Solutions and reasons
Cancel the child lock setting.
First, set the versa compartment to the soft freezing.
Then, press the[SUPERCOOL] button. Note that
supercool freezing is available only when the versa
compartment is set to the soft freezing.
Press the [SUPERCOOL] button. Check that the display
shows the supercool freezing mode.
The HIKARI i-see Sensor measures the temperature of
the foods. Be sure to place the foods you wish to
supercool freeze side by side at the top of
other foods in the versa compartment.
After switching to the "SOFT FZR" mode, wait for about 2 hours
until the temperature inside the versa compartment
stabilized. Then, supercool freeze the foods.
When moisture in the air is cooled, frost or dew drops
are formed. Dewdrops or frost may accumulate even
on a small space formed at the door.
Such dewdrops may drip onto the floor.
Moisture may temporarily collect on the unit. Wipe
with a dry cloth. Frost can form easily in the freezer
compartment. Try to reduce the time that the door is
open.
Be careful not to stick any stored foods out of the
shelves or cases.
Remove dropped items and items trapped between the
doors.
Lower the adjustable supports to raise the front of the refrigerator
slightly and make closing the door easier.
Improper installation or any foreign object might
produce a clearance. Then the cold air can flow
backward to cause freezing.
The cold air flows backward to cause freezing.
Remove the dropped food or plastic.
Relocate unit at a distance from televisions and other
appliances.
Use a dedicated power source.
The unit has switched to high-speed operation for
powerful cooling during first operation, when
temperature is hot, when doors are opened and closed
frequently, during "QUICK" mode, etc.
These are sounds made during automatic ice making. The unit's
automatic ice maker and pump make a sound every 100 minutes
or so, regardless of whether or not the tank is filled with water.
These are sounds made during automatic ice making
operation check. This sound is made even during
"STOP" mode.
It is the sound of a fan motor starting to run.
It is the sound of refrigerant (gas) flowing.
This is a creaking sound made when warm air has
penetrated the unit, causing plastic parts to expand.
The refrigerator generates the tone when the air flow
damper or the HIKARI i-see Sensor is operating.
This is the sound of the airflow from the cooling fan.
