Let's find out more.
If a significant amount of cold air is lost from inside the refrigerator, the compressor may run continuously to reach the set temperature.
Also, if the cooling (temperature setting) is set to Medium or Strong, the compressor may run continuously for longer periods.
Try this.
Was the refrigerator recently moved, repaired, or inspected?
➔ Allow the refrigerator to run for approximately 24 hours for the internal temperature to stabilize.
Moving, repairing, or inspecting the refrigerator can cause a rise in internal temperature due to cold air loss.
The compressor may run continuously for about a day to restore the correct temperature. Once the set temperature is reached, the compressor will cycle on and off as normal.
The compressor run time will also decrease once the set temperature is reached.
Is the cooling set to Medium or Strong?
➔ Lower the temperature setting by one level.
If the cooling is set to Medium or Strong, the compressor may run continuously for an extended period. Once the temperature stabilizes, the compressor will cycle on and off normally.
Were the refrigerator or freezer doors left open for an extended period?
➔ Check that the doors are closed properly.
If the refrigerator or freezer doors are left open for a long time, the compressor will run continuously to compensate for the loss of cold air.
A weak door seal can also cause continuous cold air loss and make the compressor run constantly. Ensure the doors are closing and sealing properly.
