When cooling changes
Warm groceries deserve a quick, calm response.
A refrigerator can lose cooling in different ways. The fresh-food section may warm up while the freezer remains cold, both sections may feel warmer than normal, or the appliance may run longer without keeping up. The pattern is worth sharing, but you do not need to identify the cause before you reach out.
Move perishables to a cooler, freezer, or another working refrigerator when needed, and keep the doors closed as much as possible. Avoid repeatedly unplugging the appliance, resetting it, or moving the temperature controls back and forth. Those steps can make a time-sensitive problem harder to follow without offering a dependable fix.
