Possible causes
• Power cord is not plugged in
properly.
• Temperature control is not set
correctly.
• Refrigerator is located near a
heat source or direct sunlight.
• Not enough clearance between
refrigerator and nearby walls or
cabinets.
• The refrigerator is overloaded.
Food is blocking the
refrigerator vents.
• Temperature control is not set
correctly.
• Refrigerator has heat-proof
piping in the interior wall.
Solution
• Properly plug in the power cord.
• Set the temperature lower.
• Keep the refrigerator away from
direct sunlight or a heat source.
• We recommend that the gap
between the refrigerator and
nearby walls (or cabinets) is more
than 2" (50 mm).
• Do not overload the refrigerator. Do
not allow food to block vents.
• Set the temperature higher.
• To prevent condensation from
forming, the refrigerator has heat-
proof piping in the front corners.
If the ambient temperature rises,
this equipment may not work
effectively. This is not a system
failure.
