Refrigerator has a persistent rotten or fishy smell from the back or underneath, not inside the compartments.

Safety: Unplug the refrigerator before moving or tilting it.

• 1. Pull unit away from wall: Carefully slide the refrigerator out to access the floor and rear.
• 2. Inspect floor and underside: Look for spilled food, liquids, or other contaminants. Clean thoroughly with hot soapy water.
• 3. Clean drain pan: Remove the drain pan if possible and wash it with hot water and detergent. Rinse and dry before reinstalling.
• 4. Check for pests: Remove any dead insects or rodents and disinfect the area.
• 5. Improve ventilation: Ensure adequate airflow around the unit to help keep the area dry and odor-free.
