WHAT TO DO WHEN...

The refrigerator does not work.	Check if any fuse is broken in the electric facility. Check if the power cord is correctly plugged. Check if the power outlet is not damaged. Identify if there are any high consume electrical appliances working at the same time, unplug those that are not necessary.
There is a power interruption.	In case of a black out, call your electric company and ask how long it will last. In case of a 24 hour or less black out, do not open the refrigerator; this will keep the food fresh. In case of a longer black out, do one of the following options: Pull out all of the frozen food and keep them in an ice chest. Put 2 lbs (0,907 Kg) of frozen ice (make sure you use gloves) for each square foot (28 L) inside the freezer. This task will preserve the food for 2 to 4 days. While handling dry ice (CO₂), wear gloves to protect your hands from frostbite. In case you do not possess neither ice chest or dry ice (CO₂), consume your food as soon as possible.
The temperature of the refrigerator or the freezer is too warm or hot.	Check that the temperature control is in the recommended position. Place the refrigerator away from any heat sources or direct sunlight. Open the doors only when is necessary. There is too many food that blocks the air vents. Don't let the doors open for a long period of time.
I can hear some weird or abnormal sounds.	Check that the refrigerator is placed over an even leveled surface, if not, adjust the refrigerator using the leveling height adjusting screws. Remove the unnecessary object from the back or top of the refrigerator. Check that the voltage is the correct one, if not call your electric company.
There are some odors in the refrigerator.	Store all food in sealed containers.
Some humidity is formed in the cabinet's surface.	When the weather is humid is normal. The door might be opened, check that is properly closed.
The front part of the refrigerator is getting warm.	Do not worry, is part of the normal functioning of the refrigerator, and this happens in order to avoid condensation or "sweat". If this occurs, just clean with a dry piece of cloth.
The compressor works too frequently and for extended periods of time.	Check if the temperature controls are placed in the maximum, if so, placed them in the middle setting. Check that the doors are properly closed. Do not store over heated products. Do not let the doors open for a long period of time. Move away from any heat sources the refrigerator.

REMEMBER: In a power failure, a full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked goods.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR REFRIGERATOR

THE OVERALL PERFORMANCE OR EFFICIENCY OF YOUR REFRIGERATOR MAY BE AFFECTED IF:

It is placed near a heat source or humid area.
