(1) Troubleshooting with self-check

This refrigerator has self-check feature to clarify and indicate where & what the trouble is.
You can perform operation checks and identify malfunction of electric or electronic parts.
Error history is recorded and can be displayed by the refrigerator.

6-2 FLOWCHART OF SELF-CHECK

A

Self-check

Error history mode (Refer to 6.1(8))
Problem may recover automatically. 
Perform the following if error is not displayed
before treatment or the error which was displayed
at the time power of the unit was turned on is not displayed.

Operate the ice-making test.
(Current displayed error: Refer to 

1

 

in the table below.)
The display of ice making compart-
ment setting will blink during the test.

Self-check

Plug the power cord into outlet.
(Current displayed error: 
  Refer to 

2

 in the table below.)

Locate the trouble according to LED
indication. (See page 15,16)

 self-check again.
(go to 

A

)

Note1: Self-check cannot detect abnormalities in the following parts.

See page 19-31 for troubleshooting.
Door switch
Motor damper 
Heater (Water pipe / Vegetable compartment heater, etc.)
Water pump motor 

Note2: If any abnormality is found when switch is turned on, compressor 

and fan motor are suspended for 10 minutes.

Note3: The alarm beeps when some abnormalities (motor-locked) have 

occurred at the refrigerator fan motor restarts its normal operation.

Note4: If any abnormality occurs in compressor's inverter circuit, 

the compressor and the refrigerator fan motor stop for 10 minutes
(not only when plugging the power cord).
