Precautionary measures

• Verify the refrigerator is firmly plugged into a grounded 120V outlet and the outlet has power • Ensure both refrigerator and freezer doors close completely and seal properly without gaps • Check that door seals are clean and free from debris preventing full closure • Confirm the appliance is level using a spirit level—adjust leveling feet if necessary • Verify temperature settings are configured correctly in the control panel menu • Clear any visible ice or frost buildup around interior vents and damper areas • Ensure air vents inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments are not blocked by food items • Allow 24 hours of stable operation after any recent power interruption for system recalibration • Unplug the refrigerator from the wall outlet or turn off the circuit breaker for 60 seconds, then restore power to attempt a complete system reset • Wait 5-10 minutes for the control panel to fully reinitialize and check if the error clears • If the fault code 24 persists after these checks, contact a professional appliance repair technician who can test the sensors and control board components
