03 troubleshooting PROBLEM Water is warm. Cube dispenser does not work. Door hard to open. You hear a water flowing noise (Ex: gurgling, sizzling or popping) or a clicking sound in the refrigerator. (Ex: clicking, rattling, chirping, cracking) Frost builds up in the freezer compartment. (Moisture collects inside the fridge compartment) Moisture builds up on the outside surface of the refrigerator and on the interior lamp cover. POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO The fridge compartment is too warm. Press the REF.TEMP button and set to a colder setting. Six glassfuls of water have been used continuously. When more than six glasses of water are dispensed it takes a few hours to cool additional water. No ice cubes or not enough ice cubes. Wait 12 hours for ice cubes to be made. Requires 24 hours to have enough ice cubes in the ice bin. Ice cubes get stuck together. When ice is not used for a long time or when there is a power failure, ice cubes could get stuck together. If this occurs, throw away the ice lump and empty the ice bin to get freshly made ice cubes. It has just closed after being opened. If you open the door again within 5~10 seconds, it could be hard to open due to the pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the refrigerator. Try again in five minutes. The flow of refrigerant through the cooling coils may make a water flowing noise (ex: gurgling, sizzling, popping) or a water dropping noise may occur during the defrost cycle as ice melts and flows. This is not a defect. It is a normal function. When the refrigerator cools to the correct temperature, when cooling coils expand or contract, or when relays activate to control refrigerator components, you can hear these sounds. They do not indicate a defect. It is normal operation. The ambient temperature and humidity are high, the door is left open for a long time or food with lots of water is stored without a lid. In this case, frost or moisture could build up. Wipe dry it. The fridge door has remained open for a long time. The ambient humidity is too high. When the fridge door remains open for a long time, the fridge lamp cover will be warmed up by the halogen lamp (35W) resulting in water condensation. Wipe dry it. When it is humid outside, water in the air could condense on the relatively cold fridge surfaces. DA68-02935A-02.indb 101 troubleshooting _101 13. 8. 28. �� 9:11

03 TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
WHAT TO DO
Water is warm.
The fridge compartment is too warm.
Press the REF.TEMP button and set to a
colder setting.
Six glassfuls of water have been used
continuously.
When more than six glasses of water are
dispensed it takes a few hours to cool
additional water.
Cube dispenser
does not work.
No ice cubes or not enough ice cubes.
Wait 12 hours for ice cubes to be made.
Requires 24 hours to have enough ice
cubes in the ice bin.
Ice cubes get stuck together.
When ice is not used for a long time or
when there is a power failure, ice cubes
could get stuck together.
If this occurs, throw away the ice lump
and empty the ice bin to get freshly made
ice cubes.
Door hard to open.
It has
just closed after being opened.
If you open the door again within 5~10
seconds, it could be hard to open due to
the pressure difference between the inside
and the outside of the refrigerator.
Try again in five minutes.
You hear a water
flowing noise (Ex:
gurgling, sizzling
or popping) or a
clicking sound in
the refrigerator.
(Ex: clicking,
rattling, chirping,
cracking)
The flow of refrigerant through the cooling coils may make a water flowing noise (ex:
gurgling, sizzling, popping) or a water dropping noise may occur during the defrost cycle
as ice melts and flows.
This is not a defect. It is a normal function.
When the refrigerator cools to the correct temperature, when cooling coils expand or
contract, or when relays activate to control refrigerator components, you can hear these
sounds. They do not indicate a defect. It is normal operation.
Frost builds up
in the freezer
compartment.
(Moisture collects
inside the fridge
compartment)
The ambient temperature and humidity
are high, the door is left open for a long
time or food with lots of water is stored
without a lid.
In this case, frost or moisture could build
up. Wipe dry it.
Moisture builds
up on the outside
surface of the
refrigerator and on
the interior lamp
cover.
The fridge door has remained open for a
long time.
When the fridge door remains open for
a long time, the fridge lamp cover will be
warmed up by the halogen lamp (35W)
resulting in water condensation.
Wipe dry it.
The ambient humidity is too high.
When it is humid outside, water in the
air could condense on the relatively cold
fridge surfaces.
