POSSIBLE CAUSE
• If the water dispenser has not been used for a long time, dispense water
in regular manner until all water in the system is replenished with fresh water.
• Poor-tasting incoming water. Install a water filter—see Water Filter section.
• Allow about 24 hours for water to cool to proper temperature after
refrigerator is first installed.
• If water dispenser has not been used for a long time, water in first
glass will not be as cool as in succeeding glasses.
• If the water system has been drained, allow several hours for replenished
supply to chill.
• Water supply line turned off or not connected.
• Supply line may be clogged with sediment.
• If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is first installed, there may be air
in the water system. Press the dispenser pad for at least two minutes to remove
trapped air from the water line and to fill the water system.
• Normal warmth is created by automatic energy saver system circulating warm
liquid around front edge of freezer compartment to help prevent condensation
on outside of refrigerator in hot, humid weather.
• Not unusual during periods of high humidity.
• Too frequent or too long door openings.
• In humid weather, air carries moisture into refrigerator when doors are opened.
• The drain in the bottom of the refrigerator may be clogged. Remove any ice on
the freezer bottom and clean the drain. Refer to Care and Cleaning section.
• When using the dispenser use a glass no taller than six inches (15 cm) tall. A taller
glass may be jamming cubes in the funnel chute. They can fuse inside the chute
and drop out later, leaving water or ice on the floor.
• Foods with strong odors should be tightly covered.
• Check for spoiled food.
• Interior needs cleaning. Refer to Care and Cleaning section.
• Defrost water system needs cleaning.
• Keep open box of baking soda in refrigerator; replace every 3 months.
• No power at outlet.
• Light bulb needs replacing. See Care and Cleaning section.
