How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No electrical hazard, but wipe up moisture to prevent slips.
- Improve ventilation: Ensure adequate airflow around the freezer and avoid placing it next to heat sources.
- Check door seal: Inspect and clean the gasket to ensure a tight seal.
- Reduce door openings: Minimize how often and how long the door is open, especially in humid weather.
- Check mullion heater: On models with a warm strip around the door frame, verify that it is slightly warm during operation. If cold and condensation is heavy, the heater circuit may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
