▶ What is the cause and its counter
action for chemical smells with new
products?
During its delivery to customers, chemical smells from various components could
build up inside of the compartments. So, please let the doors open for some time
to use the unit.
Precautions
: Smells tend to get soaked into the liners or other components.
If food generating much smell is stored inside, it would stick on to
the liners and other components and it is so difficult to remove the
smell. Especially, customers should take care in storing smelly food
properly with its sealing being tight during the early period of the
product's use.
▶ What can be done when the
smell keeps on even thought the
deodorizers are cleaned?
1) Turn off the refrigerator (unplug the unit) and remain the door opened.
2) Take out the food stored in the refrigerator. And then, take out all the shelves,
door bins and containers, and put them in warm water. After cleaning them by
using dish detergents and drying them, put them back to their locations.
3) Remove the deodorizer and soak it in warm water more than 4 hours.
After drying it in sunlight, put it back to its location.
4) Throw away the smell-soaked plastic bags and put the food in new ones.
▶ What causes the funny smell in
