Why is my Kenmore 111 too warm?
- DDavid PerezJul 28, 2025
If your Kenmore Refrigerator or Freezer is too warm, first ensure the temperature control is correctly set and allow time for stabilization after adjustments. Reduce how often and how long you open the doors, and let hot food cool before refrigerating it. Avoid operating the refrigerator in temperatures above 110°F. Also, wait 30 minutes after a defrost cycle completes to confirm proper temperature. Check if doors are not closed correctly (but see the Doors will not close correctly or pop open section in Parts & Features Troubleshooting). If the refrigerator was recently installed, it may take up to 24 hours to reach the desired temperature.
