Premium refrigerators rely on precise airflow paths and compartment controls to keep food safe and fresh. Small blockages or incorrect settings can upset the balance. Target Temperatures Fresh food compartment: 37–40°F Freezer: 0°F Specialty drawers: follow brand guidance (meat, produce, deli often have dedicated settings). Keep Air Moving Avoid pushing containers against rear walls or vents. Overstuffing prevents circulation and causes warm spots that trigger compressors to run longer. Sensor and Damper Care Clean accessible sensors and check for ice around dampers. Sticky dampers cause temperature swings. Shelving Strategy Store meats on lower shelves, dairy in the main cavity (not the door), and produce in humidity-controlled drawers. Proper placement reduces door-open losses and stabilizes temperatures. Maintenance Vacuum condenser coils twice a year. Replace door gaskets that no longer seal. Level the unit so doors close by themselves.
