• Is the power to the refrigerator on?
• Is the set temperature too high?
• Is the refrigerator exposed to direct sunlight or positioned near a heating
appliance?
• Have suffi cient clearances been provided around the refrigerator?
• Have the food items been packed too tightly together or is the room
temperature high?
• Have the doors been opened and closed frequently?
Are the doors completely shut?
• When warm food is put inside the refrigerator, the temperature will rise
temporarily.
• During the cold season or when the room temperature is low, it may feel as if
the refrigerator is not chilling.
• If room temperature is low, the freezer may not cool properly.
• When warm food is put inside the refrigerator, the temperature will rise
temporarily.
• Is the set temperature for the fridge too low?
• Has the food been placed at the back of the fridge?
The area near the back wall is where the temperatures are coldest so avoid
placing food which may freeze easily here.
• Condensation may form when the door has been opened and closed frequently
or when it has not been shut completely, or when the room humidity is high.
Wipe off the condensation using a dry cloth.
• Condensation may form when the temperature is high, when the door has
been open for an extended period, when the door is repeatedly opened and
closed, and in similar situations. Furthermore, as the back surface of the
internal compartment is the condenser, frost may form on it, melt, and become
condensation, but this is not a malfunction.
• The difference in air pressure between the inside and outside of the freezer
may sometimes make it hard to open the freezer door. Wait a few moments,
and then try opening the door.
• Were any food items with strong odours sealed before they were placed in the
fridge?
Place the items inside a sealed container and store them.
• Odours may stick to the surfaces inside the refrigerator. Wipe the surfaces
using a soft cloth which has been dipped in lukewarm water.
