If your unit exhibits any of the following behavior patterns, you need not be overly
concerned. They are part of normal operation.
• If the surrounding temperature is unusually high, the unit may " sweat" on the
sides and doors. Just wipe off the unit with a clean cloth.
• If you hear the sound of gurgling water in the unit, it is the refrigerant flowing.
This sound can also be heard when the unit stops operating.
• When the unit is operating, it may feel warm. This is not abnormal.
• When too much food is stored at one time, it is normal for the compressor to run
for a long time, then stop.
• In summer, the warm surrounding temperature causes the compressor to run for
long periods so as to maintain the ideal temperature inside the unit. This is a
normal condition.
If you do notice a problem, first check this manual. If the problem continues, contact the
vendor. Never try to dismantle or repair the unit yourself.
