Why is my Samsung Refrigerator not cooling?

  Tina BurnettAug 10, 2025
  Your Samsung Refrigerator may not be cooling because: * The power cord might not be properly plugged in. Ensure it is securely plugged in. * The temperature control may not be set correctly. Try setting the temperature lower. * The refrigerator might be near a heat source or direct sunlight. Keep it away from these. * There might not be enough clearance between the refrigerator and nearby walls or cabinets. Ensure there is at least a 2.5-inch gap on the back and sides. * The refrigerator could be overloaded, or food might be blocking the vents. Avoid overloading it and ensure vents are clear.

  If your Samsung Refrigerator isn't cooling properly or the temperature is too warm, start by checking the power cord to ensure it's correctly plugged in. Then, adjust the temperature control to a lower setting. Also, ensure the refrigerator isn't near heat sources or direct sunlight. There should be at least 2.5 inches of clearance around the back and sides for proper ventilation. Avoid overloading the refrigerator, and make sure food isn't blocking the vents.

Why is the interior wall of my Samsung Refrigerator hot?
- T
  Teresa StephensSep 3, 2025
  The interior wall of your Samsung Refrigerator may be hot because it has heat-proof piping in the front corners to prevent condensation. If the ambient temperature rises, this equipment may not work effectively, but this is not a system failure.
