la Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems often result from little
things you can find and fix yourself without tools
of any kind.
If your refrigerator will not operate:
• Is the power supply cord plugged into a live
circuit with the proper voltage? (See page 4.)
• Have you checked your home's main fuses or
circuit breaker box?
• Is the Run Switch on RUN?
If there is a rattiing or jingiing noise, or other
unfamiliar sound:
• Is something on top or behind the refrigerator
making noise when the refrigerator is running?
If the light does not work:
• Have you checked your home’s main fuses or
circuit breaker box?
• Is the power supply cord plugged into a live
circuit with the proper voitage? (See page 4.)
If a bulb is burned out:
• See instructions for changing the light bulb on
page 6. Use appliance bulbs only.
If the motor seems to run too much:
• Is the condenser, behind the refrigerator, free
from dust and lint?
• On hot days; or if the room is warm, the motor
naturaliy runs longer.
• If the door has been opened a lot, or if a large
amount of food has been put in, the motor will
run longer to cool down the interior.
• Is frost build-up more than 5^4 inch (6 mm)?
Remember: Motor running time depends on
different
things:
number
of
door
openings,
amount of food stored,temperatureof the room,
