Doors not closed correctly.
Temperature control is not set
correctly.
Defrost cycle has recently
completed.
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 11OF.
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.
