  Several factors can cause cooling issues in your Kenmore Refrigerator. First, ensure the power cord is firmly plugged into a working outlet with the correct voltage. If the refrigerator is in demo mode, it disables cooling to save energy; refer to the Setting the Controls section to disable it. Also, the refrigerator may be in the defrost cycle, which causes a slight temperature increase; wait 30 minutes after the cycle. If recently installed or relocated, it can take up to 24 hours to reach the desired temperature, and if relocated, it needs to stand upright for 24 hours before plugging it in.

Why does my Kenmore 795.5185 cooling system run so much?

  Several factors can cause your Kenmore Refrigerator's cooling system to run excessively. Modern refrigerators often run longer due to more efficient technology. If the refrigerator was recently plugged in, allow up to 24 hours to cool completely. Frequent door openings or adding large amounts of food can also cause this. Ensure doors are fully closed and clean the condenser cover and vents with a vacuum cleaner. A hot installation location will also cause the compressor to run longer.

  If your Kenmore Refrigerator or Freezer is too warm, several factors could be the cause. If recently installed, allow up to 24 hours to reach the desired temperature. Ensure air vents are not blocked by rearranging items. Reduce the frequency and duration of door openings. The refrigerator should not be operated in temperatures above 110ºF (43ºC). Allow hot food to cool before placing it inside. Also, ensure the temperature control is correctly set, adjusting it one increment at a time. If the defrost cycle has recently completed, wait 30 minutes for the temperature to stabilize.

  To minimize interior moisture buildup in your Kenmore Refrigerator, reduce how often and how long you open the doors. Ensure the doors are closing correctly. Maintaining a reasonable level of humidity in your home can also help. After a defrost cycle, wait 30 minutes for the temperature to stabilize. Ensure food is correctly packaged by wiping containers dry and storing food in sealed packaging.
