Check the signs: normal display, warm compartments, compressor quiet or nearly so after several hours.
Find the exit steps in the owner's manual for your model number, as they vary.
After exiting, give the refrigerator several hours before checking temperatures.
Keep the model number at hand if you need help with the steps.
