If you open the door again
within 5~10 seconds, it could
be hard to open due to the
pressure difference between
the inside and the outside of
the refrigerator.
Try again after a while.
It has just closed after being
opened.
It makes a water flowing noise.
(Ex : Gurgling, Sizzling, Popping)
A clicking sound may occur in
the refrigerator!
(Ex: Clicking, Rattling,
Chirping, Cracking)
Frost builds up in the freezer
compartment!
(Moisture collects inside the
fridge compartment)
Moisture builds up on the
outside surface of the
refrigerator and on the
interior lamp cover!
Door hard to open!
The flow of refrigerant through the cooling coils may make a
water flowing noise (ex: gurgling, sizzling, popping) or a water
dropping noise may occur during the defrost cycle as ice melts
and flows.
It is not a defect. This is a normal function.
When the refrigerator cools to the correct temperature, when
cooling coils expand or contract, or when relays activate to con-
trol refrigerator components, you can hear these sounds.
It is not defect. This is a normal function.
The ambient temperature and
humidity are high, the door is left
open for a long time or food with
lots of water is stored without a
lid.
The freezer door has remained
open for a long time.
The ambient humidity is too high.
In this case, frost or moisture
could build up. Wipe dry it.
When the fridge door remains
open for a long time, the fridge
lamp cover will be warmed up by
the halogen lamp (35W)
resulting in water condensation.
Wipe dry it.
When it is humid outside, water
in the air could get condensed
on the relatively cold fridge
surfaces.
