●
The mechanical section releases heat. (P. 6)
●
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, but this is not abnormal.
●
Has the temperature of the refrigerator compartment or the freezer
compartment been adjusted in detail? (P. 22)
●
Air taken into the interior is suddenly cooled. The inner pressure
becomes lower than the external air momentarily. The items in the
compartments seem to have been "sucked".
