Moisture on the Outside of the Cabinent - Top Freezer Refrigerator

Possible Solutions

Is the room humid?

A minimum amount of condensation is normal, especially during higher humidity conditions. If you live in a humid area, it is normal for your refrigerator to have a certain amount of humidity on the freezer or refrigerator.

Humid room air causes moisture to build, especially when the doors are opened often. Avoid excess moisture buildup by minimizing door openings. Get all items out at one time, keep food organized, and close the door as soon as possible.

Improper sealing of the gaskets on the refrigerator or freezer doors could also cause humidity to form. Check the seal around the outside doors and the freezer door to make sure nothing is obstructing the gasket seal.

You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between LOW (move control to the far left-hand side to allow moist air out of the crisper for the storage) and HIGH (move control to the far right-hand side to keep moist air in the crisper for the storage).
