Troubleshooting
SOLUTION
• Check that the power plug is properly connected.
• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct temperature?
Try setting it to a lower temperature.
• Is the Refrigerator in direct sunlight or located near a heat source?
• Is the back of the Refrigerator so close to the wall that air cannot keep circulating?
(Refer to page 10 for the best location.)
• Is the temperature control on the display set to the correct temperature?
Try setting it to a warmer temperature.
• Is the temperature in the room too low?
• Did you store the food too close to the air vent at the back of the Refrigerator? Move the
food away from the air vent.
• Check that the Refrigerator is level and stable.
• Is the back of the Refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air from
circulating?
• Was anything dropped behind or under the Refrigerator?
• A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the Refrigerator. It is normal and occurs because
various accessories are contracting or expanding according to the temperature of the
Refrigerator interior.
• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the vertical hinged section of
the Refrigerator to prevent condensation.
• Is the Refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave the door open for
a long time.
• Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before making ice?
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?
• Did you manually stop the ice making function?
• Is the Freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the Freezer temperature lower.
• This is normal. The bubbling comes from the Refrigerator coolant liquid circulating
through the Refrigerator.
• Check for spoiled food.
• Foods with strong odors(for example, sh) should be tightly covered.
• Clean out your Freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or suspicious food.
• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely.
• Allow sufcient space between the foods stored for efcient air circulation.
• Is the Freezer drawer closed properly?
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?
• Has the water supply line tubing been crushed or kinked?
Make sure the tubing is free and clear of any obstruction.
• Is the water tank frozen because the Refrigerator temperature is too low?
Try selecting a warmer setting on the main display panel.
