How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator and mop up any standing water to prevent slipping.
Inspect rear area:
- Pull the fridge away from the wall.
- Locate the evaporator tray above the compressor. Check for cracks or overflow.
- Ensure the defrost drain tube is correctly inserted into the tray.
Check door seals and condensation:
- Inspect door gaskets for gaps that could cause excessive condensation.
- Clean and reshape or replace gaskets as needed.
If ice maker or water line present:
- Inspect the water inlet hose, valve, and connections for drips.
- Tighten or replace any leaking fittings. Replace damaged hoses with Finlux-compatible water lines.
