Possible Causes and/or Recommended Solutions
Your refrigerator has been 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. See either the front cover or the Warranty for contact information.
The dispenser light is set to OFF - On some models, the dispenser light will operate only when the
dispenser paddle is pressed. If you want the dispenser light to stay on continuously, see "Water and
Ice Dispensers."
Doors have been open longer than 10 minutes - Close the doors and drawers to reset, and open to
resume lighted task.
Shelf hooks are not fully engaged in shelf supports - Check that the rear shelf hooks are completely
seated into the slots in the shelf supports.
Shelf supports, fastened to the back wall of the refrigerator cabinet, are loose - Check all shelf
support screws to ensure they are fully tightened. Tighten all loose screws.
Doors have been open for longer than 10 minutes - Close the doors and drawers to reset, and then
open to resume lighted tasks.
The refrigerator is in Cooling Off mode - Exit Cooling Off mode. See "Using the Controls."
The refrigerator controls' initialization process did not complete successfully - Unplug the
refrigerator, wait 5 seconds. Plug in the refrigerator, and wait 30 seconds before opening the doors
or drawers, or touching the control panel.
The drawer front was recently removed - Make sure the temperature control wires have been
properly reconnected. See "Remove and Replace Drawer Fronts."
The compressor in your new refrigerator regulates temperature more efficiently and uses less energy
than older models. During various stages of operation, you may hear normal operating sounds that are
unfamiliar.
The following noises are normal:
Buzzing/Clicking - Heard when the water valve opens and closes to dispense water or fill the ice
maker. If the refrigerator is connected to a water line, this is normal. If the refrigerator is not
connected to a water line, turn off the ice maker.
Repetitive Clicking - Dual evaporator valve regulating the cooling operation.
Cracking/Clatter - Heard when ice is ejected from the ice maker mold and then falls into the ice
storage bin.
Popping - Heard when the inside walls contract/expand, especially during initial cool down.
Hissing/Dripping - Flow of refrigerant, or flow of oil in the compressor.
Pulsating/Whirring - Heard when the fans/compressor adjust to optimize performance during
normal operation.
Rattling - Heard when water passes through the water line, or due to the flow of refrigerant. Rattling
may also come from items placed on top of the refrigerator.
Water running or gurgling - Heard when ice melts during the defrost cycle and water runs into the
drain pan.
Sizzling - Heard when water drips onto the heater during the defrost cycle.
Vibration - The refrigerator may not be steady. Adjust the leveling screws and lower the leveling
foot until it is firmly against the floor. See "Refrigerator Leveling, Door Closing and Alignment."
