When in troubleBefore Use Operation Cleaning
When in troubleBefore Use Operation Cleaning
Install the refrigerator at:
A place with good ventilation not exposed to direct sunlight or hot air
To prevent a diminishing in cooling performance and to reduce power costs.
A place with low humidity
To prevent rusting, electric shock and fire.
A strong and level place
To prevent vibration and noise, and ajar or tilting doors. If the refrigerator supports sink easily into the floor material, lay a strong plate or board underneath. (To prevent deformation or discoloration due to the weight or heat.)
A place away from other devices
To prevent noise or video interference with devices such as televisions.
A place with at least 3 cm of space beside the left and right of the refrigerator, 10 cm of space from the top and 6 cm from the back.
To allow heat to dissipate from the sides, top and the back of the refrigerator.
Use a dedicated outlet
Use a dedicated outlet for the power supply that meets the rating specified on the rating label. (The rating label is located on the door-liner of the refrigerator compartment.)
The refrigerator will not be damaged even if the power is supplied soon after installation. It takes a while for the refrigerator to cool, therefore supply power as soon as possible.
Electrical Connections
Make sure this unit is properly grounded.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its dedicated electrical outlet. This will provide the best performance and prevent electrical circuits from being overloaded and causing a fire. Make sure that the electrical outlet provides the proper voltage. Extension cords are not recommended.
If your refrigerator is installed in the high humidity location, not only ground connection but also installation of the earth leakage breaker is recommended.
If the power cord is damaged, purchase a new cord from MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC SERVICE CENTRE. Make sure that the power cord is designed for this model. A qualified service person should only replace the power cord.

Corrosion control treatment may be required for the refrigerant circuit (pipe) due to generation of corrosive gases. Contact the retail store where you purchased the refrigerator.
Use in hot spring areas
The operation noise gets louder immediately after
installation.
Immediately after instillation, when: the weather is hot, the doors are frequently opened or closed, or any similar situation; the operation noise will get louder because the refrigerator will switch to high-speed operation to cool with high power.
Although R600a refrigerants are combustible, the refrigerant circuit is hermetically sealed and normally leaks will not occur.
Warning
Should the refrigerant circuit be damaged:
1. Do not use flames or electrical appliances nearby.
2. Open the windows to fully ventilate the room.
Then, contact the retail store where you purchased the refrigerator.
Do not damage the refrigerant
circuit (pipes) or drive screws into it.
Warning

Problem Check Explanation and action
Door alarm sounds
Is the door of the refrigerator or freezer compartments open?
Is the rotating partition of the refrigerator compartment turned up to the front?
Close the door. The alarm sounds at every minute after the door is opened, and after 4 minutes it sounds continuously. If the alarm sounds even after closing the door, press the ENERGY SAVING button and RAPID COOL button at the same time for about 3 seconds to stop it. An inspection is required. Contact the retail store where you purchased the refrigerator or MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC SERVICE CENTRE. Check the position of the rotating partition while the doors are open.
Ice cube is small or joined together
Has ice been stored inside for a long time?
If the ice is stored for a long time, ice cubes may stick together or shrink. (Due to a phenomenon called sublimation.)
Noise interferes with televisions or other devices
Is the refrigerator installed near to an electronic device such as a television? Is the power to the refrigerator supplied from a socket near the entry hole of the antenna cable?
Install the refrigerator away from electronic devices such as televisions. We recommend using a dedicated power supply.
Loud noises Annoying noise
These noises are normal.
The noise gets louder suddenly or the tone changes.
A whistling sound is made after closing a door. A hissing, bubbling or running water sound is made sometimes. A whipping or dripping sound is sometimes heard from inside the refrigerator after a door is opened. A buzzing sound is made sometimes.
Immediately after installation, when the weather is hot, when the doors are frequently opened and closed, during the rapid cooling operation, and in similar situations, the refrigerator switches to high-speed operation and cools with high power. This is the sound of the fan motor starting. This is the sound of the refrigerant (gas) flowing.
This is the creaking sound as warm air enters and expands the plastic.

C) ! immediately after installation and in the summer. This is because the heat discharging and condensation prevention pipes are located on the sides and the top of the refrigerator. They are required for cooling and the heat is not an abnormality. The refrigerator compartment rotating partition also has a! condensation prevention heater that heats up.
!"A heat discharging fan is located at the bottom of
the refrigerator. Warm air may be blown from here.
First, check the items described in this section. If the problem persists, contact the retail store where you purchased the refrigerator as soon as possible.
Frequently asked questions in the initial period and in summer
Questions about operation and handling

Page 11
Page 16
Page 6
Problem Check Explanation and action
Does not cool well Not much ice is
made Ice melts
Is “Low” set as the temperature for the compartment? Has enough time passed after installation?
Is heat discharging being blocked? Check there is gap around the refrigerator and the refrigerator is not exposed to direct sunlight. Is the flow of cold air being blocked? Are the doors being opened frequently, or is a door ajar?
Set the temperature to “Mid” or “High”. It takes about 4 or 5 hours for the refrigerator to cool, and up to about 24 hours in the summer to make ice. Check that the refrigerator is installed correctly.
Check the quantity of food inside and ajar door.
Food freezes in the refrigerator compartment
Is the temperature on the control panel set to "High"? Is food with a lot of moisture stored at the rear of the
shelf? Is the surrounding temperature 5
o
C or less?
Set the temperature to "Mid". Note that in the rapid cooling operation, the temperature inside the refrigerator drops temporarily. Place drinks and food containing a lot of moisture, such as tofu, vegetables and fruit, at the front. Freezing is likely to be prevented when the temperature settings of the refrigerator compartment and vegetable compartment are set to “Low”.
Cannot adjust the temperature
Is displayed?
Cancel the child safety lock.
Condensation forms on the outer walls and inside the refrigerator
Frost forms in the freezer compartment
Water drips onto the floor
Are the doors being opened frequently, or is a door ajar?
Is the humidity high, for example is it raining?
When moisture in the air cools, it forms frost or condensation. Even when a door is open only slightly, it can cause frost or condensation, or dripping onto the floor. Condensation may form temporarily. Wipe off with a dry cloth. It is also easy for frost to form in the freezer compartment. Minimize the time that the doors are open.
Doors open easily Doors do not close
Is a door making contact with food or a case? Is too much food packed inside? Has food fallen behind a case in a drawer door, or is the power cord or another object trapped between the refrigerator and a door? Is the refrigerator installed stably? Are the adjustable supports making contact with the floor?
Store food so that the door does not make contact with objects when closed. Remove any objects. Make sure that the door does not trap objects such as food, power cords or plastic bags.
Lower the adjustable supports to raise the front side slightly and make the doors easier to close.

CAUTION
1. This appliance is designed for use in ambient temperature listed below.
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 effect the inside temperature. However, open & close of the door results in the 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.
