Whirlpool WF2T321 - Non-failure analysis; Trouble Shooting

Problems Possible Cause & Solution
Non-failure analysis
•
Both sides of the refrigerator has a condenser, it is a normal phenomenon to be heated during operation.
• The temperature is high inside the refrigerator during the rst time operation, cooling time will be longer.
• Due to the high ow rate of refrigerant in the capillary within the refrigeration system, water running sounds may
occur sometimes.
• When the humidity is high, it is a normal phenomenon for dew appearing on the refrigerator surface and
particularly near the door sealing.
• Buzz: Buzz will be generated by running compressor specially when starting up or shutting down.
• Clatter: The solenoid valve or electric switch valve will clatter which is a normal phenomenon and does not
affect the operation.
• The refrigerating chamber will periodically frost and defrost (water drops will be generated on the backside of
the refrigerating chamber when defrosting) which are normal.
