clean the interior of the refrigerator. The refrigerator should never be directly sprayed with water. This may cause corrosion and weaken the insulation
•The rubber seal on the door should always remain clean. Failing to keep it clean might result in cold air leaking from the refrigerator and leading to increased energy consumption
•Plastic parts inside the refrigerator which are contaminated with oils (animal or vegetable) for an extended period of time will deteriorate and become frail over time. Therefore it's important to clean the inside and outside regularly. The drain pan gets dirty quite easily and if it's not cleaned regularly, bad odors might start to develop.
Troubleshooting
Before calling service, please follow the checklist below. This may save you an expensive service call
1.When the refrigerator does not work
•Check if there is a power failure
•Check if the power plug is plugged into the power outlet.
•Check that the fuse has not blown
2.When the refrigerator is cooling excessively
•The temperature control dial may be set too high
•If you place food containing a lot of moisture directly under the cool air outlets, they will freeze easily. This does not indicate a malfunction
3.When the refrigerator is not cooling sufficiently
•The food may be packed too tightly together which will block the flow of cool air
•You may have put something hot into the refrigerator
•The door may not have been closed properly
•The door gaskets may be damaged
•The refrigerator may not be ventilated (there may be insufficient clearance between the refrigerator and the surrounding area)
•The temperature control dial may not be set properly
4.When defrosted water overflows inside the refrigerator and onto the floor
•Check that the drain pan is housed properly
5.When condensation forms on the outside of the refrigerator
•Condensation 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 malfunction. Wipe off the condensation with a dry cloth
6.When you hear a sound that sounds like water flowing
•A water flowing sound is the refrigerant flowing. It does not Indicate a malfunction
7.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 outside 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
