Check if there is power failure.
Check if the power plug is plugged into the power outlet.
Check that the fuse has not blown.
When the refrigerator is cooling excessively
The temperature control dial may be set too high
If you place foodstuffs containing a lot of moisture directly under the cool air
outlets, they will freeze easely. This does not indicate a malfunction.
When the refrigerator is not cooling sufficiently

air.
You may have put something hot or a lot of foodstuffs into the refrigerator.

The door gaskets may be damaged.

the floor.

When the cabinet's side panel heats up
The side panel of the cabinet will heat up when the door is opened or closed
frequently, when starting the unit and when the unit operates in summer with
high ambient ouside temperature.
In such case, do not touch the panel, it results from the dissipation of the heat
from inside the cabinet, and it does not mean that something is wrong with the
refrigerator.
When condesation form on the outside of the refrigerator
Condesantion may form on the outside when the humidity is high such as
during a wet season. This is the same result as the condensation formed when
chilled water is poured into a glass. It does not, therefore, indicate a failure,
wipe dry with a dry cloth.
When you hear a sound like water flowing
A sound like water flowing is the refrigerant flowing. It does not indicate a
malfunction.
