Before calling for Service...
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 electric cord plugged
into a live circuit with proper
voltage (see Fig. 5).
- Have you checked your home's main fuses?
If there are noises or vibrations:
Most of the sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor,
walls and cabinets can make the sounds seem louder.
The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new
to you, and what may be making them.
- Slight hum
You may hear the refrigerator's
fan motor and moving air.
- Clicking
sounds
The thermostat
makes a definite click when the refrigerator
stops running. It also makes a sound when the refrigerator
starts. The defrost timer will click when the defrost cycle starts
and stops.
- Water sounds
When the refrigerator stops running, you may hear gurgling in
the tubing for a few minutes after it stops. You may also hear
the defrost water running into the defrost water pan.
- Ice maker sounds (optional)
If your refrigerator
has an ice maker, you may hear buzzing
(from the water valve), trickling water and the clatter of the ice
dumped into the bin.
If your ice maker will not operate:
- Has the freezer had enough time to get cold? With a new
refrigerator,
this might take overnight.
- Is the signal arm ON... in the down position?
- Is the water valve turned on? Is water getting to the ice
maker?
If there is water in the defrost
pan:
- This is normal in hot, muggy weather. The pan can even be
half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so that the pan does
not overflow.
lf the light does not work:
- Have you checked your home's main fuses?
- Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the
proper voltage?
lf a bulb is burned out:
1. Disconnect
the refrigerator from the power supply.
2. Reach behind the control console to find the bulb.
3. Remove the bulb (Fig. 15).
4. Replace with a same type bulb (available by our Service
Centres only).
lf the motor seems to run too much:
- Is the condenser free of dust and lint?
- On hot days, or if the room is warm, the motor naturally 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.
Remember:
Motor running time depends
on different things: number of
door openings,
amount of food stored, temperature
of the
room, setting of the temperature
controls.
If you have followed the above checks and your appliance still
does not work properly, get in touch with the Service Division.
State clearly what is wrong and the type and serial number of
your appliance
(these data are on the rating plate).
To replace
the mains cable:
1. Ask our Service Centres for replacement
mains cable.
TO REVERSE DOOR SWING
Please read these helpful
hints before you start:
- Before you start, turn refrigerator off and remove any food
from door shelves.
- When removing hinges, keep doors closed until ready to lift
free from cabinet.
- To remove doors, start at the top hinge and work down.
- To install doors, start at the bottom hinge and work up.
- Line up doors so they are even with the sides of the
cabinet and parallel with each other.
- Seal all unused holes with screws or plastic plugs. (Mois-
ture will enter any openings.)
- If refrigerator light does not go out when the door is closed,
the door may be too low. Use a thicker spacer if necessary.
- Door seal may be adjusted by moving the top hinge and by
adding or removing shims to the center and bottom hinges.
Cabinet
- Set door gap at 17.5 mm. The diameter of a dime is about
right. See figure.
- The refrigerator must be level and sitting on a solid floor.
