To adjust the temperature settings, locate the thermostat dial inside the refrigerator. Turn the dial clockwise for a colder setting and counterclockwise for a warmer setting. Allow the refrigerator several hours to adjust to the new temperature.
Check if the refrigerator is plugged in and the thermostat is set correctly. Ensure that the door seals are clean and making full contact. If the problem persists, consider defrosting the unit or checking the condenser coils for dust buildup.
The Midea WHS-168WES1 is a manual defrost refrigerator. It is recommended to defrost it when the frost buildup reaches about 1/4 inch to ensure optimal performance.
Unusual noises can be due to the refrigerator being unlevel, items inside vibrating against each other, or the compressor working harder to maintain temperature. Ensure the refrigerator is level and items are not touching the interior walls.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. Use a mixture of warm water and mild detergent to wipe down the interior and exterior surfaces. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and dry thoroughly with a towel. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Yes, but ensure the garage temperature stays within the refrigerator's operating range, typically between 50°F and 85°F. Extreme temperatures may affect the refrigerator's performance.
Keep the refrigerator in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Ensure the door seals are tight and minimize door openings. Regularly clean the condenser coils and defrost the unit as needed.
Water pooling can occur due to a blocked defrost drain. Clean the drain using a mixture of warm water and baking soda. Ensure the drain hole is clear and not obstructed by debris.
It is not recommended to use extension cords with refrigerators due to the risk of electrical overload. Plug the refrigerator directly into a grounded wall outlet.
Unplug the refrigerator and locate the light cover inside. Remove the cover and unscrew the old bulb. Replace it with a new bulb of the same type and wattage, then reinstall the cover.
