Troubleshooting

Not every problem is serious enough to warrant calling sales service staff. Before calling for help, please check if the problem can be solved with the aid of the following tips:

• Unusual noises:
  Check if the refrigerator is standing firmly on level ground, and if the fixtures are all secure. Also, the pipes at the lower back of the refrigerator should not be touching each other, and the compressor should not be in contact with other objects.

• No cooling:
  Check the power supply for power cut; burnt-out fuse; plug not fitting in the socket or wrong Voltage.

• Lamp not working:
  The lamp may have burnt out. If this happened replace it with a 10W/115V lamp.

• Deterioration of cooling performance:
  Check that the setting on the thermostat knob is not too warm, that the door is closed properly, that thick layers of ice have not built up in the freezer, that the door isn’t being opened too frequently, that too much food hasn’t been placed in the refrigerator or that food which is too warm is not being placed in the refrigerator.

• Stop working:
  Check if there is a power failure, power voltage is low excessively, power plug make contact well and temperature regulator points to position “O”.

• Food frozen in cold-storing chamber:
  Check if the temperature control dial may set too big, and if the stowed food contact with the cold source of cabinet back.

• The water overflowed after defrosting:
  Check that the drain hole is not blocked, and the drain pan is fixed properly.

• Normal phenomena:

  • Dew may appear on the exterior of the refrigerator if the external humidity is high. This can be wiped dry.
  • The area where the door seal sticks to the refrigerator may be warm. This is caused by the heating device to avoid dew and frost.
  • A bubbling/ rattling noise sometimes could be heard. This is due to refrigerant flowing in the cooling pipe or because the refrigerator is in start-up or closing mode.
  • The temperature of the compressor can reach ao0c.
