Excess moisture in the fridge or frost in the freezer. The door gasket attaches to the refrigerator or freezer door panel and prevents air from entering or escaping the cabinet when the door is shut. This process causes the surface of the evaporator coils to become extremely cold. Wipe surfaces dry as needed.

Check the seal around the outside doors and the freezer door to make sure nothing is obstructing the gasket seal. When working properly the defrost system melts frost off the evaporator coils every 8 hours or so to keep the air paths through the evaporator clear so the freezer and refrigerator compartments cool properly. To avoid excess moisture buildup limit door openings.

A damaged gasket lets warm moist air into the refrigerator when the door is closed causing excessive frost and cooling problems. Get all items out at one time keep food organized and close the door as soon as possible. Wipe surfaces dry as needed.
