Troubleshooting Before calling for service, review the checkpoints below. Any service calls regarding normal situations (No Defect Cases) will be charged to users. General Temperature Symptom Fridge/freezer does not operate. Possible causes • Power cord is not plugged in properly. • Temperature control is not set correctly. • Refrigerator is located near a heat source or direct sunlight. • Not enough clearance between refrigerator and nearby walls or cabinets. • Energy Saver mode is activated.
Symptom Possible causes Solution • Interior wall is hot. • Refrigerator has heat-proof piping in the interior wall. To prevent condensation from forming, the refrigerator has heat-proof piping in the front corners. If the ambient temperature rises, this equipment may not work effectively. This is not a system failure. Odors Symptom Refrigerator has odors. Possible causes • Spoiled food. • Food with strong odors. Solution • Clean the refrigerator and remove any spoiled food.
Troubleshooting Condensation Symptom Possible causes • If door is left open, moisture enters the refrigerator. • Food with high moisture content. Condensation forms on the interior walls. Solution • Remove the moisture and do not leave a door open for extended periods of time. • Make sure food is wrapped airtight. Water/ice (dispenser models only) Symptom Water flow is weaker than normal. Possible causes • Water pressure is too low.
Symptom Possible causes • Ice may jam if the ice dispenser is not used for a long time (approx. 3 weeks). • Ice bucket is not properly inserted. Solution If you won't be using the refrigerator for a long time, empty the ice bucket and turn off the ice maker. • Make sure the ice bucket is properly inserted. • Check if the water line is installed correctly.

Clicking! or Chirping! • While the fan is operating, these sounds may occur.
• As the refrigerator cools or freezes, refrigerant gas moves through sealed pipes, causing bubbling sounds. Bubbling! • As the refrigerator temperature increases or decreases, plastic parts contract and expand, creating knocking noises. These noises occur during the defrosting cycle or when electronic parts are working. Cracking! • • For ice maker models: When the water valve opens to fill the ice maker, buzzing sounds may occur.
Troubleshooting SmartThings Symptom Could not find “SmartThings” in the app market. The SmartThings app fails to operate. The SmartThings app is installed but is not connected to my refrigerator. Could not log into the app. An error message appears when I try to register my refrigerator. The SmartThings app is successfully connected to my refrigerator but does not run.
