it was left depart from 9-12:30... I've tried unplugging it, and plugging it back.
when i got posterior home, the light was still on and the freezer still seem cold, but everything in the fridge was hot...PLEASE HELP!!..we really don't wan to win our land lord involved :-?
of course the things in your refrigerator are going to be hot, you gone the door open for 3 hrs, dispose of all of the food, and shut the door, problem solved. your freezer is still cold because you didnt head off that door open Close the door and let it stand for a while it should catch-up within several hours. Leaving it stand open isn't good for it but you should hold done no real damage. I would NOT get through the food as that could be dangerous.
Unplug..let it sit for about 1 hour. plug it final in..you should hear athe condenser kick on. (motor). If it does consequently keep the doors closed DON"T CHECK THE TEMP for about 4 hours.it should be cold. If the motor does not see on. Closed the doors.un plug it. and sorry but... call the landlord..I purely would not mention the whole door being not here open for hours on end story.. He really does not obligation to know that does he?
Good luck Just let it sit a while, plugged in near the door closed like its supposed to be. The stuff inside it is probably ruined, I would throw it out. Leaving the door open shouldnt hurt the fridge but it will help yourself to a while for it to get back down to the proper cooling heat.
Answers: The light bulb anyone on for that long really warmed things up. It should be fine but will take several hours to cool spinal column down. Food probably won't be.
