• Has a food item spoiled?
• Make sure that strong smelling food (for example, fish) is wrapped so that
it is airtight.
• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled food.
When cleaning the inside of the fridge, store food elsewhere and unplug
the appliance. Wipe with a dry dishcloth after 2-3 hours and then circulate
air inside the refrigerator.
• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate
freely.
• Allow sufficient space between the foods stored for efficient air circulation.
• Is the freezer drawer closed properly?
If the freezer drawer is not completely closed or is blocked, humidity from
outside may enter and cause severe frost to form.
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?
• Has the water supply line tubing been crushed or kinked?
Make sure the tubing is free and clear of any obstruction.
• Is the water tank frozen because the refrigerator temperature is too low?
Try selecting a warmer setting on the main display panel.
• Check if the filter is properly installed. If it is not properly installed, the water
dispenser may not work.
