automatic exterior moisture control. If still concerned,
call for service.
Temperature is too warm
Are the air vents blocked in either compartment?
This prevents the movement of cold air from the
freezer to the refrigerator.
Remove any objects from in front of the air vents. Refer
to the "Ensuring Proper Air Circulation" section for the
location of air vents.
Are the door(s) opened often?
Be aware that the refrigerator will warm when this
occurs. In order to keep the refrigerator cool, try to get
everything you need out of the refrigerator at once, keep
food organized so it is easy to find, and close the door
as soon as the food is removed.
Has a large amount of food just been added to the
refrigerator or freezer?
Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator. It
can take several hours for the refrigerator to return to the
normal temperature.
Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding
conditions?
Refer to the "Setting the Controls" section.
There is interior moisture build-up
Are the air vents blocked in the refrigerator?
Remove any objects from in front of the air vents. Refer

Are the door(s) opened often?
To avoid humidity build-up, try to get everything you
need out of the refrigerator at once, keep food organized
so it is easy to find, and close the door as soon as the
food is removed. (When the door is opened, humidity
from the room air enters the refrigerator. The more often
the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up,
especially when the room itself is very humid.)
Is the room humid?
It is normal for moisture to build up inside the refrigerator
when the room air is humid.
Is the food packaged correctly?
Check that all food is securely wrapped. If necessary,
repackage food according to the guidelines in the "Food
Storage Guide" section. Wipe off damp food containers
before placing in the refrigerator.
Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding
conditions?
Refer to the "Setting the Controls" section.
Was a self-defrost cycle completed?
