maker
Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to optimize
performance
Hissing/Rattling - ow of refrigerant, movement of water
lines, 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

To troubleshoot the Electronic Temperature Control panel on the Whirlpool WRF535SWHZ refrigerator, follow these steps: 1. Check the power: Make sure the refrigerator is plugged in correctly and turned on. If the control panel is completely off, check the power supply to ensure it is functioning properly. 2. Check the temperature settings: Verify that the temperature settings on the control panel are set correctly. The recommended settings for normal household refrigerator use are pre-set at the factory. If needed, adjust the temperature settings using the control panel. 3. Check for blockages: Ensure that the air vents in the refrigerator and freezer compartments are not blocked. Blocked vents can affect temperature distribution and prevent proper cooling. Clear any obstructions that may be blocking the vents. 4. Allow time for cooling: After adjusting the temperature settings or making any changes, wait at least 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool completely before adding food. Adding food before the refrigerator has cooled completely may affect its performance. 5. Check for temperature issues: If the refrigerator compartment is not cooling properly while the freezer compartment is working fine, it could indicate a problem with the cooling system. In this case, it is recommended to contact customer service for further assistance.

The manual does not mention a "cover" on each mount that allows the shelf to snap into place. Therefore, it appears that the mounts are fixed and the shelf should fit correctly without any additional covers.

To resolve the problem of frost and ice buildup in the freezer section of the Whirlpool WRF535SWHZ refrigerator, you can follow these steps: 1. Check the door seal: Make sure the freezer door is closing properly and the door seal is clean and intact. A faulty door seal can allow warm air to enter the freezer, leading to frost and ice buildup. 2. Check the temperature settings: Ensure that the freezer temperature is set to the recommended level. In this case, the current setting of 4 is appropriate. Adjusting the temperature too low can cause excessive frost and ice formation. 3. Avoid overloading the freezer: Do not overload the freezer with too much food. Overpacking the freezer can restrict airflow and lead to frost buildup. 4. Allow space for airflow: Ensure that there is enough space around the freezer for proper airflow. Avoid blocking the vents inside the freezer and maintain proper ventilation around the appliance. 5. Regularly defrost the freezer: If frost and ice buildup occur frequently, it may be necessary to manually defrost the freezer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on how to defrost the freezer properly.

Emma of manua.lsOctober 24, 2023

The manual for the Whirlpool WRF535SWHZ refrigerator provides the recommended temperature range for optimal performance and cooling. The preferred temperature range for the refrigerator and freezer is mentioned as 60°F to 90°F (15°C to 32°C). However, the manual does not specify the exact temperature settings for the refrigerator and freezer compartments. To adjust the temperature settings, follow these steps: 1. Press the refrigerator or freezer temperature control touch pad. 2. Use the (+) or (-) touch pads to adjust the temperature set point. 3. Wait for 24 hours between adjustments for the temperature to stabilize. It is important to avoid adjusting the temperature controls more than one setting at a time, except when initially turning on the refrigerator. This will allow the temperature to stabilize properly.
