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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

REFRIGERATORUSE REFRIGERATORFEATURES
qomG ntis
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 flooring and surrounding structures, can
make the sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds
of sounds and what may be making them.
• 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,
• Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant or items
stored inside the refrigerator.
• As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator.
• You may hear water running into the drain pan when the
refrigerator is defrosting.
• You may hear clicking sounds when the refrigerator starts or
stops running.
Foryourconvenbnce,yourrefrigeratorcontrol is preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
control is still preset to the m_d-settingas shown.
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
removing them to avoid impact from dropping.
Your model may have glass or wire shelves. Store similar foods
together and adjust the shelves to fit different heights. This
reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves energy.
To Remove and Replace Shelves:
1. Remove the shelf by lifting it up and out of the shelf brackets.
Remove the shelf.
2. Replace the shelf by inserting it into the shelf brackets.
NOTE: Be sure the shelf is level.

• Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to
clean the condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.
• Replace the base grille.
7. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
REFRIGERATORCARE
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Clean the refrigerator about once a month to avoid build-up of
odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
To clean your refrigerator:
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves, 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 0.95 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, or cleaners containing
chlorine. These can scratch or damage materials. Dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth. For additional protection against

these steps to prepare it for the move.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Unplug the refrigerator.
3. Clean, wipe, and dry it thoroughly.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Trythe solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Your refrigerator will not operate
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.
• Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
• Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.
• Is the Refrigerator Control turned to the OFF position?
See "Using the Control."
The lights do not work
4. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them
together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.
5. Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the back of
the refrigerator.
When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to
the "Installation Instructions" section for preparation instructions.
Is the door 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 "Using the Control."
• Is the door closed completely? Push the door firmly shut. If
it will not shut all the way, see "The door will not close
completely" later in this section.
• Are the condenser coils dirty? This obstructs air transfer
and makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils.
See "Cleaning."
Temperature is too warm
Is the door 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? Adding a large amount of food warms the
refrigerator. It can take several hours for the refrigerator to
return to the normal temperature.
• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See "Using the Control."
• Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not
install the refrigerator behind a cabinet door or block the base
grille.
• Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
• Is a light bulb loose in the socket or burned out? See
"Changing the Light Bulb."
The motor seems to run too much
Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the
motor to run longer under warm conditions. At normal
outdoor 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 food just 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.
There is interior moisture buildup
Is the door opened often? To avoid humidity buildup, 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 it humid? It is normal for moisture to build up inside the
refrigerator when the 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.
• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See "Using the Control."
The door is difficult to open
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
• Is the gasket dirty or sticky? Clean the gasket and the
surface that it touches. Rub a thin coat of paraffin wax on the
gasket following cleaning.
The door will not close completely
• Are food packages blocking the door open? Rearrange
containers so that they fit more tightly and take up less
space.
• Are the shelves out of position? Put the shelves back into
their correct positions. See "Refrigerator Use" for more
information.
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
• Is the gasket sticking? Clean the gasket and the surface
that it touches. Rub a thin coat of paraffin wax on the gasket
following cleaning.
