Checking the Power Supply
How to Check the Power Supply for the Whirlpool Undercounter Refrigerator, Wine Cooler or Beverage Center
Make sure the power cord is plugged into a 3-prong outlet. A 115-volt, 60-Hz, AC only 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required.
- It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your refrigerator is provided.
- Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch.
- Do not use an extension cord.
- Check the outlet. If you are unsure if it's working, plug in a household lamp or other small appliance to verify that it is.
Check Circuit Breaker or Household Fuse:
- Check to see if a household circuit breaker or Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) outlet has tripped. If so, reset the circuit breaker or Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt.
- If the refrigerator is on a fuse box, check to see if a fuse has blown and replace it, if necessary. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
