Problem

Possible cause

Temperature inside the

freezer is too warm.

• Temperature control is set too warm. Turn the

control to a cooler setting and allow several

hours for the temperature to stabilize.

• Door is kept open too long or is opened too fre-

quently. Warm air enters the freezer every time

the door is opened. Open the door less often.

• The door is not closed completely.
• The door gasket does not seal properly.
• A large amount of warm or hot food might have

been stored recently. Wait until the freezer has

had a chance to reach its selected temperature.

• The freezer has recently been disconnected for a

period of time. Four hours are required for the

freezer to cool down completely.

Temperature inside the

freezer is too cold.

• Temperature control is set too cold. Turn the

control to a warmer setting and allow several

hours for the temperature to stabilize.

Popping or cracking

sounds when compres-

sor comes on.

• Metal parts undergo expansion and contraction,

as in hot water pipes. This is normal. Sound will

level off or disappear as freezer continues to

run.

Bubbling or gurgling

sound, like water boil-

ing.

• Refrigerant (used to cool freezer) is circulating

throughout the system. This is normal.

Vibration.

• Check to make sure that the freezer is level.
• Floor is uneven or weak. Freezer rocks on the

floor when it is moved slightly. Be sure floor can

adequately support freezer. Level the freezer by

putting wood or metal shims under the freezer.

• The freezer is touching the wall. Level again the

freezer and move it from the wall. See "Installa-

tion Instructions".

Moisture forms on inside

freezer walls.

• Weather is hot and humid, which increases in-

ternal rate of frost buildup. This is normal.

• Door is slightly open.
• Door is kept open too long, or is opened too fre-

quently. Open the door less often.

• The door is not properly sealed.
