heating of areas near the freezer
Your refrigerator comes with an anti-condensation mechanism.
The heating of some areas external to your refrigerator is normal. This happens to prevent water droplets from condensing on the outside of your refrigerator. However, if room temperature and humidity are higher than usual, light condensation may form. Dry with a cloth.
general precautions
•Don’t touch the inside of the freezer door with wet hands.
•Don’t let children hang from the doors or play near the refrigerator when the door is open, as they may injure themselves, bang into it, or get trapped.
•Don’t let children hang from shelves or the Smart Station door, as excessive weight could break these.
•Sometimes, it can cause trouble to reopen the refrigerator door immediately after closing. This normal occurrence is a result of a vacuum formation inside the refrigerator, caused by air at different temperatures combining. Wait 10 to 15 seconds and the doors will open easily once again.
Before throwing out your old refrigerator or freezer, take the following pre- cuations to prevent the risk of a child entrapment.
•Take off the doors
•Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
