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.
The doors are opened often.
The control is not set correctly
for the
surrounding
conditions.
A large amount of food has just been added
to the refrigerator
or freezer.
The food is not packaged
correctly.
Locate air vents by using your hand to
sense airflow
and move all packages
that
block vents and restrict airflow.
(See airflow
diagram
below.)
Temperature
is too
warm
or there
is
interior
moisture
buildup.
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 (see the
Adjusting
Control Settings
section). 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.
The doors are not closing completely.
See "Doors will not close completely"
in the
Troubleshooting
section.
The weather is humid.
An automatic
defrost cycle was completed.
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.
It is normal for droplets to form on the interior
back wall after the refrigerator
automatically
defrosts.
