Possible Cause
Today's refrigerators have increased
storage capacity and maintain more
even temperatures.
Refrigerator operates at higher pressures
during the start of the ON cycle.
Floor is uneven or weak.
Refrigerator rocks on the floor when it is
moved slightly.
Items placed on the top of the refrigerator
are vibrating.
Dishes are vibrating on the shelves in
the refrigerator.
Refrigerator is touching wall or cabinets.
The weather is hot and humid which
increases the rate of frost buildup
and internal sweating.
Door is slightly open.
Door is opened too often or too long.
Weather is humid.
Door is slightly open,causing cold air
from the inside the refrigerator to meet
warm air from the outside.
Moisture may be formed in high
temperature and high humidity since
heater turns off if not opening the
doors for a long time.
Solution

the refrigerator continues to run.

adequately support refrigerator.
Remove items.
