Question 9

Is it normal for the DAEWOO RN-361DS refrigerator to run continuously?

Accepted Answer

It is generally not normal for your DAEWOO RN-361DS refrigerator to run continuously. However, it is possible that the appliance needs an initial adaptation period of 1 to 2 days after installation or after adjusting the temperature setting, while it stabilizes its internal temperature.

The first cause to check is the ambient temperature. This model is designed to operate within a temperature range of 10°C to 43°C. If the room where the refrigerator is located is very hot or exposed to sunlight, the appliance will need to run more to maintain internal temperatures. Ensure that the refrigerator is placed in a well-ventilated area, away from heat sources (radiators, stove, sunny windows).

Also check the temperature setting. On your DAEWOO RN-361DS, the recommended temperature is 2 to 5°C for the refrigerator compartment and -18°C for the freezer. Be aware that the displayed temperature is a target and not the actual temperature. If the thermostat is set too low or in super cooling mode (S-COOL), the compressor will run longer. Wait 1 to 2 days after an adjustment before evaluating normal operation.

The condition of the door seal is crucial. A worn or damaged seal allows cold air to escape and forces the compressor to run continuously to compensate. Visually inspect the seal all around the door and ensure it adheres well. Also check that the door closes properly and that no obstruction prevents it from closing completely.

The internal organization of the refrigerator plays an important role. An overfilled appliance or one that blocks the circulation of cold air forces the compressor to work harder. Make sure nothing obstructs the ventilation openings in the refrigerator compartment and that food is not packed against the walls.

Your DAEWOO RN-361DS is equipped with an automatic No Frost system with programmed defrosting. Excess frost in the freezer or a malfunctioning defrost system can also prolong the operation of the compressor. Check for any abnormal frost buildup in the freezer.

If after checking all these points your refrigerator continues to run continuously, it is recommended to contact a qualified technician. A faulty compressor, a refrigerant leak, or a malfunctioning temperature sensor may be the cause of the problem and require professional intervention.
