REFRIGERATOR SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all

safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or

"WARNING." These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you

what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANTSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your refrigerator, follow these basic

precautions:

• Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

• Do not remove ground prong.

• Do not use an adapter.

• Do not use an extension cord.

• Disconnect power before servicing.

• Replace all panels before operating.

• Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Use nonflammable cleaner.

• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from refrigerator.

• Use two or more people to move and install

refrigerator.

• Disconnect power before installing ice maker (on

ice maker kit ready models only).

• Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water

(on some models).

SAVETHESEINSTRUCTIONS

Proper DisposalofYourOld Refrigerator

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result 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 'lust 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.

INSTALLINGYOUR

REFRIGERATOR

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install

refrigerator.

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

Remove shelves from the shipping position (shelves are

shipped upside down):

1. Grasp the front of the upper shelf with one hand and use the

other hand to remove packing material from the shelf area.

2. Lower the front of the upper shelf until shelf hooks can be

removed from the shelf supports and pull the shelf forward.

3. Flip the shelf over and insert the rear shelf hooks into the

shelf supports. Tilt the front of shelf up until rear shelf hooks

drop into the shelf supports.

4. Lower the front of the shelf and check to make sure that it is

securely in position.

Removing packaging materials

• Remove tape and glue from your refrigerator before using. To

remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area briskly with

your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also be easily removed

by rubbing 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 "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.

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.

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 "Caring for Your Refrigerator" 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.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion,

or fire.

• To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a

1/2in. (12.70 ram) space on each side.

• Allow 3 in. (7.5 cm) of space between overhead cabinets and

refrigerator top,

• Allow at least 1 in. (25.40 mm) between back of cabinet and

the wall.

2" (5.08 cm)

• If your refrigerator has an ice maker, make sure you leave

some extra space at the back for the water line connections.

• If you are installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave

2 in. (5.08 cm) minimum on the hinge side (depending on your

model) to allow for the door to swing open.

• Level the refrigerator (see "Door Closing and Alignment").

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

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

below 40°F (5°C).

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 operating the refrigerator before installing the water

connection, turn ice maker to the OFF position to prevent

operation without water.

• All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing

code requirements.

• Use copper tubing and check for leaks.

• Install copper tubing only in areas where temperatures will

remain above freezing.

• It may take up to 24 hours for your ice maker to begin

producing ice.

Tools required:

• Standard screwdriver

• 7/16in. and 1/2in. open-end wrenches or two adjustable

wrenches

• 1/4in. nut driver

• 1/4in. 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 shut-off 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 3A6in, (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow

and clogs more easily.

Cold Water Supply

The ice maker water valve contains a flow washer which is used

as a water pressure regulator. The ice maker needs to be

connected to a cold water line with water pressure between 30

and 120 psi. If a problem occurs, call your utility company.

Connecting to water line:

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long

enough to clear line of water.

3. Find a 1/2in.(12.7 mm) to 11/4in. (3.18 cm) vertical COLD

water pipe near the refrigerator.

NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but the following procedure

must be followed: Drill on the top side of the pipe, not the

bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill. This

also keeps normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

4. To determine the length of copper tubing you will need,

measure from connection on lower left rear of refrigerator to

water pipe. Add 7 feet (2.1 m) to allow for moving refrigerator

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. (6.35 mm) hole in the cold

water pipe you have selected.

6. Fasten shut-off valve to cold water pipe with pipe clamp. Be

sure outlet end is solidly in the 1/4in. (6.35 mm) drilled hole in

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

Tighten 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, especially if

soft (coiled) copper tubing is used. Now you are ready to

connect the copper tubing.

7. Slip compression sleeve and compression nut on copper

tubing as shown. Insert end of tubing into 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 into a container or sink, and

turn ON main water supply and flush out tubing until water is

clear. Turn OFF shut-off valve on the water pipe. Coil copper

tubing.

Connecting to refrigerator:

NOTE: The first step for connecting the water line to your

refrigerator is different depending on the type of water valve

provided with your refrigerator. See the diagrams below to

determine the style of valve you have. (On kit models, assemble

water valve to refrigerator per kit instructions.)

1. For Style 1, disconnect the tube clamp on the back of the

product and insert the copper tubing through the clamp, as

shown. Remove the tape label from the valve inlet and insert

copper tubing until it bottoms out (approximately ¾ in. [1.9

cm]). Tighten nut by hand as much as possible; then turn the

nut an additional 1/2turn using a wrench. Do not overtighten.

Re-attach the tube clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet.

Skip to Step 2.

For Style 2, disconnect the tube clamp on the back of the

product and insert copper tubing through the clamp as

shown. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a

compression nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the

compression nut. Do not overtighten. Re-attach the tube

clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet. Move to Step 2.

2. Turn shut-off valve ON. Check For Leaks. Tighten any

connections (including connections at the valve) or nuts that

leak.

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

local water conditions require periodic cleaning or a well is

your source of water supply, a second water strainer should

be installed in the ¼ in. (6.35 mm) water line. Obtain a water

strainer from your nearest appliance dealer. Install at either

tube connection.

4. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

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. Roll out the refrigerator and use a level to check the floor at

the back from side-to-side. If needed, use shims to level the

back of the refrigerator if it is uneven. Roll the refrigerator

back into place with the rear rollers on top of any shim(s)

used so that the rear of the refrigerator is level.

2. With the rear already level and the refrigerator in place, use

the bottom leveling screws to level the refrigerator from side-

to-side. They are part of the front roller assemblies, which are

found at the base of the refrigerator on either side.

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.

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

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

• Your refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently to keep

your rood items at the desired temperature. The high

efficiency compressor may cause your new refrigerator to run

longer than your old one, and you may hear a pulsating or

high-pitched sound.

• Water dripping on the defrost heater during a defrost cycle

may cause a sizzling sound.

• You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating the air

through the refrigerator and freezer compartments.

• 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.

USINGYOUR

REFRIGERATOR

3. Depending on your model, to level your refrigerator you may

either turn the screw clockwise to raise that side of the

refrigerator or turn the screw counterclockwise to lower that

side. Place a level on top of the refrigerator to check

adjustments.

4. If the doors do not close on their own, you will need to raise

the front of the refrigerator so it is slightly higher than the

back. To do this, turn both leveling screws clockwise 1/2turn.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to turn both screws an equal amount

or the refrigerator will no longer be level side-to-side.

5. Open doors and check if they close automatically. If not,

repeat steps 3 and 4.

6. Using a level, check to see if the refrigerator is still level side-

to-side. Readjust if necessary.

¸ iii'! i ,iiiiiii iii y....

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 or the new sounds are normal. Hard

surfaces, like the floor, walls, and cabinets, can make the sounds

seem louder than they actually are. 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 rill the ice

maker for each cycle.

• The defrost timer will click when the automatic defrost cycle

begins and ends. Also, the Thermostat Control (or

Refrigerator Control depending on the model) will click when

cycling on and off.

In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air

flow 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 rood, wrap or cover foods tightly.

(See the "Refrigerator Safety" section for details.)

For your convenience, the refrigerator controls are preset at

the factory. Controls for the refrigerator and freezer are located

in the top of the refrigerator section.

When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the

control(s} are still preset. The control(s) should be at the

"mid-settings" as shown for each style of control.

NOTE: To turn your refrigerator of[, turn the refrigerator control to

the word OFF or until the word OFF appears, as shown below.

Your product will not cool when the refrigerator control is set to

OFR

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.

IMPORTANT: If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled

completely, your rood may spoil. Turning the Refrigerator or

Freezer Control(s) to a higher (colder) than recommended

setting will not cool the compartments any faster.

On models with two controls, the Freezer Control functions as an

airflow director. Setting "1" will direct more of the cold air into the

refrigerator section, while setting "5" (or "T' depending on your

model) will direct more of the cold air into the freezer section. The

cold air flows from the freezer compartment through the top vent

into your fresh food section (see diagram in the "Ensuring Proper

Air Circulation" section). On models with one control, the airflow

does not require adjustment.

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding

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

refrigerator. The "mid-settings" indicated in the previous section

should be correct for normal household refrigerator usage. The

controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like

and when ice cream is firm.

For models with two controls:

The Refrigerator Control functions as the thermostat for the entire

product (refrigerator and freezer sections). The higher the number

setting, the longer the compressor will run to keep the

temperature colder. The Freezer Control adjusts the cold air flow

from the freezer to the refrigerator.

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer,

start by adjusting the refrigerator first. Wait 24 hours after the

refrigerator adjustment to check the freezer temperature. If it is

too warm or too cold, then adjust the Freezer Control as well.

For models with a single control:

The Temperature Control functions as the thermostat for the

entire product (refrigerator and freezer sections). The higher the

number setting, the longer the compressor will run to keep the

temperature colder.

Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Always

remember to wait at least 24 hours between adjustments.

piece bin. Eggs may be stored in the egg tray or loose in the bin.

NOTE: Store eggs in a covered container for long term

storage. If your model does not have an egg storage bin,

store eggs in their original container on an interior shelf.

FREEZERFEATURES

Your model may have some or all of these features. Features that

can be purchased separately as product accessories are labeled

with the word "Accessory." Not all accessories will fit all models.

If you are interested in purchasing one of the accessories, please

call the toll-flee number on the cover or in the "Assistance or

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. This simply means that moisture in the food and air

inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals.

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

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

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

freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave

enough room for the door to close tightly.

NOTE: For more information on preparing food for freezing,

check a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

DOORFEATI ES

Your model may have some or all of these features. Features that

CARINGFORYOUR

REFRIGERATOR

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.

To clean 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 sort 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] or 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 sort

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.

5. Clean the condenser coils regularly. Coils may need to be

cleaned as often as every other month. This may help save

energy.

Style 1 - Condenser coils behind base grille:

• Remove the base grille (see the "Base Grille" section).

• Use a vacuum with an extended attachment to clean the

condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.

• Replace the base grille when finished.

Style 2 - Condenser coils in back of the refrigerator:

• Pull refrigerator out away from the wall (see the

"Unpacking Your Refrigerator" section).

• Vacuum coils when they are dusty or dirty.

• Roll refrigerator back into place. Make sure to leave 1 in.

(2.5 cm) between the cabinet back and the wall.

• Check to see if the refrigerator is level.

6. 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.

To change the refrigerator light:

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Reach behind the Control Panel and unscrew the bulb.

3. Replace the bulb with a 40-watt appliance bulb.

4. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

If the electricity in your house goes off, call the power company

and ask how long it will be off.

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

refrigerator doors closed to help food stay cold and frozen.

2. If the power will be out for more than 24 hours:

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

b) 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.

c) 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,

use these steps to prepare your refrigerator before you leave.

1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

• Raise wire shut-off 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,

follow these steps.

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 shut-off

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 OFF See the "Setting the Controls"

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 shut-off

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 OFF See the "Setting the Controls"

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 "Installing Your Refrigerator" section for preparation

instructions. Also, if your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker,

remember to reconnect the water supply to the refrigerator.

and shape. 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?

Expect that the water in the defrost pan will take longer to

evaporate. This is normal when it is hot or humid.

The motor seems to run too much

Is the room temperature hotter than normal?

Expect the motor to run longer under warm conditions. At

normal room temperatures, expect your motor to run about

40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it

to run even more of the time.

Has a large amount of foodjust been added to the

refrigerator?

Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator. It is

normal for the motor to run longer in order to cool the

refrigerator back down. See the "Refrigerator Features"

section.

Are the doors opened often?

Expect the motor to run longer when this occurs. 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.

• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding

conditions?

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

• Are the doors closed completely?

Push the doors firmly shut. If they will not shut all the way, 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 Your

Refrigerator" 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 "Understanding Sounds You May Hear" section.

The ice maker is not producing ice

• Is the freezer temperature cold enough to produce ice?

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

"Setting the Control(s)" section.

Is the wire shut-off arm in the OFF (arm up) position?

Lower the wire shut-off arm to the ON (arm down) position.

See the "ice Maker" section.

Is the water line shut-off valve to the refrigerator turned

on?

Turn on the water valve. See the "Connecting the Refrigerator

to a Water Source" 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.

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

been produced?

Check to see if your refrigerator has been connected to your

home water supply and the supply shut-off valve is turned on.

See the "Connecting the Refrigerator to a Water Source"

section.

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

with the water line. Call for service.

The ice maker is producing too little ice

• Has the ice maker just been installed?

Wait 72 hours for full ice production to begin. Once your

refrigerator is cooled down, the ice maker should begin

producing 70-120 cubes every 24 hours.

• Has a large amount of ice just been removed?

Allow 24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.

• Is the control set correctly?

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

• Is the water shut-off valve turned completely on?

Turn valve on fully. See the "Connecting the Refrigerator to a

Water Source" section.

Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator?

This filter may be clogged or installed incorrectly. First, check

the filter installation instructions to ensure that the filter was

installed correctly and is not clogged. If installation or

clogging is not a problem, call a technician or other qualified

person.

Off-taste, odor or grey 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 for 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 Your Refrigerator" section.

• Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur)?

A filter may need to be installed to remove the minerals.

• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator?

Grey 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 gallons (8 to12 L) or 6

to 7 minutes initially. Discard discolored ice.

The water dispenser will not operate properly

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 bar

until the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by

dispensing and discarding 2 to 3 gallons (8 to 12 L) of water.

Cleaning the system 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 shut-off valve not turned on or the water line

connected at the source?

Check to be sure the water shut-off valve is turned on and the

water source is connected to the refrigerator. See the

"Connecting the Refrigerator to a Water Source" section for

directions.

• Is the water shut-off valve clogged or incorrectly

installed?

See the "Connecting the Refrigerator to a Water Source"

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.

• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator?

The filter may be clogged or incorrectly installed. First, check

the filter installation instructions to ensure that the filter was

installed correctly and is not clogged. If installation or

clogging is not a problem, call for service.

Water leaking from the dispenser

9,",' __

• Is the glass not being held under the water dispenser long

enough, causing water to drip?

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.

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.

The divider between the two compartments is warm

The warmth is probably due to normal operation of the

automatic exterior moisture control. If still concerned, call for

service.

Temperature istoo warm

• Are the air vents blocked in either compartment? This

prevents the movement of cold air from the freezer to the

refrigerator.

Remove any objects from in front of the air vents. See the

"Ensuring Proper Air Circulation" section for the location of air

vents.

Are the door(s) opened often?

Be aware that the refrigerator will warm when this occurs. In

order to keep the refrigerator cool, 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.

• Has a large amount of food just been added to the

refrigerator or freezer?

Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator. It can

take several hours for the refrigerator to return to the normal

temperature.

• Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding

conditions?

See the "Setting the Controls" section.

There is interior moisture build-up

• Are the air vents blocked in the refrigerator?

Remove any objects from in front of the air vents. See the

"Ensuring Proper Air Circulation" section for the location of air

vents.

Are the door(s) opened often?

Toavoid humidity build-up, 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.

(When the door is opened, humidity from the room air enters

the refrigerator. The more often the door is opened, the faster

humidity builds up, especially when the room itself is very

humid.)

• Is the room humid?

It is normal for moisture to build up inside the refrigerator

when the room air is humid.

• Is the food packaged correctly?

Check that all food is securely wrapped. Wipe off damp food

containers before placing in the refrigerator.

• Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding

conditions?

See the "Setting the Controls" section.

• Was a self-defrost cycle completed?

It is normal for droplets to form on the back wall after the

refrigerator self-defrosts.

The doors are difficult to open

• Are the gaskets dirty or sticky?

Clean gaskets and the surface that they touch. Rub a thin

coat of paraffin wax on the gaskets following cleaning.

The doors will not close completely

• Are food packages blocking the door open?

Rearrange containers so that they fit more tightly and take up

less space.

• Is the ice bin out of position?

Push the ice bin in all the way.

• Are the crisper cover, pans, shelves, bins, or baskets out

of position?

Put the crisper cover and all pans, shelves, bins, and baskets

back into their correct positions. See the "Refrigerator
