A: Cleaning and reshaping the door seal can help restore its function: * Remove any debris blocking the seal. * You may restore the seal by carefully heating and then cooling it to reshape. Q: Why is the housing or exterior of the refrigerator hot?

Q: Why is there condensation on the outside of the refrigerator? A: Condensation on the exterior and door seals is normal, especially in humid environments. Q: What should I do if the refrigerator runs for too long? A: Prolonged running often relates to door seal and leveling issues: * Check and clean the door seal to ensure it closes tightly. * Make sure the refrigerator is level to allow proper sealing. * Q: Why is my freezer building up frost? A: Frost buildup is not normal for this no-frost model, so check these potential causes: * Inspect the door seal for cracks or dirt allowing moisture in. * Clean the condenser coils to improve heat dissipation. * If frost persists, contact Element support to check the defrost system.
