Refrigerators generate heat during the process of making cold air. In order to cool this heat down, heat dissipation pipes are installed on both outer walls of the refrigerator, so when the product is operated, heat is generated on the side walls of the refrigerator.

In addition, to maintain the cool temperature inside the refrigerator, the heat generated when the compressor is operated periodically is dissipated to the front and sides of the refrigerator and, therefore, this phenomenon is not a malfunction.


Note :

In particular, a lot of heat may be generated during a hot summer or during the initial installation and operation of the product, but it is not a malfunction if cool air comes out well inside the refrigerator.
Occasionally, the side of the refrigerator may feel hotter than usual immediately after a certain period of inactivity or after receiving after sales service, but this occurs in the process of circulating gas and gradually changes to a similar level as the temperature gradually cools.
If the side of the refrigerator is extremely hot even after checking all of the above, please Call at Geek Squad Phone Number.
