Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
My freezer does not work.
Make sure that your freezer is securely
plugged into a working
outlet.
Make sure that your power source has the
correct voltage. Your
freezer’s voltage rating is on a label on the
back of your freezer.
Check the house fuse or circuit breaker box
and replace the fuse
or reset the circuit breaker.
If a power failure occurs, the freezer turns
off. Wait until the
power is restored.
The freezer has a bad odor.
Make sure that all food with a strong odor
(like onions) is
wrapped or stored in airtight packaging.
Certain containers and wrapping materials
(such as paper, foil,
or plastic) can cause odors. If you think this
might be the case,
try using different containers or a different
brand of wrapping
material.
Check for spoiled food and remove it.
Clean the inside of your freezer. See
Cleaning your freezer on
page 10.
The freezer door does not close
completely.
Make sure that no food packages are in the
way.
Make sure that the door gasket (seal) is
clean. See Cleaning your
freezer on page 10.
If the door gasket does not seal, try heating
then cooling the
seal. You can use an electric hair dryer to
heat the seal.
Make sure that your freezer is level.
Make sure that the storage basket is in the
proper position.
