Food Freezing in Refrigerator

Items in fresh food compartment are freezing or too cold

Fix Steps:
1
Adjust temperature control to a warmer setting (higher number = colder)
2
Recommended setting: Middle position (usually 3-5 on dial)
3
Move temperature-sensitive items away from back wall and vents
4
Check if items are blocking air vents - maintain clearance
5
Ensure temperature sensor is not blocked by food containers
6
Verify door gasket seals properly - no air leaks
7
Check if ambient temperature is too low (below 10°C)
8
Don't place hot food directly in refrigerator
9
Allow space for air circulation around stored items
10
Wait 12-24 hours after adjustment before checking results
Preventive Tip

Keep food away from vents. Use middle temperature settings. Avoid blocking air circulation pathways.

Related FAQs

Set the fresh food section to 3-5°C (37-41°F). The middle setting on the dial usually achieves this. Use a refrigerator thermometer to verify - they're inexpensive and accurate.

The back wall is the coldest part because it's closest to the cooling element. Keep temperature-sensitive items (lettuce, eggs, milk) in the middle or front. Leave 2-3 inches between food and the back wall.

No, wait 12-24 hours after adjusting before checking results. The refrigerator needs time to stabilize at the new temperature. Making frequent adjustments can make the problem worse.
