Possible Causes Solutions
It may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to
reach the desired temperature.
Rearrange items to allow air to flow throughout the
compartment. Refer to the Airflow diagram in the
Using Your Refrigerator section.
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 110F.
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.

See the Doors will not close correctly section in the
Troubleshooting section.
Humid weather allows additional moisture to enter
the compartments when the doors are opened
leading to condensation or frost. Maintaining a
reasonable level of humidity in the home will help
to control the amount of moisture that can enter the
compartments.
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 that the proper temperature has been
restored once the defrost cycle has completed.
Food stored uncovered or unwrapped, and damp
containers can lead to moisture accumulation within
each compartment. Wipe all containers dry and store
food in sealed packaging to prevent condensation
and frost.
