Troubleshooting

Be sure to check these items first:

• Is there a power outage in the area?
• Is the household fuse blown or the circuit breaker tripped?
• Is the appliance properly connected to the electrical supply?

Many problems can be resolved without the need for a service call. See the following list as a reference of possible solutions of simple problems.

Symptom	Possible Cause	Potential Remedy
Appliance is not cooling.	Appliance has been switched off.	Check display to make sure the unit is not switched off. If display reads “OFF”, simultaneously press and hold QUICK CHILL + PANTRY to return to operating mode.
The compressor is constantly running or running too much.	Appliance opened frequently.	Do not open the appliance unnecessarily.
	The ventilation openings have been covered.	Remove obstacles at the ventilation openings located at the base of the unit and in the refrigerator interiors.
	A large amount of product, or warm product was placed into the appliance.	The compressor will run more than normal until the product cools. The more that is added, the longer the motor will run.
	Excessively warm environment.	Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight, or near a heat source. If the appliance is in an unusually warm environment, the compressor will run more.
	Leveling legs are not extended.	Extend the leg height to improve air circulation. This will reduce the amount of time the compressor needs to run.
	Door gasket is not sealing.	Inspect the condition of the gasket. If damaged, cold air can escape the cabinet and cause the compressor to run more than normal.
Control panel LED lights and display do not illuminate. Control buttons do not function.	Drawer is closed.	The top drawer must be open for the control panel to illuminate and be functional.
Food products and beverages in the unit are too cold.	Temperature has been settoo low.	Increase the temperature. See “Setting the temperature”. Make sure the unit is not in “Quick Chill” mode.
	Product placed too close to ventilation holes.	Rearrange the bottles, so that nothing obstructs the interior ventilation holes.
The interior light (LED) does not work.	The unit is set to Sabbath mode.	Disengage Sabbath mode. See “Special Functions” section.
There are unpleasant odors coming from the appliance.	Strong smelling food is not sealed.	Clean the appliance. Seal strong smelling food (See chapter “Odors”).
The divider between the upper and lower drawers feels warm.	Normal operation, as part of the moisture control system for the exterior of the unit.	No action required.
Display indicates “HI” and the alarm is sounding.	Temperature is too warm inside the refrigerator because the door has been left open for an excessive amount of time.	Press the alarm button once to temporarily deactivate the ALARM sound and LED indicator. Close the door, and allow the unit to cool.
