TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible Causes Solutions

Food is freezing

in the refrigerator

compartment.

Food with high water content was placed

near an air vent.

Rearrange items with high water content away from

air vents.

Refrigerator temperature control is set

incorrectly.

If the temperature is too cold, adjust the control one

increment at a time and wait for the temperature to

stabilize. Refer to the Setting the Controls section

for more information.

Refrigerator is installed in a cold location. When the refrigerator is operated in ambient

temperatures below 5°C, food can freeze in the

refrigerator compartment. The refrigerator should

not be operated in ambient temperatures below

13°C.

Frost or ice crystals form

on frozen food (outside

of package).

Door is opened frequently or for long periods

of time.

When the doors are opened often or for long periods

of time, warm, humid air enters the compartment.

This raises the temperature and moisture level

within the compartment. Increased moisture will

lead to frost and condensation. To lessen the effect,

reduce the frequency and duration of door openings.

Door is not closing properly. Refer to the Doors will not close correctly or pop

open section in the Troubleshooting section.

Refrigerator or Freezer

section is too cold.

Incorrect temperature control settings. If the temperature is too cold, adjust the control one

increment at a time and wait for the temperature to

stabilize. Refer to the Setting the Controls section

for more information.

Frost or ice crystals on

frozen food (inside of

sealed package).

Condensation from food with a high water

content has frozen inside of the food

package.

This is normal for food items with a high water

content.

Food has been left in the freezer for a long

period of time.

Do not store food items with high water content in

the freezer for a long period of time.

Icemaker is not making

enough ice.

Demand exceeds ice storage capacity. The icemaker will produce approximately 48 ~ 120

cubes in a 24 hour period.

House water supply is not connected, valve

is not turned on fully, or valve is clogged.

Connect the refrigerator to a cold water supply with

adequate pressure and turn the water shutoff valve

fully open.

If the problem persists, it may be necessary to

contact a plumber.

Water ﬁ lter has been exhausted. It is recommended that you replace the water ﬁ lter:

Approximately every six months.•

When the water ﬁ lter indicator turns on.•

When the water dispenser output decreases. •

When the ice cubes are smaller than normal.•

Low house water supply pressure. The water pressure must be between 150 ~ 500 kpa

on models without a water ﬁ lter and between 200 ~

500 kpa on models with a water ﬁ lter.

If the problem persists, it may be necessary to

contact a plumber.

Reverse Osmosis ﬁ ltration system is used. Reverse osmosis ﬁ ltration systems can reduce the

water pressure below the minimum amount and

result in icemaker issues. (Refer to Water Pressure

section.)

Tubing connecting refrigerator to house

supply valve is kinked.

The tubing can kink when the refrigerator is moved

during installation or cleaning resulting in reduced

water ﬂ ow. Straighten or repair the water supply line

and arrange it to prevent future kinks.
