If your RCA Refrigerator or freezer is too cold, the temperature control might be set too low. Try turning the knob counter-clockwise to a warmer setting and allow 24 hours for the temperature to adjust.
What to do if food is freezing in my RCA Refrigerator?
If food is freezing in your RCA Refrigerator, it might be placed too close to the air vent. Move the items away from the back and top of the refrigerator. Alternatively, the temperature control knob might be set too low; adjust the knob counter-clockwise to a warmer setting.
Why my RCA Refrigerator does not run?
If your RCA Refrigerator is not running, first, ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working power outlet. If it's plugged in, check your home's breaker or fuse box; a tripped breaker should be reset or a blown fuse replaced. Lastly, the refrigerator might be in defrost mode; if so, wait approximately 40 minutes for the cycle to complete and the cooling system to restart.
What to do if my RCA Refrigerator is too warm?
If the temperature in your RCA Refrigerator or freezer feels too warm, start by checking the temperature control knob and adjust it to a lower (colder) setting, remembering to allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize. Make sure that the doors are not opened too often or left ajar, and verify that nothing is blocking the door from closing properly. If you've recently added warm food, give it time to cool down. Finally, ensure items inside aren't blocking the airflow by keeping them within the trim of the glass shelves and away from the sides or vents.
Why is there moisture on my RCA RFR1205-WHITE Refrigerator?
If you notice moisture forming on the outside or inside of your RCA Refrigerator, it's often due to high humidity. You can dry the surface and try adjusting the temperature knob to a slightly colder setting. Make sure that the doors are not opened too often or left ajar, and verify that nothing is blocking the door from closing properly. Ensure there are no open containers of water inside the refrigerator; if there are, cover or seal them.
Why does my RCA RFR1205-WHITE run so much?
If your RCA Refrigerator compressor is running frequently or for extended periods, especially when first plugged in, allow about 24 hours for it to cool down. Adding warm or large amounts of food can also cause this, which is normal. Check that the door is not being held open by any items. Hot weather or frequent openings can also cause this. If the temperature control is set to the coldest setting, adjust it to a warmer setting.
Why does my RCA RFR1205-WHITE Refrigerator smell?
If your RCA Refrigerator has an odor, it might be due to food that isn't sealed or packaged properly. Try resealing the packaging. You can also place an opened box of baking soda inside the refrigerator, replacing it every three months. Another cause might be that the interior needs cleaning. Follow the cleaning instructions in the Proper Care and Maintenance section.
Why is there frost in my RCA RFR1205-WHITE freezer?
If you notice frost or ice crystals on frozen food in your RCA Refrigerator, it could be that the freezer door was left open or opened frequently. Try turning the knob counter-clockwise to change to a warmer setting; allow 24 hours to adjust. Additionally, items might be blocking the freezer air vents, preventing proper airflow. Make sure to move items away from the rear wall.
Why is the light not working in my RCA RFR1205-WHITE?
If the light in your RCA Refrigerator isn't turning on, first, ensure the refrigerator is properly plugged into a power source. If it is, the LED light might be burned out; follow the instructions in the LED Light Replacement section to replace it. Note that not all models come with a freezer light.
Why does the freezer door of my RCA RFR1205-WHITE pop open?
If the freezer door of your RCA Refrigerator pops open when you close the refrigerator door, this is normal if the freezer door closes afterwards on its own, indicating a good seal. However, if the freezer door doesn’t close on its own after popping open, adjust the leveling legs, consulting the leveling leg feature instructions in the Installing Your Refrigerator section.
