Westinghouse Refrigerator Troubleshooting

TroubleSolution
Refrigerator is too warmEnsure food is allowed to cool before placing inside the refrigerator.
Ensure the appliance is set up as per instructions.
Ensure that contents are not obstructing the cooling vents.
Ensure the door is not held open or is being opened too frequently
Freezer is too warmAdjust temperature to a colder setting.
Ensure food is allowed to cool before placing inside the freezer.
Ensure the appliance is set up as per instructions.
Ensure that contents are not obstructing the cooling vents.
Ensure the door is not held open or is being opened too frequently.
Food is freezing in the refrigeratorAdjust temperature to a warmer setting.
Ensure that fruit and vegetables are stored in the crisper. Items with a high water content should not be placed near the cooling vents.
Unable to change temperature settingsRefer to Refer to sections “temperature control” and “about the user interface”. Ensure that user interface is in “awake” mode before trying to adjust temperature settings.
Motor noise (compressor)Nothing. This is normal as your new refrigerator uses a high-speed compressor which switches on and off during operation.
Note that the compressor noise may seem louder at the start of the on cycle.
A clicking noise heard just before the compressor starts.Nothing. This is normal as your new refrigerator has an automatic switching action of the temperature control, turning the compressor on and off.
Occcasional gurgling, similar to water boiling.Nothing. As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator system.
Airflow noise.Nothing, this is normal as your new refrigerator uses high efficiency fans to circulate air. Fan speed and noise may increase during periods of heavy usage or hot weather.
Rattling and other noises.Ensure that the cabinet is level and stable, refer to Installation Instructions.
Check the surrounds of the appliance to ensure there is nothing touching or placed on top of the appliance.
Ensure that contents of the appliance are not placed in such a way that they are vibrating (such as bottles).
Excess moisture build up in crisperEnsure that the crisper is not over packed.
Adjust crisper humidity slides.
Crisper bin can not be removedIf crisper bin interferes with the door bins, remove door bins before removing crisper.
Position cabinet so that the door can be fully opened.
Freezing items in the crisperAdjust temperature to a warmer setting.
Appliance will not run It is normal for the freezer fan not to operate during the automatic defrost cycle, or for a short time after the appliance is switched on.Ensure that the cord is plugged into a live power outlet and outlet is switched on.
Ensure that the household circuit breaker has not tripped or that the fuse has not blown.
The appliance maybe in defrost mode, check again in half an hour.
Compressor motor seems to run too long At normal room temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even more often.Ensure that the doors are not held open Check that large amounts of warm food have not just been placed inside the appliance. Note that the appliance will run more than normal just after you install it or when adjusting to temperature setting changes.
The exterior of the appliance is warm or hot to touch This is normal because the appliance transfers heat from the inside out through the outer panels and the divider between the doors.Ensure the appliance has the external clearances recommended in the section “Installing your new appliance”.
The exterior of the cabinet will be much warmer on warmer days it may even feel hot to touch, as the appliance is working harder.
User interface will not respond To ensure settings are not accidentally changed the user interface will go into sleep mode when not in use.
