Cooling
Problem Possible Cause Solutions
Interior moisture
buildup.
Doors are opened often or
for long periods of time.
When the doors are opened often or for long periods
of time, warm, humid air enters the compartment. This
raises the temperature and moisture level within the
compartment. To lessen the effect, reduce the
frequency and duration of door openings.
Doors are not closed
correctly.
See the “Doors will not close correctly or pop open”
section.
Weather is humid.
Humid weather allows additional moisture to enter the
compartments when the doors are opened leading to
condensation or frost. Maintaining a reasonable level
of humidity in the home will help to control the amount
of moisture that can enter the compartments.
Defrost cycle recently
completed.
During the defrost cycle, the temperature of each
compartment may rise slightly and condensation may
form on the back wall. Wait 30 minutes and confirm
that the proper temperature has been restored once
the defrost cycle has completed.
Food is not packaged
correctly.
Food stored uncovered or unwrapped, and damp
containers can lead to moisture accumulation within
each compartment. Wipe all containers dry and store
food in sealed packaging to prevent condensation and
frost.
Food is freezing in
the refrigerator
compartment.
Food with high water content
was placed near an air vent.
Rearrange items with high water content away from
air vents.
Refrigerator temperature
control is set incorrectly.
If the temperature is too cold, adjust the control one
increment at a time and wait for the temperature to
stabilize. Refer to the Control Panel section for more
information.
Refrigerator is installed in a
cold location.
When the refrigerator is operated in temperature
below 41°F (5°C), food can freeze in the refrigerator
compartment. The refrigerator should not be operated
in temperature below 55°F (13°C).
Refrigerator or
Freezer section is
too warm.
Refrigerator was recently
installed.
It may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to
reach the desired temperature.
The air vents are blocked.
Cold air circulates from the
freezer to the fresh food
section and back again
through air vents in the wall
dividing the two sections.
Locate air vents by using your hand to sense airflow
and move all packages that block vents and restrict
airflow. Rearrange items to allow air to flow throughout
the compartment.
