5.2 First Use
Before using your refrigerator, make sure the
necessary preparations are made in line with
the instructions in "Safety and Environmental
Instructions" and "Installation" sections.
• Keep the product running without placing
any food inside for 6 hours and do not
open the door, unless absolutely neces-
sary.
• The temperature change caused by open-
ing and closing of the door while using the
product may normally lead to condensa-
tion on door/body shelves and glassware
placed in the product.
A sound will be heard when the
compressor is engaged. It is normal
for the product to make noise even if
the compressor is not running, as
fluid and gas may be compressed in
the cooling system.
It is normal for the front edges of the
refrigerator to be warm. These areas
are designed to warm up in order to
prevent condensation.
For some models, indicator panel
turns off automatically 1 minute after
the door closes. It will be reactivated
when the door is opened or any but-
ton is pressed.
