Trouble-Shooting Guide
Sometimes you may come across minor problems that in most cases do not require a service
call and can be easily eliminated. The problem may have resulted from improper handling
and/or installation of the appliance. Please refer to the trouble-shooting guide to assist you in
identifying the possible cause and solution to your problem. Should the problem still persist
after completing these checkpoints, please contact the closest authorized service agent in your
area for assistance.
The Appliance Fails to Operate After Connecting to Electrical Power Supply
Check the power cord is properly connected.
Check the power supply in the electrical outlet.(blown fuse/ circuit breaker)
Make sure the appliance is switched on.
Continuous Operation of the Cooling System
The door is frequently open or left open too long.
The door is not properly closed (the door may sag; the gasket may be polluted or
damaged).
Perhaps you may have overloaded the appliance with fresh foods.
The reason may be inadequate ventilation of the compressor (assure adequate air
circulation).
Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall
As long as the defrost water runs to the channel and through the outlet to the drain pan on
the compressor, automatically defrosting of the appliance is assured.
In case the ice formation on the inner back wall is increased (3-5mm), ice should be
manually defrosted (See: Operation Control).
Never use electric devices for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp
objects.
Water is Leaking from the Refrigerator
If the discharge water outlet is clogged, or the defrost water drips over the channel, water will
leak from the refrigerator.
Clean the clogged outlet, for example with a plastic straw
Manually defrost the increased ice layer.(See: Operation Control)
