Why does my Pelgrim PKS5178 cooling system run continuously?
- L
  Leslie ThompsonAug 18, 2025
  Your Pelgrim Refrigerator's cooling system might be running continuously due to several reasons: * The ambient temperature may be too high. * The door may have been opened too frequently or left open too long. * The door may not be closing correctly due to impurities on the seal, misalignment, or damage. * Too much fresh food may have been inserted at once. * The sensor in the refrigerator might be blocked by fresh food (make sure the air can circulate around the sensor, applicable to some models only). * There may be insufficient cooling of the compressor and condenser unit (check for sufficient air circulation behind the appliance and clean the condenser unit).

  If water is dripping or leaking from your Pelgrim Refrigerator, it could be due to a clogged water discharge opening or water dripping past the water gutter. Try cleaning the blocked opening using a plastic straw. Also, if a thick layer of ice builds up, defrost the appliance manually.

Why is the door of my Pelgrim PKS5178 Refrigerator difficult to open?
- H
  Heather ObrienAug 27, 2025
  If you find it difficult to open the door of your Pelgrim Refrigerator immediately after closing it, this is normal. When the door opens, cool air escapes and is replaced by warm air. As this air cools, it creates negative pressure, making the door harder to open. This condition normalizes after a few minutes, and the door can then be opened easily.

Why does my Pelgrim Refrigerator make a noise?
- D
  Daniel CrossAug 30, 2025
  Your Pelgrim Refrigerator makes noise because it is cooled by a refrigeration system with a compressor (and sometimes a fan). When first connected, the noise from the compressor or flowing refrigerant may be louder, which is normal and temporary. The appliance may also be temporarily noisier after the door has been opened too long or too frequently, a large quantity of fresh food has been put in, or the intensive cooling function has been activated.

What is the cause of condensate on the shelf above the drawers in my Pelgrim PKS5178 Refrigerator?
- J
  Joshua MezaSep 1, 2025
  Condensation on the shelf above the drawers in your Pelgrim Refrigerator is a transient phenomenon that can occur during periods of high environmental temperature and humidity. It subsides when the temperature and humidity normalize. To manage this, clean the drawers more frequently, wipe the droplets occasionally, and put food in bags or packaging with a good seal.

Why does my Pelgrim PKS5178 cooling system run constantly?
- E
  Elizabeth PetersonSep 6, 2025
  If the cooling system in your Pelgrim Refrigerator runs continuously for a long time, it could be due to several reasons. The ambient temperature might be too high, or the door may have been opened too frequently or for too long. Check if the door is not closed correctly due to impurities on the seal, a misaligned door, or a damaged seal. Also, inserting too much fresh food at once can cause this issue. For some models, ensure air can circulate around the sensor if it's blocked by food. Finally, check for sufficient air circulation behind the appliance and clean the condenser unit if there is insufficient compressor and condenser unit cooling.
