characteristic of modern compressors
that operate at higher speeds than
older models.
Contraction and dilatation of inside
components, due to temperature
variations, can cause soft clicking
noises in the refrigerator.
Warmth near the doors
It is normal for the area near the door
and sides to present higher
temperatures. The warmth prevents
moisture formation.
Warmth near the back
It is normal for this area to present
higher temperatures, since this is
where the cooling fluid circulates at
higher temperatures. Avoid contact
with this part of the refrigerator.
Normal operation
01.It takes a few minutes for the
refrigerator compartments to cool
when the unit is turned on: If the
temperature of one of the
compartments is higher, when the
unit is turned on, it will take a few
moments for it to drop.
02. The compressor surface is heating
up: It is normal for the compressor
surface to heat up when it is
operating properly. You should not
touch it.

Door is kept open too long, or is opened too frequently.
Is there food inside the appliance that may be dripping?
Excess noise
The refrigerator is not properly leveled.
The refrigerator is touching the wall.
Modern refrigerators have increased storage capacity and more stable
temperatures. They require a high efficiency compressor.
Refrigerator operates at higher pressures during the start of the ON cicle.
Refrigerant (used to cool refrigerator) is circulating throughout the system.
The outside refrigeration pipes are touching each other or the refrigeration pipes
are touching the cover.
The food is too tightly packed together, and this is blocking the flow of air.
Hot food or too much food was place inside the refrigerator.
The temperature control was not properly adjusted.
Condensation inside the refrigerator
Room temperature is very high or the door has been left open too long.
Liquid foods inside the refrigerator are not in a properly sealed container.
Refrigerator not cooling enough or not cooling
The door is not properly closed.
