Possible Causes

Dirty condenser coils, Poor door sealing, Very low temperature settings, Frequent door openings, Internal fan or airflow issues

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug before cleaning the rear components.

Steps:

  • Clean condenser: Vacuum or brush dust from the condenser coils at the back or underneath.
  • Check door seals: Inspect and clean gaskets; replace if leaking.
  • Adjust settings: Set fridge to about +4°C and freezer to about -18°C; colder settings increase energy use.
  • Organise storage: Avoid blocking vents and keep the fridge reasonably full but not overpacked.
  • Check fans: Ensure internal and condenser fans are operating correctly.
