  If the internal temperature of your Danby Refrigerator isn't cold enough, it could be due to several reasons. First, the temperature setting might be too warm; adjust it to a colder setting. Second, the door may not be shut properly or opened too much; make sure it's closed properly. Also, recently adding a lot of warm food can affect the temperature, so allow time for the appliance to cool. Finally, proximity to heat or high ambient conditions can be factors; move the appliance and ensure acceptable ambient conditions.

  Your Danby Refrigerator might be running continuously because the temperature setting is too cold. Adjust it to a warmer setting. Another reason might be that the door isn't shut properly or is opened too often; make sure the door is closed properly. Also, adding a large amount of warm food recently can cause this, so give it time to cool down. Finally, proximity to heat or high ambient temperature/humidity can cause this issue; relocate the appliance and reduce ambient temperature and humidity.
