Hi, I'm brand new to this forum--thanks in advance to anyone that can help! My wife and I purchased a Sanyo compact all-refrigerator (no freezer) off Craigslist. We took it home, and plugged it in; it works fine, cools well, but the sides get VERY hot. The back stays cool (except for what I assume is the motor, which is also very hot), but the sides are hot. I can't find anything that looks like a fan--it may be that it doesn't have one because it has no freezer. Any thoughts? Is this heat normal? Thanks for your help!

Probably a yoder loop to prevent condensation is the heat you feel. Normal for systems with yoder loop
