When you hear a loud
sound after installing the

Solution
This is the sound of various parts expanding/contracting
or various control devices operating depending on the
temperature change within the refrigerator.
This is the count of compressor or fan operating when
the operation of the refrigerator is starting or ending. This
is the same phenomenon of the sound generated when
starting or turning off the engine of a car.
This is the sound of refrigerant changing the condition in
the freezer/refrigerator. When the liquid changes to gas,
you will hear the sound of water flowing and when gas
changes to liquid, you will hear the sound.
This is the sound generated when the internal pressure is
temporarily lowered when the warm air entered through
the refrigerator or freezer is cooled fast.
If the refrigerator is installed a wooden floor or next to a
wooden wall, or if the refrigerator is not leveled properly,
the sound can be loud from the vibration.
When you operate the refrigerator for the first time, the
refrigerator will operate at high speed to cool fast and the
sound can seem louder. When the internal temperature
falls below a certain level, the noise will subside.
Door open When the door is slightly
opened after the door Depending on the force or speed of closing the
refrigerator or freezer door, the door can be bumped
open from the pressure.
Be careful not to close the door to hard.
When external air flows into the cool inner surface of the
refrigerator, icing/condensation can be formed.
This will happen more easily when you open and close
the refrigerator door more frequently.
Also, if the humidity of the installed location is high or
during the rainy season or on a rainy day, condensation
can form on the outer side of the refrigerator. This is a
natural phenomenon that occurs during the humid
weather. Wipe the water drops with a dry cloth.
Heat pipes are installed around the front part of the
refrigerator and on the divider of the freezer and
refrigerator to prevent the condensation from forming.
The refrigerator may feel warmer after the installation or
during the hot summer, but this is not a problem.
Icing/
Dew drops When there is icing or
condensation formed on
the inner or outer side of
the refrigerator
Temperature When the front of the
refrigerator is warm
