SITUATION
When you hear a sound like water flowing:
The sound like water flowing is actually the refrigerant(cooling gas) flowing. It does not
indicate a malfunction.
When condensation forms on the outside of the refrigerator:
Condensation may form on the outside when then humidity is high e.g. During a wet season.
This is the same as when chilled water is poured into a glass. It does not, therefore, indicate
a failure. Wipe the surface dry with a dry cloth.
