Care and maintenance
31
Refrigerator was recently installed.
Air vents are blocked.
Doors are opened often or for long
periods of time.
Unit is installed in a hot location.
A large amount of food or hot food
was added to either compartment.
Doors not closed correctly.
Temperature control is not set
correctly.
Defrost cycle has recently
completed.
It may take up to 24 hours for each
compartment to reach the desired
temperature.
Rearrange items to allow air to flow
throughout the compartment. Refer to the
Airflow diagram in the Using Your
Refrigerator section.
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.
The refrigerator should not be operated in
temperatures above 110°F.
Adding food warms the compartment
requiring the cooling system to run.
Allowing hot food to cool to room
temperature before putting it in the
refrigerator will reduce this effect.
See the Doors will not close correctly or
pop open section in Parts & Features
Troubleshooting.
If the temperature is too warm, adjust the
control one increment at a time and wait
for the temperature to stabilize. Refer to
the Setting the Controls section for more
information.
During the defrost cycle, the temperature
of each compartment may raise slightly
and condensation may form on the back
wall. Wait 30 minutes and confirm the
proper temperature has been restored
once the defrost cycle has completed.
Refrigerator or
Freezer section is
too warm.
