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.

Solution
• Properly plug in the power
cord.
• Set the temperature lower.
• Keep the refrigerator away
from direct sunlight or a heat
source.
• Make sure there is a gap of
at least 2.5 inches (5 cm)
between the refrigerator
back and sides and any
nearby walls or cabinets.
• 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.
