GENERAL INFORMATION Door Adjustment All model doors are aligned at the factory before shipment. Occasional readjustment may be necessary, especially if an Overlay Panel is installed. The following procedure will correct for up to 1/4" alignment. Safety Precautions Do not attempt to service or repair the unit until you have read the entire procedure. Safety items throughout this manual are labeled with Danger, Warning or Caution. IMPORTANT The door should never be flush with the top of the cabinet.
Be careful not to lose door closer inserts. 5. After adjustment is complete, remove the door closers from the bottom hinge, clean thoroughly and apply petroleum jelly to the mating surfaces of the closers. Be sure that bosses on closers align with holes in hinge and hinge plate. Mount door and install top hinge pivot pin. Note: The hinge plate on some models do not have the holes slotted for adjustment. New hinge plates are available from Electrolux Parts. 3.

Compressor/Electrical Specifications: OVERLOAD PROTECTOR C S R START RELAY RELAY COVER Compressor Pins: To measure start winding resistance, measure across the C-S pins. To measure run winding resistance, measure across the C-R pins. These pins should never measure any resistance to ground. This would indicate a shorted compressor. Specifications: Start Winding Resistance: 28 OHMS. Run Winding Resistance: 8 OHMS.
REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS Normal Vapor/Compression Cycle Refrigeration • Refrigerant is pumped from the compressor to the condenser as a high pressure, high temperature vapor. • As the refrigerant cools in the high pressure condenser, the vapor condenses to liquid. During this phase change, a great amount of heat is rejected with the help of the condenser fan. • The liquid then flows to the dryer where it is strained and filtered.
Troubleshooting Problem DANGER DO NOT service the unit until the main electrical power has been disconnected. Cause Correction 1. Not refrigerating (compressor and fan are operating). Cause a. Little or no frost pattern on evaporator. a. Check for sealed system leak or restriction. Remedy 2. Not refrigerating (compressor not operating - fan operating). Cause a. Relay defective. a. Replace relay. b. Overload defective (open). b. Replace overload. c. Compressor defective. c. Replace compressor.
Problem 7. Excessive frost build-up. Cause 8. Noisy. Cause 9. Fresh food temperature too cold. Cause Cause Correction a. Door gasket not sealing properly. a. Adjust door hinges or replace door gasket. b. Door out of alignment. b. Align fill door hinges. c. Water soaked cabinet insulation. c. Replace foamed cabinet assembly (factoryrepair only). d. Light stays on when door is closed. d. Repair light bracket. a. Copper refrigeration tube touching cabinet. Remedy a. Carefully adjust tubing. b.
