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.
