General information
During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in
operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life. When you plan not to operate,
remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave
each door OPEN to prevent odour formation.
And won't use water or ice dispensers, close the water valve. - Otherwise, water
leakage may occur.
Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your refrigerator
temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the
power is off.
If the products equipped with LED Lamp, do not disassemble Lamp Cover and LED
Lamp by yourself. - Please contact your service agents.
Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator. To avoid
damaging the height adjusting screws, turn them all the way into the base.
The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just
after installation. Don't be alarmed. This is due to the anti-condensation pipe, which
pumps through the refrigerator to prevent "sweating" on the outer cabinet wall.
Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn't make. Because the
sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds
are normal. Hard surfaces, like the floor, walls and cabinets, can make the sounds seem
louder than they describes the kinds of actually are. The following sounds and what
may be making them:
The defrost timer will click when the automatic defrost cycle begins and ends. The
•
thermostat control (or refrigerator control, depending on the model) will also click
when cycling on and off.
Rattling noises may come from the flow of reftigerant, the water line, or items stored
•
on top of the refrigerator.
You refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently to keep your food items at the
•
desired temperature. The high efficiency compressor may cause your new refrigerator
to run longer than your old one, and you may hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating the air through the refrigerator and
•
freezer compartments.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due the refrigerant flowing in your
•
refrigerator.
Contraction cause a popping noise to and expansion of the inside walls may a popping
•
noise.
Water dripping on the defrost heater during a defrost cycle may cause a sizzling
•
sound.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
•
You may hear water running into the drain pan during the defrost cycle.
