SOMETHING STRANGE ?
DON’T WORRY. HERE IS THE ANSWER.
Case
Explanation
•
Pipes (refrigerant vessel) are placed beneath the
surface to prevent moisture forming on it.
•
When you close the door and then open again
immediately, the door is not easy to open. Warm air
rushes into the inside to make the pressure difference.
In this case wait for a minute, then it will open easily.
•
When the compressor starts to run or stops, refrigerant
which makes the inside cold flowing in the pipes can
make such a sound.
•
Defrosted water can also make such a sound. (This
refrigerator adopts an automatic defrosting system.)
•
Inside parts shrink and/or expand due to temperature
change — When the inside gets cold or when the door
is open — such sound can be made.
•
Compressor or fans for cold air circulation can make
such working sound. (If the refrigerator is not level, the
sound can be louder.)
Frost and/or dew can be made in the following cases ;
•
High temperature and/or high humidity around the
refrigerator
•
When doors are open too long
•
Foods with much moisture are stored uncovered or
unwrapped
❈
You can see the same appearance when cold water
is poured in a glass cup and dew is forming on the
surface of it.
•
The light bulb radiates heat while it is on, so when
doors are open too long, dew can form on the light
cover due to temperature difference.
•
In case it is highly humid around the refrigerator,
moisture in the air sticks to the surface to form the dew.
Front and side of
refrigerator feels warm or
hot.
Doors do not open easily.
It sounds like water is
flowing from the
refrigerator.
Something cracking or
click sound.
Humming or buzz sound.
Dew or frost on the wall and/or
food container surface in the
freezer and refrigerator
compartment.
