To adjust the temperature settings, locate the thermostat control inside the refrigerator compartment. Turn the dial clockwise to lower the temperature and counterclockwise to increase it.
First, check if the refrigerator is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Ensure that the thermostat is set to the correct temperature. If the issue persists, clean the condenser coils and check the door seals for any gaps.
Unplug the refrigerator and locate the condenser coils, usually at the back or bottom. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to gently remove dust and debris.
Ice buildup can occur if the door is not sealing properly or if the defrost cycle is not functioning. Check the door seal for damage and ensure it closes tightly. If the problem persists, it may require service to inspect the defrost system.
Manual defrost models should be defrosted when frost build-up reaches about 1/4 inch. Automatic defrost models handle this process on their own, but regular checks are advised to ensure proper operation.
Store raw meats on the lower shelves to prevent drips from contaminating other foods. Keep dairy products and eggs in the main compartment rather than the door for optimal temperature. Use clear containers to store leftovers and label them with dates.
Unplug the refrigerator and remove the bulb cover inside the compartment. Unscrew the old bulb and replace it with a new one of the same type and wattage. Reattach the cover and plug the refrigerator back in.
Unusual noises may be due to the refrigerator not being level. Ensure all four corners are on the floor and adjust the leveling legs as needed. Also, check for items inside the refrigerator that may be vibrating.
Regularly clean the door gasket with warm, soapy water to remove any debris. Check for gaps by closing the door on a piece of paper; if it slips out easily, the gasket may need replacing.
It is not recommended to store non-food items in the refrigerator, as they may release chemicals or odors that can contaminate food. Always keep the refrigerator for food and beverage storage only.
