No back cover behind the refrigerator at the bottom

Cause and Symptoms

Refrigerators featuring storage capacity below 290L will have the compressor cooled down by free convection cooling so, no need for a back cover attached at the very bottom in order to enhance efficiency.

Try this

Cover is not necessary for normal operation.

Refrigerators with capacity less than 290L do not have a cover. This is not a defect.
Refrigerators boasting storage capacity greater than 300L feature a fan motor to cool down compressor and have a cover on the back preventing dust from creeping in.
