To Next PageTo Next PageWhy does my Westinghouse WQE6870BA Refrigerator water have an odd taste or odor?
If the water has not been dispensed for an extended period of time, draw and discard 10-12 glasses of water to freshen the supply. Also, the unit might not be properly connected to the cold water line, so connect the unit to the cold water line that supplies water to the kitchen faucet.
Why does moisture collect on the inside of my Westinghouse Refrigerator walls?
Moisture can collect due to hot and humid weather, which increases the rate of frost buildup and internal sweating. Also, adjust the flipper mullion.
Why is the compressor not running in my Westinghouse Refrigerator?
The refrigerator may be in defrost cycle, which is normal for a fully automatic defrost refrigerator and lasts about 30 minutes. The plug at the electrical outlet could be disconnected, so ensure the plug is tightly pushed into the outlet. A house fuse may be blown or the circuit breaker tripped; check/replace the fuse with a 15 amp time-delay fuse and reset the circuit breaker. There could also be a power outage; check house lights and call the local electric company.
Why does moisture collect on the outside of my Westinghouse Refrigerator or between the doors?
This is normal in humid weather. When humidity is lower, the moisture should disappear.
