Was the door of the Vacuum Compartment or the Refrigerator
Compartment opened / closed just before?
Do you hear a sound when opening the Vacuum Compartment?
Action and Reasons
Another door may open for a moment by the wind pressure because cool
air path connects each compartment.
Lay a firm board and then install the refrigerator thereon.
Install the refrigerator with clearance around it.
You may feel that the operation sound is loud because the compressor
operates in high-speed under the following conditions: the refrigerator
does not cool fully on the occasion such as using it for the first time,
opening/closing the door frequently, the surrounding temperature is high.
When it is set to " 急冷凍 (Quick Freezing)"/" 急冷藏 (Quick
Cooling)"/" 急速製冰 (Quick Ice Making)", operation sound of the
compressor or the fan motor gets louder because of high-speed revolution.
As the compressor operates slowly for energy savings, you may hear an
operating noise for a long time.
The operating power varies in response to changes in the inside
temperature of the refrigerator, and thus you may sometimes hear a
large noise.
The sound is made between the drawer and the rail.
It is not an abnormal state.
These sounds are caused when the refrigerant flows or water flows/
evaporates to remove frost.
This is not malfunction.
This sound is caused because the parts squeaks when the refrigerator
temperature changes.
This is not malfunction.
These sounds are caused when the electric parts to control
the refrigerator temperature operates.
This is not malfunction.
These sounds are made when ice is separated from the ice tray of the
auto ice maker or water is supplied to the ice tray.
This is not malfunction.
To stop the sound, touch the
button to change it to " 製冰停止
(Stop)".

This sound is caused when the refrigerator starts the operation to cool.
This does not affect the refrigerator performance. Adjust the refrigerator
adjustable mount to keep it level if you want to correct it.
Lay a firm board which has more than 1cm thickness on the floor if the
refrigerator itself inclines.
It is because the air that entered the Refrigerator Compartment is rapidly
cooled and the pressure in the Refrigerator Compartment temporarily
lowers.
Do not leave the door open for a long time. Open and close it diligently.
Hot air may come from the bottom of the refrigerator to exhaust the heat
generated when the cooling device operates.
The temperature may rise to 50 – 60 ˚C immediately after installation or
during summer.
It does not pose safety or performance problems, but avoid touching it.
Change the setting to "-1˚C (Subzero)" or "+1˚C (Chiller)".
Hold down the handle to lock.
The vacuum function will not work unless it is locked.
Press the handle until it stops to lock it.
Install the Vacuum Compartment Gasket.
Remove any packing material of foods or other things which are caught in.
Clean the vacuum compartment gasket if it is dirty.
It takes about three to four minutes for the Vacuum Case to be vacuumed
after the vacuum pump starts to operate. Wait for more than four minutes
after opening or closing.
The Vacuum Compartment has been vacuumized properly if a vacuum
releasing sound (hissing sound) is heard when opening it.
