The fridge is freezing water and not reducing temp

1 comments:

The ARB fridge freezer may be freezing water instead of just reducing the temperature due to the target cabinet temperature being set too low. If the target temperature is near or below freezing (0°C or 32°F), water inside the fridge freezer will freeze. To prevent this, check and adjust the target cabinet temperature by turning the fridge freezer on, pressing the button to display the current target temperature, and increasing it as needed. Additionally, note that the temperature at the center of the cabinet may differ from other areas, which could contribute to localized freezing.
