There is water in the defrost drain pan

Check if ...

The refrigerator is defrosting.

It is more humid than normal.

Water in the defrost pan is overflowing.

Then ...

The water will evaporate. It is normal for water to drip into

the defrost pan.

Expect that the water in the defrost pan will take longer to

evaporate. This is normal when it is hot or humid.

Check to make sure your refrigerator is level. (See the

“Leveling” section.) If it is still overflowing, there is probably

something wrong with the refrigerator. Call the Consumer

Assistance Center.
