Possible Causes
Frost blocking air channels, Food items blocking vents, Collapsed or misaligned air duct, Ice buildup around fan shroud
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the freezer before removing panels or moving food.
- Rearrange contents: Ensure food packages are not blocking the air vents on the rear or sides of the interior.
- Check for frost: Inspect the rear panel for heavy frost. If present, fully defrost the freezer.
- Inspect ducts: Remove the inner rear panel and check the air channels and fan shroud for ice or obstructions. Clear any blockages.
- Reassemble correctly: Ensure the rear panel and ducts are reinstalled properly so that air is directed through the intended channels.
Proper airflow is essential for even cooling; if airflow remains weak with no visible obstructions, the fan or duct design may need professional evaluation.
