How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal electrical work is required for basic checks.
Steps:
- 1. Check door seals: Ensure gaskets are clean and sealing properly. Replace if damaged.
- 2. Reduce humidity: Use kitchen ventilation when cooking and avoid placing the fridge near open windows or humid areas.
- 3. Door heater (if equipped): Some models have a small heater around the door frame. If condensation is severe only around the frame, the heater circuit may have failed and should be checked by a technician.
- 4. Limit door openings: Keep doors closed as much as possible to reduce moist air ingress.
