Kenmore 51115 106.5175 Use and Care Guide

To adjust the temperature settings, locate the control panel inside the refrigerator. Use the up and down arrows to set the desired temperature for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
Check if the temperature settings are correct, ensure the vents inside the refrigerator are not blocked, and clean the condenser coils located at the back of the fridge. If the problem persists, consider calling a technician.
It is recommended to clean the condenser coils every 6 to 12 months to ensure efficient operation and prevent overheating.
Water pooling could be due to a blocked defrost drain. Try cleaning the drain with a solution of warm water and baking soda to clear any clogs.
To replace the water filter, locate the filter compartment, twist the old filter counterclockwise to remove it, and insert the new filter by twisting it clockwise until it locks in place.
The ideal temperature setting for the refrigerator is around 37°F (3°C) and for the freezer is 0°F (-18°C).
Ensure the ice maker is turned on, check the water supply line for kinks, and make sure the freezer is cold enough. If the issue persists, inspect the ice maker for any visible damage or call a professional.
Unusual noises could be due to the refrigerator not being level. Check the leveling legs and adjust them as needed. Also, ensure that nothing inside the fridge is vibrating against the walls.
To reset the control panel, unplug the refrigerator for about 5 minutes and then plug it back in. This can help resolve minor electronic glitches.
Regularly clean the interior and exterior surfaces, check and replace the water filter as needed, clean the condenser coils, and ensure the door seals are free from debris to maintain efficiency.
