Please observe the following safety precautions to use the
refrigerator safely and correctly and to prevent accident or
injury when servicing.
1. Be careful of an electric shock. Disconnect power cord
from wall outlet and wait for more than three minutes before
replacing PWB parts. Shut off the power whenever
replacing and rapairing electric components.
2. When connecting power cord, wait for more than five
minutes after power cord was disconnected from the wall
outlet.
3. Check if the power plug or card is pinched between the
refrigerator and the wall. f the cord is damaged, it could
cause fire or electric shock.
4. f the wall outlet is ocerloaded, it may cause a fire. Use a
dedicated circuit for the refrigerator.
5. Be sure the outlet is grounded. This is particulary
important in wet or damp areas.
6. Use standard electrical components.
7. Make sure hooks are correctly engaged.
Remove dust and foreign materials from the housing and
connecting parts.
8. Do not fray, damage, run over, kink, bend, pull out, or
twist the power cord.
9. Please check for evidence of moisture intrusion in the
electrical components. Replace the parts or mask with
insulation tape if moisture intrusion was confirmed.
10. Do not touch the icemaker with hands or tools to
confirm the operation of geared motor.
11. Do not suggest that customers repair their
refrigerator themselves. This work requires special tools
and knowledge. Non-professionals could cause fire,
injury, or damage to the product.
12. Do not store flammable materials such as ether,
benzene, alcohol, chemicals, gas, or medicine in the
refrigerator.
13. Do not put anything on top of the refrigerator,
especially something containing water, like a vase.
14. Do not put glass bottles full of water into the freezer.

3-2 ControI the amount of water suppIied to the icemaker.
Caution: Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least three minutes before removing the main PWBcover.
310 Volts are present in the control panel.
Water SuppIying Time ControI Option
1) The water supplying time is set at five seconds when the refrigerator is deivered.
2) The amount of water supplied depends on the setting time and water pressure (city water pressure).
3) f the ice cubes are too small, increase the water supplying time. This happens when too little water is supplied into the ice
tray.
4) f the ice cubes stick together, decrease the water supplying time. This happens when too much water is supplied into the ice
tray.
Caution: When adjusting the amount of water supplied, adjust step by step. Otherwise the water may spill over.
3. When the adjustment of the control switch for the amount of water supplied is complete, check the level of water in the ice.

4-1. Sound
ProbIems Checks and Measures
Hiss sounds ExpIain generaI principIes of sounds.
All refrigerators make noises when they run.
The compressor and fan produce sounds.
There is a fan in the freezer compartment which blows cool air to freezer and
refrigerator compartments. Hiss sounds are heard when the air passes through
the narrow holes into the freezer and refrigerator compartments.
CooIing Fan sound in the compressor compartment.
There is a fan on the back of the refrigerator which cools the compressor
compartment. f there is a small space between the refrigerator and the wall, the
air circulation sounds may be noticeable.
Noise of Compressor.
This operating sound happens when the compressor compresses the
refrigerant. The compressor rotates at 3600 RPM. The sound of compressor
Bigger refrigerators make more noise than small ones
CIick sounds ExpIain the principIes of temperature change.
The sounds happens when pipes and internal evaporator in the refrigerator
compartment expand and contract as the temperature changes during the
refrigerator operation. This sound also happens during defrosting, twice a day,
when the ice on the evaporator melts.
CIunk sound ExpIain that it comes from the compressor when the refrigerator starts.
When the refrigerator operates, the piston and motor in the compressor rotate
at 3600 RPM. This sound is caused by the vibration of motor and piston when
they start and finish their operation. This phenomenon can be compared with
that of cars. When an automobile engine starts, it is loud at first but quiets
down quickly. When the engine stops, so does the vibration.
Vibration sound Check the sound whether it comes from the pipes vibration and friction.
nsert bushing or leave a space between pipes to avoid the noise.
Fix the fan blade if it is hitting on the shroud
Fix the drip tray if it is loosened.
Sound depends on the instaIIation Iocation.
Sound becomes louder if the refrigerator is installed on a wooden floor or near
a wooden wall. Move it to the another location.
f the refrigerator is not leveled properly, a small vibration can make a loud
sound. Please adjust the level of the refrigerator.
- 84 -
Problems Checks and Measures
Sounds of water flowing Explain the flow of refrigerant.
When the refrigerator stops, the water flowing sound happens.
This sound happens when the liquid or vapor refrigerant flows from the
evaporator to compressor.
Click sounds Explain the characteristics of moving parts.
This noise comes from the MCOM controller's switch on the top of the
refrigerator when it is turned on and off.
Noise of cemaker operation Explain the procedure and principles of cemaker operation.
(applicable to model with cemaker). Automatic cemaker repeats the cycle of water supplying cemaking ice

produced by a motor to rotate an ice tray and ice dropping and hitting ice bin
sounds are also heard.
Noise when supplying water. Explain the principles of water supplied to dispenser.
When the water supply button in the dispenser is pressed, the water supply
valve in the compressor compartment opens and let the water flow to the water
tank in the lower part of the refrigerator compartment. The water is dispensed
by this pressure. When this happens, motor sound and water flowing sound are
heard.
Noise when supplying ice. Explain the principles of ice supply and procedure of crushed icemaking in a
dispenser.
When ice cube button is pressed, ice stored in the ice bin is moved by an auger
and dispensed. f crushed ice button is pressed, the ice cube is crushed.
When this happens, ice crushing and hitting ice bin sounds are heard.
- 85-
4-2. Measures for Symptoms on Temperature
ProbIems Checks and Measures
Refrigeration is weak. Check temperature set in the temperature controI knob.
Refrigerator is generally delivered with the button set at normaI use (MD).
But customer can adjust the temperature set depending on their habit and taste.
f you feel the refrigeration is weak, then set the temperature control button at
strong position. f you adjust the button in the freezer compartment as well,
the refrigeration is stronger than adjusting refrigerator only.
The food in the chilled drawer is . The chiIIed drawer does not freeze food.
not frozen but defrosted Use chilled drawer for storing fresh meat or fish for short periods. For storing for
a long periods or freezing food, use a freezer compartment. t is normal that
frozen foods thaw above the freezing temperature (in the chilled drawer).
Refrigerator water is not cool. Check the water storage Iocation.
f water is kept in the door rack, move it to a refrigerator shelf. t will then
become cooler.
ce cream softens. ExpIain the characteristics of ice cream.
The freezing point of ice cream is below -15C[5F]. Therefore ice cream may
melt if it is stored in the door rack.
Store ice cream in a cold place or set the temperature control button of a freezer
at strong position.
Refrigeration is too strong. Check the position of temperature controI button.
Check if refrigeration is strong in whole area of the refrigerator or partly near the
outlet of the cooling air. f it is strong in whole area, set the control button at
weak. f it is strong only near the outlet of cool air, keep food (especially damp
foods and easily frozen foods) away from the outlet.
Vegetables are frozen. Check the vegetabIes storage.
f vegetables are stored in the refrigerator shelf or chilled drawer instead of
vegetable drawer, they will be frozen. Set the control button at weakif they are
also frozen in the vegetable drawer.
The food stored at inside of Check if food is stored near the outIet of the cooIing air.
the shelf freezes even the The temperature at cooling air outlet is always below the freezing point.
control button is set at MID. Do not store food near the outlet of the cooling air as it block the air circulation.
Do not block the outlet. f the outlet of the cooling air is blocked, the refrigerator
compartment will not be cooled.
- 86 -
4-3. Odor and Frost
Problems Checks and Measures
Odor in the refrigerator compartment. Explain the basic principles of food odor.
Each food has its own particular odor. Therefore it is impossible to prevent or
avoid food odor completely when food is stored in the completely sealed
refrigerator compartment. The deodorizer can absorb some portions of the odor
but not completely. The intensity of odor depends on refrigerator conditions and
environments.
Check the temperature control button and set at strong.
Clean inside of the refrigerator with detergent and remove moisture. Dry inside
the refrigerator by opening the door for about 3 or 4 hours and then set the
temperature control button at strong .
Frost in the freezer compartment Explain the basic principles of frost formation.
The main causes for frosting:
- Door was left open.
- Air penetration through the gasket
- Too frequent door opening. (parties. etc.)
- Hot foods are stored before they are cooled down. The temperature of freezer
is -19C[-2.2F]. if temperature is set at MD. f hot air comes into the
refrigerator, fine frost forms as cold air mixes with hot air. f this happens quite
often, much frost forms inside of the refrigerator. f the door is left open in
Summer, ice may form inside of the refrigerator.
Frost in ice tray. Explain basic principles of frost formation.
When ice tray with full of water is put into a freezer compartment, the water
evaporates. f cool air fan operates, the moisture attached to the jaw (protruded
part) of ice mold will freeze and form frost. f warm water was put into the ice
mold, the situation will become worse.
- 87 -
4-4. Others
ProbIems Checks and Measures
The refrigerator case is hot. Explain the principles of radiator.
The radiator pipes are installed in the refrigerator case and partition plate
between the refrigerator and the freezer compartment in order to prevent
condensation formation. Particularly in summer or after installation of
refrigerator, it may feel hot but it is normal. f there is not enough space to
dissipate heat, it can be hotter due to lack of heat radiation. Please install a
refrigerator in a well-ventilated place and leave the clearance between
refrigerator and wall:
Small holes in a door liner Explain that the hole is for releasing gas.
A small hole in the door liner is for releasing gas during insulation materials
lining work. With a releasing hole, forming can be easily done .
Electric bills are too much. Explain that the hole is to allow the air to escape when vacuum forming plastic
parts and pumping foam insulation into cavities.
NOTE! Holes and releasing gas appear to be very crude and would not be
acceptable in a manual.
There are small holes in the plastic liner of some parts of the refrigerator. These
holes allow plastic parts to be injection molded and vacuum formed by allowing
air bubbles to be expelled. They also allow foam insulation to be pumped into
cavities where air bubbles may build up.
Condensation on the inside Explain how to store foods
wall of the refrigerator Condensation forms when refrigerator is installed at damp area, door is
compartment and the cover of frequently opened, and wet foods are not stored in the air tight container or
properly vegetable drawer. wrapped. Be sure to store wet foods in airtight containers or securely covered in
plastic wrap.
When is the power connected? When should the power be connected ?
You can connect the power immediately after installation. However, if the
refrigerator was laid flat before or during installation, you must stand it upright
for 6 hours before plugging it in. This allows the refrigerant oils to return to the
sump in the compressor. f you operate the refrigerator before the oil has had a
chance to settle, you could damage the compressor.
Door does not open properly. Refrigerator compartment door does not open properly.
When the door is open, warm open air comes into the compartment and is
mixed up with cool air. This mixed air shall be compressed and increase the
internal pressure when door is closed. This causes the door sticked closely to
the refrigerator in a moment. (f the refrigerator is used for a long time, it will
open smoothly.)
When the refrigerator compartment door is opened and closed, the freezer
compartment door moves up and down.
When the refrigerator compartment door is opened and closed, fresh air comes into
the freezer compartment and moves up and down the freezer compartment door.
Door opens too easily.
There is a magnet in the gasket so it closes securely without a gap. t can be
held open easily if something is in the way and obstructs the door's closing
A door does not close properly.
f the refrigerator is not properly leveled, the doors will not close easily. Adjust
the level using the leveling screws under the front of the refrigerator.
