chill sufficiently. | • | Try setting it to a lower temperature. | |
Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located too near a heat source? | |||
| |||
|
| If so, it may not be able to cool sufficiently. Install it in a location that is out of direct | |
| • | sunlight and not near a heat source. | |
| Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall, preventing proper ventilation? | ||
|
| If so, it may not be able to cool sufficiently. Keep it an appropriate distance from the | |
|
| wall. | |
| • Is there too much food inside so that the food is blocking the outlet vent? | ||
|
| To keep the refrigerator at a suitable temperature, do not fill the refrigerator with too | |
|
| much food. | |
The food in the fridge is | • | Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct temperature? | |
frozen. |
| Try setting it to a warmer temperature. | |
| • Is the temperature in the room very low? | ||
| • Did you store the food with a high water content in the coldest part of the fridge? | ||
|
| Try moving those items into the body of the fridge instead of keeping them in the | |
|
| CoolSelect Zone™ drawer. | |

or sounds. | • | Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air from | |
|

| • Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator? | ||
| • A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. This is normal and occurs | ||
|
| because various accessories are contracting or expanding in relation to the | |
|
| temperature of the refrigerator interior. | |
The front corners of | • | Some heat is normal as | |

Water condensation in the drawer may occur when storing vegetables and it will be | |||
|
| removed naturally as time passes. | |
Ice is not dispensing. | • | Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before making ice? | |
|
| It may take longer to make ice if it is not sufficiently cool, such as when first installed. | |
| • Is the water line connected and the | ||
| • Did you manually stop the ice making function? Make sure Ice is set to Cubed or | ||
|
| Crushed. | |
| • Is there any ice blocked within the ice maker bucket? | ||
| • Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer temperature lower. | ||
You can hear water | • | This is normal. The bubbling comes from the refrigerant coolant liquid circulating | |

Frost forms on the walls | • | Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely. | |
of the freezer. | • | 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 | |

|
| 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. | |
