Solutions to Common Problems
Refrigerator Operations
Concern
Potential Cause
Common Solution
Compressor does not
run.
Cooling system is turned Off.
•
Refrigerator is in defrost cycle.
•
Plug at wall outlet is disconnected.
•
House fuse is blown or a tripped circuit
•
breaker.
Power outage.
•
Electronic control system keeps the
•
refrigerator at a constant temperature.
Turn cooling system On. See Controls Section for
•
location of cooling system On/Off button.
This is normal for a fully automatic defrost refrigerator.
•
The defrost cycle occurs periodically, lasting about 30
minutes.
Ensure plug is tightly pushed into outlet.
•
Check/replace fuse with a 15 amp time-delay fuse.
•
Reset circuit breaker.
Check house lights. Call local Electric Company.
•
This is normal. Refrigerator goes on and off to keep
•
temperature constant.
Refrigerator runs too
much or too long.
Room or outside weather is hot.
•
Refrigerator has recently been disconnected
•
for a period of time.
Automatic ice maker is operating.
•
Doors are opened too frequently or too long.
•
Refrigerator/freezer door may be slightly
•
open.
Freezer control is set too cold (control found
•
on side of left hand door).
Fresh food/freezer gasket is dirty, worn,
•
cracked, or poorly fitted.
This model is provided with a high-efficiency,
•
variable-speed compressor.
It’s normal for the refrigerator to work longer under
•
these conditions.
It takes 8-12 hours for the refrigerator to cool down
•
completely.
Ice maker operation causes refrigerator to run slightly
•
more.
Warm air entering the refrigerator causes it to run more.
•
Open doors less often.
Ensure refrigerator is level. Keep food and containers
•
from blocking door. See Concern section, Opening/
Closing of Doors/ Drawers.
Set freezer control to warmer setting until refrigerator
•
temperature is satisfactory. Allow 24 hours for
temperature to stabilize.
Clean or change gasket. Leaks in door seal will cause
•
refrigerator to run longer in order to maintain desired
temperatures.
It is normal for the compressor to run for long periods
•
of time, instead of starting and stopping frequently.
Digital temperature
displays are flashing.
Electronic control system has detected a
•
performance problem.
Call your Electrolux service representative, who can
•
interpret any messages or number codes flashing on
the digital displays.

setting. Meat should be stored at a temperature just
below the freezing point for maximum fresh storage
time. It is normal for ice crystals to form due to the
moisture content of meat.
