Solution
3.2.1.1
It is normal for some wet air to collect inside the
enclosed crisper. To reduce the accumulation
of moisture, lower the humidity setting and/or
raise the fresh food compartment temperature.
3.3.1.1
When placing foods in the fridge first pat them
with a dry cloth to remove excess moisture.
3.3.2.1
Check the door gaskets and reduce door
openings. Possibly raise fresh food temperature.
4.1.1.1
A small amount of dew or water moisture is
normal. It is best to wipe it down with a dry
cloth to improve performance.
4.1.1.2
A slight increase in the compartment
temperatures can reduce this moisture
formation.
4.1.1.3
Check door gasket for proper seal and clean.
