Kelvinator KTM5402 (536L, Top Mount) Questions & Answers

Yes I know the settings seem to be the opposite of what it says in the book. If you push the slider towards the left it is the colder setting. I had to put my freezer all the way to the left or it was not cold enough. My fridge one at the moment with cooler weather is in the middle. Hope this helps. I find my fridge very noisy, I can hear it through the wall! Is yours noisy?

Send it back if you can and replace with another model /brand. I wish we had...
Otherwise as Terry said.

Hi , & thanks for your responses,
It can sometimes be noisy, I have put the dial to the far left where it says “colder” , we’ll see how it goes , the booklet says to put it to the far right where it says “less cold “ , very confusing

My brand new fridge/freezer stopped freezing after 7 weeks. It turned out to be a gas leak. It has now been replaced by another new one nearly two weeks ago. Will wait and see how this one goes!
You will probably need a technician to come out to inspect it.

It sounds like your thermostat is not working properly. It should still be under warranty. Contact Kelvinator.

hi my fridge isnt staying cold & freezer over frosting & only a new KTM5402WA bought 2017 what can i do about this problem Thanks kindly

I find it to be a very good fridge never had any issues with it, you won't regret buying one.

When it's empty....pretty good.

Sorry I don't know what you mean by electronic.

Not to my knowledge its just a normal electric fridge.

It has a system that "senses" outside temp as well as inside temp rather than a traditional thermostat which will start it up until it reaches the desired temp. Basic fridge, not a smart fridge and no remote function though if that's what you were asking.
