Water in the tray at the back of your fridge is normal. It's likely due to the defrost cycle, where the fridge melts ice build-up and channels the resulting water to a drip tray. This water then evaporates. Ensure the tray is securely in place and check for any blockages in the drainage system to prevent overflow.

FAQs & Answers

  1. Is it normal for my fridge to have water in the tray? Yes, it's normal during the defrost cycle, as ice melting creates water that drains into the tray.
  2. How can I prevent water overflow in my fridge? Ensure the drainage system is clear of blockages and the tray is correctly positioned.
  3. What should I do if the water tray is full? Regularly check the tray and drainage system for blockages to prevent overflow.
