7-1-2 SUPER COOL
1. This feature is to shorten the cooling time of the refrigerator by keeping the comp, fan running for a while. When the
Super Cool button is pushed, the Super Cool LED turns on in order and the comp keeps on running. In 2 hours, the
Super Cool mode will be cleared.
2. When the Defrosting mode starts while in the Super Cool mode, defrosting is performed. After that, the Super Cool mode
resumes for the remaining time.
3. When the Super Cool button is pushed while in the Defrosting mode, the Super Cool mode starts in 7 minutes after the
completion of the defrosting even though the Super Cool LED turns on.
4. If a power failure occurs while in the Super Cool mode, the Super Cool mode will be cancelled when the power is
restored.
5. If the Super Cool mode is selected when it has not passed 7 minutes since the comp stopped, the comp will start running
after the remaining time elapses.
6. In Super Cool mode, Freezer fan motor operates with High speed RPM.

7-1-6 DEFROSTING
1. The defrosting is performed each time when the total running time of the compressor reaches 7 hours.
2. After the power is turned on (or restored after a power failure), the defrosting starts when the total running time of the
compressor reaches 4 hours.
3. When the temperature of the defrosting sensor reaches 13 °C or above, the defrosting stops. If the temperature does not
reach 13 °C in 2 hours after the defrosting starts, the defrosting error code is displayed.
(Refer to 7-1-10. Error Diagnostic Mode.)

3. While in the test mode, the function control button is not recognized though the recognition tone (beep~) sounds.
4. After exiting the test mode, be sure reset by unplugging and then plugging in the appliance.
5. If an error, such as a sensor failure, is detected while in the test mode, the test mode is cleared and the error code is displayed.

7-2 PCB FUNCTION
7-2-1 POWER CIRCUIT
The power circuit consists of the noise attenuation part and the SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) part. The SMPS
consists of the rectifier (D1,D2,D3,D4 & CE1) to convert AC voltage to DC voltage, switching part (IC2) to switch the
converted DC voltage, transformer to transmit energy of the first side of the switching end to the second side, the secondary
power to supply power to MICOM and IC, and the feedback part (IC3) to feedback the secondary voltage to the first side of
the transformer in order to maintain the secondary voltage constant.
Caution: High voltage (DC 310V) is maintained in this circuit. Wait at least 3 minutes after unplugging to allow the
current to dissipate. There is a danger of electric shock.
- 26 -
7-2-2 OSCILLATION CIRCUIT
This circuit is to generate the base clock for calculating time and the synchro clock for transmitting data from and to the
inside logic elements of the IC1(MICOM). Be sure to use the authentic parts since the calculating time by the IC1 may be
changed or it will not work if the OSC1 SPEC is changed.
The RESET circuit is for allowing all the functions to start at the initial conditions by initializing various parts including the
RAM inside the MICOM (IC1) when the power is initially supplied or the power supply to the MICOM is restored after a
momentary power failure. For the initial 10ms of power supply, ‘LOW’ voltage is applied to the MICOM RESET terminal.
During a normal operation, 5V is applied to the RESET terminal. (If a trouble occurs in the RESET IC, the MICOM will not
work.)

7-2-5 TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT
The following temperature sensor circuit consists of a sensor to detect the outside (ambient) temperature, sensor in
refrigerator compartment to detect freezer & refrigerator temp. The status of each sensor, whether open or shorted, is
shown below.
The upper CIRCUIT reads FREEZER and REFRIGERATOR temperature, and DEF-SENSOR temperature for defrosting
and the indoor temperature for compensating for the surrounding temperature, into MICOM.
