or “plub-plub” (boiling water sound)
or “shaaa”(water flowing sound).
Sometimes there’s a “wheeen” or
“klik-klak” sound (every 1~2 hours).
After plugging it in, there’s sometimes
a “gu” or “gween” sound (every
1~2 hours) when the ice-maker is off.
Is food or a case blocking the
door?
Is there food caught at the back
of the case of a drawer-door?
Is the electrical cord caught between
the body of the unit and the door?
Does the refrigerator wobble or
seem unstable?
Are the adjustable legs touching the floor?
Make sure again that you close
the doors properly.
Please do this. This is the reason.
It takes about 12 hours to make the first batch of ice.
In the summer, it may take about 24 hours.
The ice-maker will judge that there is a lot of ice.
Please take food items, etc. out of the ice storage box.
Also, please level the ice evenly to the forefront.
Please turn off the “ICE MAKER OFF”
red light.
Please place the outlet for the pipe inside
the tank correctly.
The number of ice cubes in one batch may be reduced.
Pour water into the water supply tank.
Please check the attachment around water
supply tank. If there is a gap, cool air may
leak and water may freeze.
The ice cube will become small or stick together if put in
the ice storage corner for a long time (calls sublimation).
We recommend you to stop doing ice-making
when not use the ice cube.
This is because there is a waterway that flows water
evenly into the ice-maker tray. Please do not fill water
above the “full line” mark on the water supply tank.
If ice is made with water that has a lot of mineral substances,
white sediment may form inside the cubes. It is harmless.
Please give a gap around. It makes sound when
the refrigerator connect with the goods or walls.
If it is right after installation, or hot out, or
if doors are open/closed often, it goes into
high-speed operation to chill with greater power.
This is the sound of the fan motor starting up.
This creaking sound occurs when warm air
enters and the plastic expands.
This is the sound of refrigerant (gas) flowing
through.
This is the auto ice-maker sound. Even if there’s no
water in the water supply tank, the auto ice-maker and
the pump will make a sound about every 100 minutes.
This is the sound of the auto ice-maker
doing a operations check. Even when it is on
“ICE MAKER OFF” it will do the checking.
Put away items properly so that they don’t
interfere when closing the door.
Remove the item. Please do not let food
items, the electrical cord, plastic bags, etc.
get in the way.
Bring the adjustable leg down, and raise
the front higher, with a slightly raised front,
closing doors becomes easier.
Please check “when alarm rings”,
“When alarm did not stop”.

When you hear noise from the lower rear of the refrigerator
Part of the cooling system is the compressor, which operating, does create a more noticeable increase in noise level.
This is normal. However, if the noise is quite loud, this could be because the refrigerator is not installed correctly on
a hard level surface, or there may be a problem that may need service.
CAUTION
1. This appliance is designed for use in ambient temperature listed below.
MODEL NAMEAMBIENT TEMPERATURE RANGECLIMATIC CLASS

The internal temperatures could be affected by such factors as the location of the refrigerating appliance, ambient
temperature and the frequency of door opening, and, if appropriate, a warning that the setting of any temperature
control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors.
2. A rise in temperature of the frozen food during manual defrosting, maintenance or cleaning could shorten the storage life.
3. Food to be frozen is not to be placed in direct contact with food in storage and, if appropriate, that it could be necessary
to reduce the quantity to be frozen if freezing every day is anticipated.
4. The electrical power failure for 1-2 hour will only slightly affect the inside temperature. However, opening and closing the
door results in temperature loss. In case there is more than 24 hours electrical power failure, the food should be taken
out from the fridge.
5. In case you are leaving or there is no food in the fridge for more than 3 weeks, The fridge should be unplugged and
cleaned.
