Asked by Dylan.
- A:Answer Nope, just make sure you clean it and unplug it before you leave so the ice has time to melt and you can wipe the excess water. Then just plug it back in and it should be all good!

- A:Answer Yes, it's generally safe to keep your Insignia 3.1 cubic feet mini refrigerator on hardwood floors. Here are a few tips to ensure it remains safe and stable: 1.

Q: QuestionJust bought the mini fridge and one day all of a sudden it stopped buzzing and I guess the compressor stopped working. I unplugged it for an hour and plugged it again and it still doesn't work. the lights within the fridge works fine.
Asked by jibu.
This question was asked about the related product: Insignia™ - 3.1 Cu. Ft. Retro Mini Fridge with Top Freezer and ENERGY STAR Certification - Creamy vanilla
- A:Answer I’m sorry to hear about the trouble with your mini fridge. Since the lights are working, it seems like the fridge is getting power, but the compressor might indeed be the issue. Here are a few steps you can try: 1. Check the Temperature Settings: Ensure that the temperature dial is set correctly. Sometimes, if it’s accidentally turned off or set too low, the compressor might not kick in. 2. Inspect the Vents: Make sure the vents inside the fridge and freezer are not blocked. Proper airflow is crucial for the compressor to function correctly. 3. Clean the Coils: Dust and debris on the coils can cause the compressor to overheat and shut down. Unplug the fridge and clean the coils, usually located at the back or underneath the unit. 4. Reset the Fridge: Unplug the fridge again, but this time leave it unplugged for a longer period, like overnight. Sometimes, a longer reset can help. 5. Check the Power Supply: Ensure that the outlet is working correctly by plugging in another appliance to see if it powers on. If these steps don’t resolve the issue, it might be best to contact Insignia’s customer support or Best Buy for further assistance or to check if your fridge is still under warranty If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Q: QuestionCan we use on outdoor patio?
Asked by Retro.
- A:Answer Hello Retro! Indeed, you can place the fridge on your patio. However, ensure it's positioned out of direct sunlight and away from any heat sources. This precaution helps protect the fridge's acrylic coating and also prevents an increase in electricity usage. It's recommended to keep the surrounding temperature under 50°F (approximately 10°C) or over 85°F (around 29.4°C) for optimal performance. |Angelica| Insignia Support| https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-retro-3-1-cu-ft-mini-fridge-with-top-freezer-and-energy-star-certification-mint/6410013.p?skuId=6410013
