Point to be checked
Has the water just been put into the Water Tank ?
When using the Water Dispenser, the water dispensed
in the beginning is not chilled enough.
The refrigerator is equipped with the dew prevention and heat radiation tubes.
The back and side plates may be heated especially when starting up or if the door is frequently opened and closed.
The two compartments are connected with an air duct. When closing one of the doors, the door may be opened by
the air pressure through the duct. This is a normal phenomenon.
The sound like water flowing and boiling water is the sound of the cooling liquid (refrigerant).
A creaking sound comes from the storage compartment. It is the sound caused by friction of the parts due to temperature change.
You may feel that the operation sound is larger because the comppressor 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.
The sound becomes more quiet after cooling fully.
The compressor operates at low speed at night, for long vacations or absences, potentially creating large vibrations.
It is because the compressor operates in low-speed for conserving energy.
It is because the system changes the operating power of the refrigerator according to the temperature change.

It may take 24 hours or even more to chill the water in the Water Tank
completely ,if the ambient temperature is high in the summer seasons, etc..

Chilled water is supplied from the WaterTank in the refrigerator
compartment through the tubes which is placed in the compressor
compartment, the bottom of the cabinet, and the door. Therefore,
the water in the beginning may not be chilled ,because that water
was not in the cold sections, however, after dispensing half of glass
