Detailed Check Points and Countermeasures
● Install the refrigerator on a stable, level floor, or in a place with a
stable board under it.
● Install the refrigerator in a location with enough
space around it.
● Securely attach the leg adjuster cover.
● After installation, the refrigerator operates at full power to cool its
interior, so it will make a louder sound.
● This is the sound of the cooling fluid (refrigerant) flowing through
the cooling device. This sound might also be heard when the
compressor has stopped.
● This is the sound of parts, such as the motor, which control the
temperature inside the refrigerator running.
● This is the sound of the plastic creaking due to a change in
temperature (when the door is opened).
● This is the sound of a temporary drop in air pressure when the air
that entered into the refrigerator is suddenly cooled.
●
The deodorizing function will not remove all odor.
●
Either wrap or seal such foods.
●
This is because many plastic parts are used inside the refrigerator.
As your food cools, the odor will gradually go away.
●
The temperature in these locations might reach 50 ºC to 60 ºC
immediately after your refrigerator is installed. This is not abnormal.
●
If this becomes an annoyance, earthing the refrigerator main body
is recommended.
●
The door might feel heavy for a moment, but it will soon feel normal
again.
●
Closing the doors slowly will eliminate this problem.
