Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.

IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems

of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous

- even if they will sit for "just a few days." If you are getting rid of

your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help

prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:

• Takeoff the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily

climb inside.

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

The On/Off switch is located on the top right-hand side of the

freezer compartment.

• To turn on the ice maker, slide the control to the ON (left)

position.

• To manually turn off the ice maker, slide the control to the

OFF (right) position.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The ice maker

sensors will automatically stop ice production, but the control will

remain in the ON (left) position.

REMEMBER:

• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the

first three batches of ice produced.

• The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of

the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the

ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener

chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker

and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot

be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating

properly and is well maintained.

• Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage

bin. This can cause damage to the ice container and the

dispenser mechanism.

• Do not store anything on top of or inthe ice maker or storage

bin.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin

1. Hold the base of the storage bin with both hands and press

the release button to lift the storage bin up and out.

NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the

OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The

sensor cover ("flipper door") on the left wall of the freezer

stops the ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or

the storage bin is removed.

2. Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make

sure it is securely in place.

WaterFilterStatus Light (on some models)

The water filter status light will help you know when to change

your water filter. When the water filter status display changes

from "GOOD" to "ORDER," this tells you that it is almost time to

change the water filter cartridge. Replace the water filter

cartridge when the water filter status display changes to

"REPLACE." If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker

decreases noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should

be replaced at least every 6 months depending on your water

quality and usage.

After changing the water filter, reset the status light by pressing

and holding the FILTER button for 3 seconds. The status light will

change from "REPLACE" to "GOOD" when the system is reset.

Changing the Water Filter

turn the cap until it snaps into place.

NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water

will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the

base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.

5. Remove the covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are

still in place after the covers are removed.

6. Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop

back out when the filter is fully engaged.

7. Flush the water system. See "Water and Ice Dispensers."

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.

However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid

buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any

odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must

thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor

transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window

sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,

concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing

petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or

gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh

cleaning tools.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a

mild detergent in warm water.

3. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean

sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

4. On some models, wash glass door panels with a clean

sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

NOTES:

Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, furniture, toys, or

other objects. Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the

glass may weaken its structure, causing an increased risk

of breakage at a later date.

• Do not close the doors until all shelves, drawers and bins

are in place.

There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal

home operating environments. If the environment is

particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in

the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to

3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.

If you need to clean the condenser:

• Remove the base grille.

• Use a vacuum cleaner with asoft brush to clean the grille,

the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area

of the condenser.

•Replace the base grille when finished.

6. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

NOTE: Not all bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to replace

the bulb with one of the same size, shape and wattage.

Replacement bulbs are available from your dealer.

• The dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be changed.

• All other lights require a 40-watt bulb.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove light shield when applicable.

NOTE: To clean the light shield, wash it with warm water and

liquid detergent. Rinse and dry the shield well.

3. Remove light bulb and replace with one of the same size,

shape and wattage.

4. Replace light shield when applicable.

First try the solutions suggested here or visit our website and reference FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

to possibly avoid the cost of a service call.

In the U.S.A., www.maytag.com In Canada, www.maytag.ca

The refrigerator will not operate

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into agrounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

•Power cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong

outlet.

• Is outlet working? Plug in a lamp to see if the outlet is

working.

•Household fuse blown or circuit breaker tripped? Replace

the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues,

call an electrician.

•Are controls on? Make sure the refrigerator controls are on.

See "Using the Controls."

• New installation? Allow 24 hours following installation for the

refrigerator to cool completely.

NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls to coldest setting will

not cool either compartment more quickly.

The motor seems to run too much

Your new refrigerator may run longer than your old one due to its

high-efficiency compressor and fans. To maximize energy

efficiency, the compressor changes speed to provide just the

right amount of cooling as it is needed. Your refrigerator may run

as much as 100% of the time, but it will still use less energy than

an older refrigerator. You may notice that it runs more often when

the room is warm, a large amount of food is added to either

compartment, or the doors are opened often.

The refrigerator is noisy

Refrigerator noise has been reduced over the years. Due to this

reduction, you may hear intermittent noises from your new

refrigerator that you did not notice from your old model. Below

are listed some normal sounds with an explanation.

•Buzzing - heard when the water valve opens to fill the ice

maker

•Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to optimize

performance

• Rattling - flow of refrigerant, water line, or from items placed

on top of the refrigerator

•Sizzling/Gurgling - water dripping on the heater during

defrost cycle

•Popping - contraction/expansion of inside walls, especially

during initial cool-down

• Water running - may be heard when ice melts during the

defrost cycle and water runs into the drain pan

• Creaking/Cracking - occurs as ice is being ejected from the

ice maker mold.

The doors will not close completely

Check the following:

• Are food packages blocking the door open?

• Are all bins and shelves pushed back into the correct

positions?

The doors are difficult to open

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

•Are the gaskets dirty or sticky? Clean gaskets with mild

soap and warm water.

• Has the door been opened and closed within the last few

seconds? Wait at least 30 seconds to reopen the doors.

Temperature is too warm

Check the following:

• Are the air vents blocked in either compartment?

• Are the door(s) opened often?

• Has a large amount of food just been added to the

refrigerator or freezer?

• Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding conditions?

There is interior moisture buildup

NOTE: Some moisture is normal.

• Are the air vents blocked in the refrigerator?

• Are the door(s) opened often?

• Is the room humid?

• Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding conditions?

• Was an automatic self-defrost cycle completed?

Items in meat pan/crisper are freezing

The temperature inside the meat pan/crisper may become too

cold, especially when using some additional control panel

features. Adjust the meat pan control to the closed setting.

The ice maker is not producing ice or not enough ice

• Is the ice maker wire shutoff arm or switch (depending on

models) in the OFF position?

• Is the water line shutoff valve to the refrigerator turned on?

•Has the ice maker just been installed? Is the freezer

temperature cold enough to produce ice? Wait 24 hours

after ice maker hookup for ice production to begin. Allow

3 days after ice production begins to completely fill ice

container.

Does the ice maker mold have water in it or has no ice

been produced? Make sure your refrigerator has been

connected to a water supply and the supply shutoff valve is

turned on.

•Has a large amount of ice just been removed? Allow

24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.

• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The

filter may be clogged or installed incorrectly.

• Is an ice cube jammed in the ice maker ejector arm?

For models with an interior ice bin, remove the ice from the

ejector arm with a plastic utensil.

• Is a reverse osmosis water filtration system connected to

your cold water supply? See "Water Supply Requirements"

in the Installation Instructions.

The ice cubes are hollow or small

This is an indication of low water pressure.

Check the following:

• Is the water shutoff valve fully open?

• Are there kinks in the water lines that could restrict water

flow?

• If you are using a water filter, remove the filter and operate the

dispenser. If water flow increases, the filter is clogged or

incorrectly installed.

Check the following:

• Are the plumbing connections new, causing discolored or

off-flavored ice?

• Have the ice cubes been stored too long?

• Does the freezer and ice bin need to be cleaned?

• Has food in the freezer or refrigerator been wrapped

properly?

• Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur)? A filter

may need to be installed to remove the minerals.

• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? Gray or

dark discoloration in ice indicates that the water filtration

system needs additional flushing.

The ice dispenser will not operate properly

Check the following:

• Is the freezer door closed completely?

• Is the ice bin installed correctly?

ice? Change the ice button from "crushed" to "cubed." If

cubed ice dispenses correctly, depress the button for

"crushed" ice and begin dispensing again.

•Has the dispenser lever been held in too long? Ice will stop

dispensing when the arm is held in too long. Wait 3 minutes

for dispenser motor to reset before using again.

The water dispenser will not operate properly

Check the following:

• Is the freezer door closed completely?

• Is the water shutoff valve not turned on, incorrectly installed

or clogged?

Is the water line connected at the source?

Is there a kink in the home water source line?

Has the water system not filled? The water system needs

to be filled the first time it is used.

•Is the refrigerator connected to a cold water line with

water pressure of at least 30 psi (207 kPa)? The water

pressure to the home determines the flow from the dispenser.
