We just hooked up a new mini fridge and as it is starting to cool inside, the outer sides are burning hot to the touch. It is in the garage and the outdoor temp is 88 right now, but I don't think that should make it heat up like it is. Is this normal? There is plenty of breathing room around the fridge, so it is getting air circulation. Any suggestions? Thank you!
On some small units such as this, the condenser coil is actually in the walls of the cooler. It is not that unusual for this type of construction. I have seen this in chest freezers and other such units. If the unit makes the desired temperature, I would watch it for a day or 2 before putting any product into it to ensure it is okay and so you don't loose any product.

It 's builded that way so there's not condensation around the door frame and on the walls.
