Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

The appliance is not 

operating at all or the 

temperature is too high.

•  Check that the power plug is correctly connected.
•  Is the temperature control on the front panel correctly set?
•  Does sun shine on the appliance or are there heat sources nearby?
•  Is the back of the appliance too near to the wall?

The food in the refrigerator 

is frozen.

•  Is the temperature control on the front panel set to the coldest 

temperature?

•  Is the surrounding temperature too low?
•  Did you store the food with a high water content in the coldest part 

of the fridge?

There are unusual noises.

•  Check that the appliance is installed on a stable, level floor.
•  Is the back of the appliance too near to the wall?
•  Have any foreign objects fallen behind or under the appliance?
•  Is the noise coming from the compressor in the appliance?
•  A ticking sound may be heard inside the appliance; this is normal. 

This sound occurs when the various accessories contract or 
expand.

The front corners and 

sides of the appliance are 

warm and condensation 

starts to form.

•  Heat-proof pipes are installed in the front corners of the appliance 

to prevent condensation from forming. 
When the surrounding temperature rises, this may not always be 
effective. However, this is not abnormal.

•  In very humid weather, condensation may form on the outer 

surface of the appliance when the moisture in the air comes into 
contact with the cool surface of the appliance.

You can hear a liquid 

bubbling in the appliance.

•  This is the refrigerant, which cools the inside of the appliance.

There is a bad smell inside 

the appliance.

•  Has a food item spoiled?
•  Make sure that strong smelling food (for example, fish) is wrapped 

so that it is airtight.

•  Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or 

suspect food.

There is a layer of frost on 

the appliance walls.

•  Are the air outlet vents blocked by food stored inside the 

refrigerator.

•  Space the food out as much as possible to improve ventilation.
•  Is the door fully closed?

Condensation forms on 

the inside wall of the 

appliance and around 

vegetables.

•  Food with a high water content is stored uncovered with a high 

humidity level or the door has been left open for a long time.

•  Store the food with a cover or in sealed containers.

The lamps in the freezer 

and refrigerator are not 

turned on.

•  The lamps may not be turned back on if the doors of the freezer 

and refrigerator remain opened side by side for 2 seconds or 
longer. Close the doors and then open them again.
