SOLUTION
• Check that the power plug is properly connected.

inner temperature.
• Set the refrigerator colder.
• Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located near a heat source?
• Is the back of the Refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air from
circulating?
• Check to see if the set temperature on the digital display is too low.
• Try setting it to a warmer temperature.
• Is the temperature in the room too low? Set the refrigerator warmer.
• Did you store the food which soft in the coldest part of the refrigerator?
• Try moving those items on the other shelves in fridge instead of keeping them in the

• Try locating the refrigerator at least 2 inches from the wall.
• Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?
• A "ticking" sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. It is normal and occurs because
various accessories are contracting or expanding according to the temperature of the
refrigerator interior.
• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the vertical hinged section
of the refrigerator to prevent condensation.
• Is the refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave the door open
for a long time.
• If a sound that hit something is heard from inside the refrigerator, It is normal. The
sound comes due to ice cubes rubbing in the bucket periodically.
• Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before making ice?
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?
• Did you manually stop the ice making function?
• Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer temperature lower.
• This is normal. The bubbling comes from refrigerant circulating through the
refrigerator.
• Check for spoiled food.
• Foods with strong odors(for example, fi sh) should be tightly covered.
• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled food.
• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely.
• Allow suffi cient space between the foods stored for effi cient air circulation.
• Is the freezer drawer closed properly?
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?
• Has the water supply line tubing been crushed or kinked?
• Make sure the tubing is free and clear of any obstruction.
• Is the water tank frozen because the fridge temperature is too low?
Try selecting a warmer setting on the Digital display.
• Is there an imbalance between the right and left parts of the door?
• Condensation or water drops may form if the humidity is too high while the refrigerator
is operating.
• If condensation or water drops appears on both sides of fridge door's central part,
turn the Energy Saver mode off after removing the condensation.
