Clean the inside of the refrigerator.
Long operation of the refrigerator is normal in summer when the ambient
temperature is high.
It is not recommended to have too much food in the appliance at the same time.
Food shall get cool before being put into the appliance.
The doors are opened too frequently.
Check whether the refrigerator is connected to the power supply and whether the
light is damaged.
The door is stuck by food packages.
The refrigerator is tilted.
Check whether the floor is level an whether the refrigerator is placed level.
Check whether accessories are placed at proper locations.
Clean and remove foreign matters on the door seal.
There is too much food in the refrigerator, or the food stored contains too much water,
resulting in heavy defrosting.
The doors are not closed properly, resulting in frosting due to entry of air and
increased water due to defrosting.
Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing, which is normal.
When the housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperature and storage of too
much food, it is recommended to provide ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation.
Condensation on the exterior surface and door seals of the refrigerator is normal
when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensate with a clean towel.
Buzz: The compressor may produce buzzes during operation, and the buzzes are
loud particularly upon start or stop. This is normal.
