setting. A refrigerator requires some hours to
cool down completely. Wait until the refrigerator or freezer
has a chance to reach its selected 
temperature. Warm air enters the refrigerator/ freezer
whenever the door is opened.
Open the door less often. Set the freezer or  refrigerator control to a
colder  setting  until the freezer or
refrigerator temperature is satisfactory.  Set the freezer or refrigerator control to
a colder setting until the freezer or
refrigerator temperature is satisfactory. It is normal for ice crystals to form due
to the moisture content of meat. Set the refrigerator control to a
warmer setting
See above solution. Set the freezer control to a warmer
setting until the freezer temperature is
satisfactory.
