F7E1 at a glance

  • Seeing F7E1 on the display, with the letter F flashing? Product Help has a reset for that.
  • The reset is written for bottom-freezer units.
  • No cause is stated for F7E1, only the reset.

Start here

  1. Take away electricity first: flip the breaker or unplug the cord, then wait sixty seconds.
  2. Once sixty seconds are over, reapply power the same way you removed it.
  3. Examine the cooling setting and keep it active.
  4. Stay by the refrigerator for a minute and note whether F7E1 shows up again.

Do not keep repeating the reset if F7E1 stays; schedule a technician visit instead.
