Interior Moisture
Buildup
Doors are opened often or for
long periods of time.
When the doors are frequently opened and left open for
long periods of time, warm, humid air enters. This raises the
temperature and moisture level and creates buildup.
Reduce the frequency and duration of door openings to
solve interior moisture buildup.
Doors not closed correctly.
See the
Doors are Not Closing Correctly
table in the
Troubleshooting
section (page 39).
Weather is humid.
Humid weather allows additional moisture to enter the
refrigerator and freezer when the doors are opened. This
moisture creates condensation or frost.
Maintain a reasonable level of humidity in the home to help
control the amount of moisture that will enter the unit.
Defrost cycle was recently
completed.
During the defrost cycle, the temperature of each
compartment may raise slightly and condensation may form
on the back wall.
Wait 30 minutes and confirm that the proper temperature
has been restored once the defrost cycle has completed.
Food is not packaged
correctly.
Food stored uncovered and unwrapped, and food in damp
containers, can lead to moisture accumulation within each
compartment.
Wipe all containers dry. Store food in sealed packaging to
prevent condensation and frost.
