This is often a problem with the cooling of the condenser/compressor coils.
Check that the front kick plate and rear cover slots are clean.
Check that the condenser/compressor fan is running and that it's fan blades are clean.
Clean the condenser coils.
Looks like it uses a jelly roll condenser these are a pain to clean.
If possible blow them clean. My fridge uses the same type. I am lucky that my fridge is directly opposite an outside door. So I remove the kick plate and rear cover and then roll the unit to the open door and blow itout with a compressor. Most of the dust then goes outside.
I have been to;ld that a leaf blower also does a good job. |
