  3. Otherwise, the door will not open or close properly, which causes frost to build up.
  4. Do not store too much food in the freezer drawer. This prevents the freezer drawer from closing properly, resulting in frost buildup.

STEP 4 Leveling the refrigerator

  • To adjust the height of the left side:
  • Insert a flat-head screwdriver into the leveler of the left side front leg. Turn the leveler clockwise to raise the left side or turn it counterclockwise to lower.
  • To adjust the height of the right side:
  • Insert a flat-head screwdriver into the leveler of the right side front leg. Turn the leveler clockwise to raise the right side or turn it counterclockwise to lower.

STEP 5 Adjust the door height and the door gap

  • Check the height difference between the doors, and then lift up and hold the door with the lower height.
  • Insert a suitable-sized snap ring (A) between the door grommet (B) and the hinge as shown.

CAUTION

  • Insert only one snap ring. If you insert two or more snap rings, the rings may slip out or make a rubbing noise.
  • Keep the snap rings out of children’s reach and keep them for future use.
  • Do not raise the door too much. The door can contact and damage the top cover.

STEP 6 Attach the handles

  1. Using a Phillips screwdriver, attach the handle screws to the refrigerator, two for each handle respectively, as shown in the illustration to the left.
  2. Attach the handle to the handle screws on the door.
  3. For type B handle: Insert the hook on the middle of the handle to its designated hole on the door, and then place the upper and lower part of the handles to the handle screws.

STEP 7 Connect the water dispenser line

  • A water dispenser with a filter is one of the helpful features on your new refrigerator. To help promote better health, the water filter removes unwanted particles from your water. However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms.
  • You may need to purchase a water purifying system to do that. The water line also connects to the ice maker. For the ice maker to operate properly, water pressure of 30 to 120 psi (206 to 827 kPa) psi is required.
  • If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 30 psi / 206 kPa), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.
  • After you have connected the water line, make sure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator is properly filled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until water runs from the water outlet.

STEP 8 Initial settings

  • By completing the following steps, the refrigerator should be fully functioning.
  • Plug the power cord into the wall socket to turn the refrigerator on.

Refrigerator will not operate

  • Not connected to an electrical supply - Plug the power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not use an extension cord.
  • No power to the electrical outlet - Plug in a lamp to see if the outlet is working.
  • Household fuse has blown or circuit breaker has tripped - Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, contact a licensed electrician.

New installation

  • Following installation, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator and freezer to cool completely. NOTE: Adjusting the temperature control(s) to the coldest setting will not cool either compartment (refrigerator or freezer) more quickly.

Motor seems to run too much

  • Your new refrigerator has an energy-efficient motor
  • The refrigerator may run longer than you’re used to, because the compressor and fans operate at lower speeds that are more energyefficient. This is normal.

NOTE:

  • Your refrigerator may run even longer if the room is warm, a large load of food is added, the doors are opened often, or if a door has been left open.

Refrigerator seems noisy

  • The compressor in your new refrigerator regulates temperature more efficiently and uses less energy than older models. During various stages of operation, you may hear normal operating sounds that are unfamiliar. The following noises are normal:
  • Buzzing/Clicking - Heard when the water valve opens and closes to dispense water or fill the ice maker. If the refrigerator is connected to a water line, this is normal. If the refrigerator is not connected to a water line, turn off the ice maker.
  • Cracking/Crashing - Heard when ice is ejected from the ice maker mold.
  • Popping - Heard when the inside walls contract/expand, especially during initial cooldown.
  • Pulsating/Whirring - Heard when the fans/compressor adjust to optimize performance during normal operation.
  • Rattling - Heard when water passes through the water line, or due to the flow of refrigerant. Rattling may also come from items placed on top of the refrigerator.
  • Water running or gurgling - Heard when ice melts during the defrost cycle and water runs into the drain pan. Sizzling - Heard when water drips onto the heater during the defrost cycle.

Temperature is too warm

  • New installation - Following installation, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator and freezer to cool completely.

NOTE:

Adjusting the temperature control(s) to the coldest setting will not cool either compartment (refrigerator or freezer) more quickly.

  • Doors are opened often or not closed completely - This allows warm air to enter the refrigerator. Minimize door openings, keep the doors fully closed, and make sure both doors are properly sealed.
  • Air vents are blocked - Remove items that are immediately in front of the vents.
  • Large amount of warm food recently added - Allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its normal temperature.
  • Controls are not set correctly for the surrounding conditions - Adjust the controls to a colder setting. Check the temperature again in 24 hours.

Temperature is too cold

  • Controls are not set correctly for the surrounding conditions - Adjust the controls to a warmer setting. Check the temperature again in 24 hours.
  • Top refrigerator shelf is colder than lower shelves - On some models, air from the freezer enters the refrigerator compartment through vents near the top refrigerator shelf. As a result, the top shelf can be slightly colder than lower shelves.
  • Air vents are blocked - Remove items that are immediately in front of the vents.
  • Interior moisture buildup NOTE: Some moisture buildup is normal. Clean with a soft dry cloth.
  • Room is humid - A humid environment contributes to moisture buildup. Use the refrigerator only in an indoor location, with as little humidity as possible.
  • Doors are opened often or not closed completely - This allows humid air to enter the refrigerator. Minimize door openings, keep the doors fully closed, and make sure both doors are properly sealed.

Interior lights do not work

  • Doors have been open for an extended period of time - Close the doors to reset the lights.
  • Light bulb is loose in the socket or has burned out - On models with incandescent interior light bulbs, tighten or replace the bulb. See the “Lights” section.

NOTE:

These sounds are normal.

  • Car engine ignition. As the operation stabilizes, the sounds will decrease.

Clicking! or Chirping!

Buzzing!

  • While the fan is operating, these sounds may occur. When the refrigerator reaches the set temperature, the fan sound will stop.

SSSRRR! Whir!

  • During a defrost cycle, water may drip on the defrost heater, causing sizzling sounds.
  • As the refrigerator cools or freezes, refrigerant gas moves through sealed pipes, causing bubbling sounds.
  • Bubbling!As the refrigerator temperature increases or decreases, plastic parts contract and expand, creating knocking noises. These noises occur during the defrosting cycle or when electronic parts are working.

Cracking!

  • For ice maker models: When the water valve opens to fill the ice maker, you may hear a buzzing sound.
  • Due to pressure equalizing when you open and close the refrigerator door, you may hear a whooshing sound
