Is the glass not being held under the water dispenser long

enough, causing water to drip?

Hold the container under the water dispenser two to three

seconds after releasing the dispenser lever. Water may

continue to dispense during this time.

Is an ice cube stuck in the chute and holding the trap

door open?

Remove the cube.

Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator?

The water filtration system may have air in the lines, causing

water to drip. Additional flushing may help clear air from the

lines. Normal dispenser use should flush air from the lines

within 24 to 72 hours.

Water flow from the dispenser decreases noticeably

Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator?

The filter may be full or incorrectly installed. Depending on

your model, remove the water filter cartridge (see the “Base

Grille Water Filtration and Monitoring System or Interior Water

Filtration System" section.) Operate the dispenser. If the

water flow increases noticeably, your filter is full and needs to

be replaced.

Hie dispenser water is not cool enough

Has the refrigerator been newly Installed?

Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool completely.

Has a large amount of water been recently dispensed?

Allow 24 hours for the water to cool completely.

Has water not been recently dispensed?

The first glass of water may not be cool. Discard the first

glass of water.

Hie divider between the two compartments is warm

The warmth is probably due to normal operation of the

automatic exterior moisture control. If still concerned, call for

service.

Temperature is too warm

Are the air vents blocked In either compartment?

This prevents the movement of cold air from the freezer to the

refrigerator. Remove any objects from in front of the air vents.

Refer to the “Ensuring Proper Air Circulation” section for the

location of air vents.

Are the door{s) opened often?

Be aware that the refrigerator will warm when this occurs. In

order to keep the refrigerator cool, try to get everything you

need out of the refrigerator at once, keep food organized so it

is easy to find, and close the door as soon as the food is

removed.

Has a large amount of food just been added to the

refrigerator or freezer?

Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator. It can

take several hours for the refrigerator to return to the normal

temperature.

Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding

conditions?

Refer to the “Setting the Controls” section.

There is interior moisture build-up

Are the air vents blocked in the refrigerator?

Remove any objects from in front of the air vents. Refer to the

“Ensuring Proper Air Circulation” section for the location of air

vents.

Are the door{s) opened often?

To avoid humidity build-up, try to get everything you need out

of the refrigerator at once, keep food organized so it is easy

to find, and close the door as soon as the food is removed.

(When the door is opened, humidity from the room air enters

the refrigerator. The more often the door is opened, the faster

humidity builds up, especially when the room itself is very

humid.)

Is the room humid?

It is normal for moisture to build up inside the refrigerator

when the room air is humid.

Is the food packaged correctly?

Check that all food is securely wrapped. Wipe off damp food

containers before placing in the refrigerator.

Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding

conditions?

Refer to the “Setting the Controls” section.

Was a self-defrost cycle completed?

It is normal for droplets to form on the back wall after the

refrigerator self-defrosts.

The doors will not close completely

Are food packages blocking the door open?

Rearrange containers so that they fit more tightly and take up

less space.

Is the ice bin or ice bucket out of position?

For models with an interior ice bin, push the ice bin in all the

way. If the ice bin does not go in all the way, it may not be put

in straight. Pull it out and try again. For models with an ice

bucket located on the freezer door, the bucket should sit

level. To remove the bucket, press the release button on the

right side of the bucket and lift straight up. Replace the

bucket in the door making sure it is properly aligned and

snapped securely into place. Refer to the “Ice Maker and

Storage Bin/Bucket” section.

Are the pans, shelves, bins, or baskets out of position?

Put the crisper cover and ail pans, shelves, bins, and baskets

back into their correct positions. See the “Crisper and Crisper

Cover” section for more information.

Are the gaskets sticking?

Clean gaskets according to the directions in the “Cleaning

Your Refrigerator” section.

Does the refrigerator wobble or seem unstable?

Level the refrigerator. Refer to the “Door Closing” or “Leveling

Your Refrigerator” section, depending on your model.

Were the doors removed during product installation and

not properly replaced?

Remove and replace the doors according to the “Removing

the Doors” section on some models, or call a qualified service

technician.

The doors are difficult to open

Are the gaskets dirty or sticky?

Clean gaskets according to the directions in the “Cleaning

Your Refrigerator” section.
