Why is the refrigerator not cooling properly?

If your Whirlpool GX5FHTXVY refrigerator is not cooling properly, you can try the following troubleshooting steps: 1. Check Power and Controls: - Ensure that the power cord is securely plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet. - Verify that the outlet is working by plugging in a lamp or other device. - Make sure the refrigerator controls are turned on. Refer to the manual for instructions on using the controls. 2. Allow Time for Cooling: - If the refrigerator is newly installed, allow 24 hours for it to cool completely. - Avoid opening the doors frequently, as this can let warm air enter and affect cooling performance. - If a large load of food has been added, give the refrigerator several hours to return to the desired temperature. 3. Check Temperature Settings: - Ensure that the temperature controls are set correctly for the surrounding conditions. Adjust the controls to a colder setting if needed. - Wait for 24 hours and check the temperature again. 4. Clean Condenser Coils: - Over time, dust and debris can accumulate on the condenser coils, affecting cooling efficiency. Clean the coils using a vacuum cleaner or a brush. If the issue persists after following these steps, it is recommended to contact a qualified technician for further assistance.
