If the door is open, cold air escapes to the outside and the inside temperature of the refrigerator increases.
If the refrigerator keeps operating, malfunction may occur and your electricity bill may become high.
Therefore, a door opening alarm sounds if the door is open for longer than a specific period.
However, if the door opening alarm keeps sounding even when the door is closed properly, the machine should be checked by a service technician.
Try this
Is there so much food in the refrigerator that the door does not close properly?
➔ Reorganize the food items so that the door can be closed properly.
If the refrigerator is overfilled with food items, the door of the refrigerator will not close properly.
In addition, if there are too many food items in the compartment in the door of the refrigerator, the refrigerator door may sag due to the weight of food and become loose.
Have you cleaned the refrigerator recently?
➔ Check if the shelves and bottle racks have been reassembled correctly.
If a drawer or shelf has not been assembled back into the right place after refrigerator cleaning, the door of the refrigerator will not close properly.
Is the refrigerator cover or a plastic bag caught when opening and closing the refrigerator door?
➔ Remove it because the refrigerator door may not close properly.
If there is a cover on top of the refrigerator or a plastic bag in the compartment in the door of the freezer, remove it so it does not get caught in the refrigerator door.
Is the door gasket stained with an unnoticed foreign object so that the gasket doesn't adhere well to the refrigerator door?
➔ Clean the door gasket with detergent.
If the door gasket is stained with a hardened foreign object, such as food, its stickiness may hinder adhesion and the door may not close properly.
Wipe the door gasket with a hot steamed towel and clean it using a toothbrush or sponge with detergent.
Does the door gasket fall out so that it doesn't adhere well to the refrigerator door?
➔ Press the door gasket back into place with your hands to reinsert it.
