  First, ensure the refrigerator is properly plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet, avoiding extension cords. Check if the outlet is working by plugging in a lamp. If the outlet is functional, replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Also, make sure the refrigerator control is turned on. Finally, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down completely after installation.
