FAQs

• My refrigerator is making unfamiliar sounds. Is this normal?
  Your new, high-efficiency unit may introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds normally indicate your appliance is operating correctly. See the NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS section of your Use & Care Manual for more information.

• Why does my refrigerator run most of the time?

  • Today’s refrigerators are designed with a variable speed compressor to be more energy efficient than previous models.
  • This means your compressor reacts quickly to temperature fluctuations and circulates cold air based off your use and room temperature.

• What should I do if my ice maker is not making any ice in my refrigerator?

  • If your ice maker is not making any ice, check to see if the ice maker has been inadvertently turned off. Make sure the refrigerator is connected to the water line and/or the water valve is open. If your dispenser will not dispense water, check to see if the water filter is seated properly. Remove and reinstall the water filter until you hear it lock solidly into position.
  • Remember: the freezer needs up to 24 hours to stabilize after plugging it in before it produces ice.

• Can I adjust the shelves in my Side-by-Side refrigerator to fit my spacing needs?

  • Shelves are easily adjusted to suit individual needs. Before adjusting the shelves, remove all food.
  • Shelves are supported by side rails.
  • To adjust, lift up on the back of the shelf and pull forward.
  • Replace the shelf by sliding it on top of the formed rails on the side walls of the cabinet until the rear
    plastic hooks of the shelf lock into the rear of the cabinet liner.
