- Door may have been left ajar.
6. There is strange odor in my refrigerator, even though it is brand-new.
- When the freezer compartment is new, there is a plastic odor and other odors, because most of the
internal components are made from plastic and other materials.
7. When I open my freezer compartment door, my food has an odor.
- There may be an odor if your food is not stored in airtight containers. Storing wet food in a plastic bag
may cause an odor from the plastic bag.
8. My freezer compartment door is hard to open.
- When the freezer door is opened, warm air rushes inside. When you close the door, all of the warm air
becomes cold and causes a vacuum. This will make the door harder to open. Wait about 30 seconds
after closing the door to avoid this issue.
