Causes and Symptoms
- Food is stored in the refrigerator without being placed in airtight containers.
- It’s been a long time since I cleaned the inside of the refrigerator.
- It is the time to replace the fresh air filter.
- The temperature of the refrigerator compartment is set too high.
Refrigerators are designed to seal in order to effectively hold cold air, so the smell of food in the
refrigerator does not escape easily.
Therefore, when storing food, seal it so that odors do not permeate within the refrigerator.
If you use a refrigerator with a fresh air filter, check if it's time to replace the filter.
Try this
Do you store food in the refrigerator without sealing it?
➔ Store food in airtight containers or plastic bags.
Storing unsealed food in the refrigerator may cause the smell of food to remain in the refrigerator.
Is a shelf or a basket in the refrigerator stained with food?
➔ Clean the inside of the refrigerator using lukewarm water.
To prevent and remove odors, use a soft wet towel to clean the inside of the refrigerator.
If you used a neutral detergent, clean the inside of the refrigerator with a clean wet towel to prevent stains.
Is the temperature of the refrigerator compartment set higher so that odor particles spread more easily?
➔ Press the [Refrigerator] button on the refrigerator to lower the temperature of the refrigerator.
If there is an odor in the refrigerator, it may be because the temperature in the refrigerator compartment
is high, allowing odor particles to spread easily.
The temperature of the refrigerator compartment can be adjusted between 0°C and 6°C with the [Refrigerator]
button, so use it to lower the temperature.
