Sound
Rattling noise
●
Place the refrigerator on a stout and flat floor, make both adjustable legs
reach the floor and fixed the refrigerator. (P. 6)
●
Do the sides or the back side of refrigerator or the power cord touch the
walls or furniture around the refrigerator?
→ Place the refrigerator so that it does not touch surrounding objects.
Noise bothers me.
●
The compressor or the fan may make loud noise when the refrigerator is being
cooled, such as when the refrigerator is not still cooled soon after installation,
the doors are frequently opened and closed, the temperature around the
refrigerator is high or Fresh Freezing is set ON. This is not abnormal.
→ When the refrigerator has been cooled, the noise becomes small.
Rapping noise
●
When the floor is uneven or the door is closed with a force, the
refrigerator shakes and generates noise.
→ Place a plate under the refrigerator to prevent it from shaking. (P.6)
There is a noise all the
time.
●
It is because that the rotation speed of the compressor is adjusted with
the inverter control. (Noise may not stop but it is not abnormal.)
Body
The top of the refrigerator
is hot.
●
The mechanical section releases heat. (P. 7)
Front (or side) panel is hot.
●
The left and right side surfaces may become hot to let out heat generated
when the refrigeration system operates. The temperature may become
50 °C to 60 °C (when the ambient temperature is 30 °C) after installation
or in the summer.
The side surface looks
warped.
●
In the manufacturing process, the warpage or surface waviness may
occur, but this is not abnormal.
Display
Temperature setting on the
control panel is flashing.
●
Has the temperature of the refrigerator compartment or the freezer
compartment been adjusted in detail? (P. 20)
→ When the temperature is set in detail, the indicator flashes. Cancel the
setting. (P. 20)
Door
The door is heavy when
opening it immediately
after closing.
●
Air taken into the interior is suddenly cooled. The inner pressure becomes
lower than the external air momentarily. The doors seem to be pulled
towards inside.
Magnets do not stick to the doors.
●
The doors are made of glass. Magnets do not stick.
Ice making
Ice cannot be made.
●
When you use this refrigerator for the first time, ice will be made after the
interior has cooled sufficiently. (24 hours or more may be required.)
●
Make sure that [AUTO ICE OFF] is not set. (P. 15)
●
Push in the water supply tank as far as it will go. Push in the ice-making
tray until you hear a clicking sound. (P. 15)
●
Make sure that the ice-making tray has been locked. (P. 19)
●
Do not put foods etc. in the ice storage box. (P. 14)
●
Take in and out the ice-making tray only when necessary.
●
To confirm whether or not the ice maker is operating, press and hold
[AUTO ICE OFF] for at least 10 seconds. If water in the water supply tank
decreases, the ice maker is operating.
• If water has spilled into the ice storage box, wipe it off.
• If water does not decrease, the ice maker is not operating.
→ Consult your dealer.
Inside the ice cube is not
frozen.
●
Has the freezer compartment temperature control been set to “ 1 ” ?
→ Set it to “ 2 ” or “ 3 ”. (P. 8)
The shape of ice is not
“cubic”.
●
There are projections.
→ The groove of the ice-making tray may be frozen.
●
The ice cubes are round or connected to other ice cubes.
→ Is the ice stored for a long time?
(Ice cubes get round or connected by sublimation.)
●
The ice is small.
→ Small ice cubes sometimes produced when no water remains in the tank.
