Troubleshooting

Operation sound lasts long.

Annoying sound is generated

by the refrigerator.

Ɣ You may feel that the operation sound is loud because the

compressor operates in high-speed under the

following conditions: the refrigerator does not cool fully

on the occasion such as using it for the first time,

opening/closing the door frequently, the surrounding

temperature is high.

The sound becomes more quiet after cooling fully.

The compressor operates at low speed at night, or during

long vacations or absence.

It is because the compressor operates in low-speed for

conserving energy

It is because the system changes the operating power of

he refrigerator according to the temperature change.

Operation sound sometimes

becomes louder.

Why frost and dew are generated?

When warm and humid air contacts something cold, dew is generated. For example, if you put some ice in the glass in your room,

air around the glass will be cold down and some dew may be generated on the outer surface of the glass.

In the same way, when warm and humid air enters into the refrigerator at the door opening, the warm and humid air contacts cold

inner wall and little dew may be generated.

Accordingly, if the door opening is too frequent or too long, dew will be accumulated at every door opening. In some cases,

dew may be frozen to generate some frost or ice flakes in the freezer compartment.

The door of the refrigerator

compartment was not left

open temporarily?

Please check not to pinch the food or plastic bag between

the door and door frame when you close the door.

Check that the wrapping paper of the food is not getting

When the door is opened frequently or if the door

is opened when the humidity around the refrigerator

is high, moisture in the air may be turned into some

frost or ice on the inner wall or component of the

freezer compartment, or around the air chanels.

This is not a failure. Please try not to open the door

When the many containers in which water or liquid is stored

are put in the same time, water or liquid may be evaporated

and turned into frost or ice on the wall or component of the

freezer compartment, or around the air channels. You can

suppress these frost and ice by putting lid to avoid evaporation

Please wipe frost and ice off with use of a dry cloth.
