PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
SOLUTIONS
The motor seems to run too
much
High efficiency compressor and fans
Larger, more efficient refrigerators run longer at lower, more
energy efficient speeds.
The room or outdoor temperature is
hot.
It is normal for the refrigerator to work longer under
these conditions. For optimum performance, place
the refrigerator in an indoor, temperature controlled
environment. See “Location Requirements.”
A large amount of warm food has been
recently added.
Warm food will cause the refrigerator to run longer until the
air cools to the desired temperature.
The door(s) are opened too frequently
or for too long.
Warm air entering the refrigerator causes it to run more.
Open the door less often.
The refrigerator door or freezer drawer
is ajar.
Make sure the refrigerator is level. See “Door Closing and
Door Alignment.” Keep food and containers from blocking
the door.
The refrigerator control is set too cold. Adjust the refrigerator control to a less cold setting until the
refrigerator temperature is as desired.
The door or drawer gasket is dirty,
worn, or cracked.
Clean or change the gasket. Leaks in the door seal will
cause the refrigerator to run longer in order to maintain
desired temperatures.
The lights do not work
Your refrigerator is equipped with LED
lighting which does not need to be
replaced.
If there is power to the refrigerator and the lights do not
illuminate when a door or drawer is opened, call for service
or assistance.
The dispenser light is set to OFF
On some models, the dispenser light will operate only
when a dispenser paddle is pressed. If you want the
dispenser light to stay on continuously, see “Water and Ice
Dispensers.”

minutes
Close the doors and drawer to reset, and open to resume
lighted task.

and operates quietly.
Due to this reduction in operating noise
you may notice unfamiliar noises that are
normal.

expected
High-efficiency compressor and fans
Larger, more efficient refrigerators run
longer at lower, more energy efficient
speeds.
