TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Troubleshooting tips… Before you call for service
You can try to solve the following simple problems by yourself. If they cannot be solved, contact the service area.
Problem Appliance won’t run.
Possible cause/What to do
Make sure the appliance is connected to the power source and the plug is
firmly connected to the wall outlet. Supply voltage is too low. Power failure
or circuit breaker is tripped.
Odor.
Compressor runs for large periods of time.
Strong odor foods should be tightly wrapped. Rotten food inside the appliance.
Clean the interior of the refrigerator.
Normal during summer when ambient temperature is high. Refrigerator is full.
Let foods cool down to room temperature before placing them into the
refrigerator. Doors are opened too frequently.
Light does not turn on
Make sure the refrigerator is connected to power supply. Light bulb is burned out. Have the light bulb replaced by a qualified service technician.
Doors cannot be properly closed.
A food package is holding the door open. The appliance is not properly level.
Noise.
Make sure floor is level and the appliance is properly seated. Make sure accessories are placed at correct places.
Door gasket is not tight.
Remove foreign matter from door gasket.
Carefully heat the door seal to reshape it to the door. Use an electrical hair
dryer and a clean towel.
Water pan overflows.
Too much food in the fresh food compartment resulting in heavy defrost. Doors not closed properly, resulting in frost due to hot air entering the compartments.
Hot cabinet.
Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the cabinet. This is normal.
When cabinet becomes hot due to high room temperature, storage of too much
food or shutdown of the compressor, provide proper ventilation to facilitate
heat dissipation.
Surface condensation.
Condensation on the exterior surface and door gaskets of the refrigerator is normal when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensated water using a clean cloth.
Abnormal noise.
Ice maker does not produce ice.
Buzz: The compressor may buzz during operation, this noise is particularly
high upon start or stop. This is normal. Cracking: Refrigerant flowing inside
of the appliance may produce a cracking noise which is normal.
After installing the water line and starting the refrigerator, it takes 12
hours to produce ice cubes. Turn on the ice maker. Check whether the water
pressure is 30-100 psi and the water line is connected normally. Make sure the
water supply valve is open and check the water pipe is not bent. Make sure
whether the ice storage box is installed.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Troubleshooting tips… Before you call for service
Problem
Possible cause/What to do
No ice is dispensed.
Make sure there is ice in the ice storage box.
Check if ice is melted. If the ice will not be used for a long period of time,
empty the ice storage box and turn off the ice maker.

The speed of dispensing water is slow.
Make sure the water pressure is 30-100 psi. Replace the water filter.
Water drips from water dispenser.
Dispensed water tastes bad.
It is normal for a few drops to come out from the water dispenser. However, if
water keeps dripping, check the connection of the water line.
If the refrigerator is not used for more than four days, dispense at least one
gallon of water. Replace the filter in time.
