, you will hear a

buzzing sound when the water valve opens to fill the ice

maker for each cycle.

Your refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently to keep

your food items at the desired temperatures and to minimize

energy usage. The high efficiency compressor and fans may

cause your refrigerator to run longer than your old one. You

may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the

compressor or fans adjusting to optimize performance.

• You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating air through

the refrigerator and freezer compartments. The fan speed

may increase as you open the doors or add warm food.

• Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant, the

water line, or items stored on top of the refrigerator.

• Water dripping on the defrost heater during a defrost cycle

may cause a sizzling sound.

• As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to

the refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator.

• Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause a

popping noise.

• You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the

condenser fan.

• You may hear water running into the drain pan during the

defrost cycle.

REFRIGERATORUSE

In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit

airflow between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in

the illustration, cool air enters through the bottom of the freezer

section and moves up. Most of the air then flows through the

freezer section vents and recirculates under the freezer floor. The

rest of the air enters the refrigerator section through the top vent.

Do not block any of these vents with food packages. If the vents

are blocked, airflow will be prevented and temperature and

moisture problems may occur.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any

odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must

thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent

odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

.......... ?£[y ....... ,,,

For your convenience, your refrigerator control(s) are preset at the

factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the

control(s) are still preset to the mid-settings as shown.

NOTE: To turn your refrigerator off, turn the refrigerator control to

the word OFF or until the word OFF appears. Your product will

not cool when the refrigerator control is set to OFE

IMPORTANT:

• Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before

adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food

into the refrigerator.

If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely,

your food may spoil. Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer

Controls to a higher (colder) than recommended setting will

not cool the compartments any faster.

Adjusting Controls

The mid-setting(s) indicated in the previous section should be

correct for normal household usage. The controls are set

correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice

cream is firm.

If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or

freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not blocked.

If you need to adjust temperatures, use the settings listed in the

chart below as a guide. On models with two controls, adjust the

refrigerator temperature first. Wait at least 24 hours between

adjustments and then recheck the temperatures.

Turningthe ice maker on/off

NOTE: Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.

• To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is

made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice

cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up)

position.

• To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shutoff arm to

the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure

the ice maker will not continue to operate.

Increasing ice production rate

NORMAL Ice Production: In Normal ice production mode, the

ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches of

ice in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough,

turn the Freezer Control toward a higher (colder) number in

half number steps. (For example, if the control is at 3, move it

to between 3 and 4.) Wait 24 hours and, if necessary,

gradually turn the Freezer Control to the highest setting,

waiting 24 hours between each increase.

MAXIMUM Ice Production (on some models): In Maximum ice

production, the ice maker should produce approximately 16

to 20 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If your refrigerator

has the maximum ice production feature, push the switch to

MAX.

REMEMBER:

• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the

first three batches of ice produced.

The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of

the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the

ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener

chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker

and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot

be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating

properly and is well maintained.

• Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice

storage bin.

Frozen Food Storage Guide

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food,

the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and

moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Seal the package

or container securely to prevent taste and odor transfer

throughout the product. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are

normal.

Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within

24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 Ibs. of food per cubic foot [907-

1,350 g per L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the

REFRIGERATORCARE

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion,

or fire.

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.

However, clean both sections about once a month to prevent

odors from building up. Wipe up spills immediately.

Cleaning your refrigerator

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves,

crispers, etc.

3. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a

mild detergent in warm water.

• Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window

sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning

waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers

containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior

and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels,

scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can

scratch or damage materials.

• To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a

mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs. to 1 qt.

[26 g to .95 L] of water).

4. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean

sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do

not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft

cloth. For additional protection against damage to painted

metal exteriors, apply appliance wax (or auto paste wax) with

a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax plastic parts.

NOTE: To keep your Stainless Steel refrigerator looking like

new and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that

you use the manufacturer's approved Stainless Steel Cleaner

& Polish.

IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for Stainless Steel parts only!

Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish to come into

contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces,

dispenser covers or door gaskets. If accidental contact does

occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent in

warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. To order the

cleaner, see the "Accessories" section.

There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal

home operating environments. If the environment is

particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in

the home, the condenser should be cleaned every two to

three months to ensure maximum efficiency.

If you need to clean the condenser:

• Remove the base grille (see "Base Grille" or "Door

Removal" section).

• Use a vacuum with a soft brush to clean the grille, the

open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of

the condenser.

• Replace the base grille when finished.

Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to

replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape, and wattage.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove the bulb from behind the control panel in the

refrigerator or from behind the light shield in the freezer (on

some models). Replace it with an appliance bulb of the same

wattage.

3. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep both refrigerator

doors closed to help food stay cold and frozen.

If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the

following:

• Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.

• Place 2 Ibs. (907 g) of dry ice in the freezer for every cubic

foot (28 L) of freezer space. This will keep the food frozen for

two to four days.

• If neither a food locker nor dry ice is available, consume or

can perishable food at once.

REMEMBER: A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled

one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of

baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be

refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the

condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.

Vacations

If you choose to leave the refrigerator on while you're

away:

1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

• Raise wire shutoff arm to OFF (up) position or move the

switch to the OFF (right) setting.

• Shut off water supply to the ice maker.

3. Empty the ice bin.

If you choose to turn the refrigerator off before you leave:

1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

• Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day

ahead of time.

• When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm

to the OFF (up) position or move the switch to the OFF

(right) setting.

3. Depending on your model, turn the Thermostat Control or

Refrigerator Control to OFE See the "Using the Control(s)"

section.

4. Clean refrigerator, wipe it, and dry well.

5. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop

them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and

mold from building up.

Moving

When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow

these steps to prepare it for the move.

1. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

• Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day

ahead of time.

• Disconnect the water line from the back of the

refrigerator.

• When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm

to the OFF (up) position or move the switch to the OFF

(right) setting.

2. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food

in dry ice.

3. Empty the ice bin.

4. Depending on your model, turn the Thermostat Control or

Refrigerator Control to OFE See the "Using the Control(s)"

section.

5. Unplug the refrigerator.

6. Empty water from the defrost pan.

7. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.

8. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them

together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.

9. Depending on the model, raise the front of the refrigerator so

it rolls more easily OR screw in the leveling legs so they don't

scrape the floor. See the "Door Closing" or "Leveling Your

Refrigerator" section.

10. Tape the doors shut and the power cord to the refrigerator

cabinet.

When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to

the "Refrigerator Installation" section for preparation instructions.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Trythe solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the

cost of an unnecessary service call.

Your refrigerator will not operate

• Is the power cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong •

outlet.

• Has a household fuse or circuit breaker tripped? Replace

the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. •

• Is the Refrigerator Control turned to the OFF position?

See the "Using the Control(s)" section.

• Is the refrigerator defrosting? Recheck to see if the •

refrigerator is operating in 30 minutes, Your refrigerator will

regularly run an automatic defrost cycle.

The lights do not work •

• Is the power cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong

outlet.

• Is a light bulb loose in the socket or burned out? See the

"Changing the Light Bulb(s)" section.

There is water in the defrost drain pan

• Is the refrigerator defrosting? The water will evaporate. It is

normal for water to drip into the defrost pan.

• Is it more humid than normal? When it is humid, expect that

the water in the defrost pan will take longer to evaporate,

The motor seems to runtoo much

Is the room temperature hotter than normal? The motor

will run longer under warm conditions. At normal room

temperatures, your motor will run about 40% to 80% of the

time. Under warmer conditions, it will run even more.

Has a large amount of food just been added to the

refrigerator? Adding a large amount of food warms the

refrigerator. The motor normally will run longer to cool the

refrigerator back down.

Are the doors opened often? The motor will run longer

when this occurs. Conserve energy by getting all items out at

one time, keeping food organized, and closing the door as

soon as possible.

• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding

conditions? See the "Using the Control(s)" section,

• Are the doors closed completely? Close the doors firmly. If

they do not close completely, see "The doors will not close

completely" later in this section,

• Are the condenser coils dirty? This prevents air transfer and

makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils, See

the "Cleaning" section.

NOTE: Your new refrigerator will run longer than your old one due

to its high-efficiency motor.

The refrigerator seems to make too much noise

• The sounds may be normal for your refrigerator. See the

"Normal Sounds" section.

The ice maker is not producing ice or not enough ice.

• Has the ice maker just been installed? Wait 72 hours for full

ice production to begin. Once your refrigerator is cooled, the

ice maker should produce 70-120 cubes every 24 hours,

Is the freezer temperature cold enough to produce ice?

Wait 24 hours after hook-up for ice production. See the

"Using the Control(s)" section.

Is the wire shutoff arm in the OFF (arm up) position?

Lower the wire shutoff arm to the ON (arm down) position.

See the "Ice Maker" section.

Is the water line shutoff valve to the refrigerator turned

on? Turn on the water valve, See the "Water Supply

Connection" section.

Does the ice maker mold have water in it or has no ice

been produced? Be sure your refrigerator has been

connected to a water supply and the supply shutoff valve is

turned on, See the "Water Supply Connection" section.

Is an ice cube jammed in the ejector arm? Remove the ice

from the ejector arm with a plastic utensil. See the "Ice

Maker" section,

Has a large amount of ice just been removed? Allow 24

hours for ice maker to produce more ice.

Is the control set correctly? If too little ice is produced, see

the "Using the Control(s)" section.

Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The

filter may be full or incorrectly installed. Depending on your

model, remove the water filter cartridge (see the "Interior

Water Filtration System" section), Operate the dispenser. If

the water flow increases noticeably, your filter is full and

needs to be replaced,

NOTE: If not due to any of the above, there may be a problem

with the water line, Call for service.

Off-taste, odor or gray color in the ice

• Are the plumbing connections new, causing discolored or

off-flavored ice? Discard the first few batches of ice,

Have the ice cubes been stored too long? Throw old ice

away and make a new supply.

Has food in the refrigerator been wrapped properly? See

the "Refrigerator Features" section.

Do the freezer and ice bin need to be cleaned? See the

"Cleaning" section.

Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur)? A filter

may need to be installed to remove the minerals.

msthere a water filter installed on the refrigerator?

Gray or dark discoloration in ice indicates that the water

filtration system needs additional flushing. Run additional

water through the water dispenser to flush the water filtration

system more thoroughly, at least 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) or 6 to

7 minutes initially. Discard discolored ice.

The water dispenser will not operate properly Temperature istoo warm

Has the water system not filled? The water system needs •

to be filled the first time it is used, Use a sturdy container to

depress the water dispenser until water begins to flow,

Dispense and discard 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water. This will

take approximately 6 to 7 minutes and will help clear air from

the line. Additional flushing may be required in some •

households. See the "Water Dispenser" section.

Is the water shutoff valve not turned on or the water line

connected at the source? Be sure the water shutoff valve is

turned on and the water source is connected to the

refrigerator. See the "Water Supply Connection" section.

Is the water shutoff valve clogged or incorrectly installed?

See the "Water Supply Connection" section, If clogging or

installation is not a problem, call for service or contact a

plumber.

• Is there a kink in the home water source line? If you find or

suspect a kink in the water line, call for service,

Water flow from the dispenser decreases noticeably

Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The

filter may be full or incorrectly installed. Depending on your

model, remove the water filter cartridge (see the "Interior

Water Filtration System" section). Operate the dispenser. If

the water flow increases noticeably, your filter is full and

needs to be replaced.

Water leaking from the dispenser

Is the glass not being held under the water dispenser long

enough? Hold the container under the water dispenser two

to three seconds after releasing the dispenser lever. Water

may continue to dispense during this time.

Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The

water filtration system may have air in the lines, causing water

to drip. Additional flushing may help clear air from the lines.

Normal dispenser use should flush air from the lines within 24

to 72 hours.

The dispenser water is not cool enough

• Has the refrigerator been newly installed? Allow 24 hours

for the refrigerator to cool completely.

• Has a large amount of water been recently dispensed?

Allow 24 hours for the water to cool completely.

• Has water not been recently dispensed? The first glass of

water may not be cool, Discard the first glass of water.

The divider between the two compartments is warm

The warmth is probably due to normal operation of the automatic

exterior moisture control.

Are the air vents blocked in either compartment? This

prevents cold air movement between the compartments.

Move objects away from the air vents. See the "Ensuring

Proper Air Circulation" section for air vent locations.

Are the door(s) opened often? The refrigerator will warm

when this occurs, Keep the refrigerator cool by getting all

items out at one time, keeping food organized, and closing
