Temperature is too high in the fridge
Issue
- The fridge is too warm
- The temperature is too high in the fridge
- The fridge is not cooling
Solution
The factory default settings for the refrigerator is “3°C” and “-18°C” for the freezer.
- If you want to change the temperature, remember to make only small adjustments and wait 24 hours to see if it’s
correct.
Refrigerator is too warm
- Check the temp setting
- Ensure food is allowed to cool before placing inside the refrigerator
- Ensure that contents are not obstructing the Air distributor ducts
- Ensure the door is not held open or is being opened too frequently
Check whether the appliance is cooling correctly.
- Measure the temperature with a thermometer in a glass of water placed inside the fridge. If the temperature is between +3 to +5°C, the fridge is working correctly.
- The core temperature of foodstuffs is more important than the internal air temperature of the fridge, as air temperature will fluctuate during each refrigeration cycle (between the refrigeration compressor starting and stopping).
- Please note that cheaper thermometers may show variations of ±1–2°C or more.
- Adjust the temperature by turning the temperature regulator or via the control panel.
