• A ticking sound may be heard inside the appliance; this is normal.
This sound occurs when the various accessories contract or
expand.
• Heat-proof pipes are installed in the front corners of the appliance to
prevent condensation from forming.
When the surrounding temperature rises, this may not always be
effective. However, this is not abnormal.
• In very humid weather, condensation may form on the outer surface
of the appliance when the moisture in the air comes into contact with
the cool surface of the appliance.
• This is the refrigerant, which cools the inside of the appliance.

that it is airtight.
• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or
suspect food.
• Is the air outlet on the appliance plugged in?
• Space the food out as much as possible to improve ventilation.
