The divider between the two compartments
is warm

exterior moisture control.
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
"Ensuring Proper Air Circulation" 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.
•
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions?
Refer to the "Setting the Control(s)" 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 to
"Ensuring Proper Air Circulation" for the location of air vents.
is the door 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
"Refrigerator
Features" section. Wipe off damp food
containers before placing in the refrigerator.
•
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions?
Refer to the "Setting the Control(s)" section.
•
Was a self-defrost
cycle completed?
It is normal for droplets to form on the back wall after the
refrigerator self-defrosts.
