Something strange ?
Don’t worry. Here is the
answer.
Case Explanation
Heat
Front and side of refrigerator
feels
warm or hot.
Pipes (refrigerant vessel) are placed beneath
the surface to prevent moisture forming on it.
Door
is
sticky
Doors do not open easily.
When you close the door and then open
again immediately, the door is not easy
to open because warm air rushes in
and creates the pressure difference.
In this case wait for a minute, then it will open
easily.
Strange
Sound
It sounds like water is flowing
from
the refrigerator.
When the compressor starts to run or stop,
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.)
Cracking or clicking sounds.
Inside parts shrink and/or expand due to
temperature change --- When the inside gets
cold or when the door is open, such sounds can
be made.
Humming or buzzing sounds.
Compressor or fans for cold air circulation can
make such working sound. (If the refrigerator is
not level, the sound can be louder.)
Frost
& Dew
Dew or frost on the wall and/or
food container surface in the
freezer and refrigerator
compartment.
Frost and/or dew can be made in the following
cases;
H igh temperature and/or high humidity around
the refrigerator.
When doors are open too long.
Food 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.
Dew on the cabinet surface.
If it is highly humid around the refrigerator,
moisture in the air sticks to the surface to form
dew.
