Troubleshooting 

 

There are many common issues you may experience with your refrigerator that can be solved very easily, without the 

need of a service call. Try the tips below to troubleshoot your unit should you experience any problems:

Check the temperature control setting 

External environment may require a higher setting

Vibrations

As each cycle ends, you may hear gurgling sounds caused by 

the flow of refrigerant in your refrigerator. 

Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause 

popping and crackling noises.
