Precautionary measures
• Verify the refrigerator is properly plugged into a working 120V outlet and check that the outlet has power
• Ensure both the refrigerator and freezer doors are fully closed and sealing properly
• Check that the temperature control settings are set to appropriate levels (typically 37°F for fridge, 0°F for freezer)
• Allow 4-6 hours for the appliance to stabilize after a power outage or electrical interruption
• Inspect all visible air vents and cooling passages to ensure they are not blocked by food items or debris
• Confirm the refrigerator is sitting level and stable on the floor
• Perform a complete reset by unplugging the appliance or turning off the dedicated circuit breaker for 60 seconds, then restore power
• Monitor the appliance for 2-3 hours to see if the error code clears
• If the F1 error code persists after these steps, contact a professional third-party appliance repair technician for diagnosis and repair of the temperature sensor or control board components
