Solutions
Locate air vents by
using your hand to
senseairflow and move
all packages that
blockvents and restrict
airflow. (See air
flowdiagram below.)
Opening the door warms the refrigerator,
requiring the compressor to run longer in
order to cool the refrigerator back down. In
order to conserve energy, try to get everything
you need out of the refrigerator at once, keep
food organized so it is easy to find, and close
the door as soon as the food is removed.
If the temperature is too warm, change the
setting one increment at a time. Refer to the
Setting the Controls section. Wait 24 hours
for temperatures to stabilize or even out.
Adding food warms the refrigerator. It can
take a few hours for the refrigerator to return
to normal temperature.
Wrap food tightly and wipe off damp
containers prior to storing in the refrigerator
to avoid moisture accumulation. If necessary,
repackage food according to the guidelines in
the Food Storage Guide section.
See "Doors will not close completely" in the
Troubleshooting section.
In humid weather, air carries moisture
into the refrigerator when the doors are
opened. Increased humidity in the freezer or
refrigerator compartments can lead to frost or
condensation.
back wall after the refrigerator automatically
defrosts.
Clean the gaskets and the surfaces that they
touch. Rub a thin coat of appliance polish or
kitchen wax on the gaskets after cleaning.
When you open the door, warmer air entersthe
refrigerator. As the warm air cools, it cancreate a
vacuum. If the door is hard to open,wait one
minute to allow the air pressure toequalize, then
see if it opens more easily.
Press the Temperature Adjust button to set
the refrigerator compartment to a warmer
temperature.
When room temperature is below 41°F (5°C),
food can freeze. The refrigerator should not
be operated in temperatures below 55°F
(13°C).
Place food with a high water content toward
the front of the refrigerator.
