What to do if my Danby DUF138E1WDD is not cold enough?

  Chad VegaAug 13, 2025
  If your Danby Freezer's internal temperature isn't cold enough, make sure the power cord is properly connected and plugged in, and that you are using the correct voltage. Adjust the temperature setting as needed. Ensure the lid is closed tightly and that food is at room temperature before placing it inside. Try to minimize how often and how long you open the lid. Allow space for air to circulate around the unit and avoid placing it near heat sources or direct sunlight.

  Several factors can cause your Danby Freezer to not get cold enough. First, ensure the unit is properly connected to a power source and that the power cord is plugged in. Check that the temperature isn't set too high; adjust to a colder setting if needed. Make sure the lid is closed tightly and not opened too frequently or for extended periods. Ensure that you are not putting hot food inside. Allow enough room for air to circulate around the unit. Verify that you are using the correct voltage and that the freezer isn't near heat sources or direct sunlight.

  If the temperature inside your Danby Freezer is too cold, it's likely that the temperature control is set too cold. Adjust the temperature setting to resolve this.

  These noises (popping, cracking, gurgling) from your Danby Freezer are normal. They occur because parts are expanding and contracting, and the refrigerant is circulating through the system.

Why is my Danby DUF138E1WDD Freezer running constantly?
- D
  Duane PrinceSep 1, 2025
  Your Danby Freezer might be running continuously because the temperature is set too low, the lid isn't closed properly, hot food was placed inside, the lid was opened too often or for too long, it's near a heat source or direct sunlight, or the Quick Freeze function is enabled. Try setting the temperature control to a warmer setting, ensure the lid is securely closed, let food cool to room temperature before putting it in the freezer, minimize how often and how long you open the lid, and keep the unit away from heat sources and direct sunlight. The Quick Freeze function running is normal.

  David GarciaSep 4, 2025
  Your Danby Freezer might run continuously for several reasons. The temperature setting may be too low, so try setting the temperature control to a warmer setting. Ensure the lid is closed securely and that you are not placing hot food inside the freezer. Avoid opening the lid too often or for too long. Make sure the freezer isn't near any heat sources or in direct sunlight. Note that if the Quick Freeze function is enabled, continuous running is normal.

  Popping, cracking, and gurgling noises from your Danby Freezer are typically normal. These sounds occur as parts expand and contract, and as the refrigerant circulates through the system.
