Hitachi Refrigerator Troubleshooting

If you're looking for help fixing your Hitachi Refrigerator, look no further! Our comprehensive Hitachi Refrigerator Troubleshooting guide will explain common issues, provide tips, and show you how to read your model's error codes.

Do I need to connect my water pipe directly into the water dispenser? 
Hitachi refrigerators with water dispenser series comes with a water tank that connects directly to the water dispenser. No troublesome plumbing is required and you can place your refrigerator anywhere in the home. 

Why is the refrigerator/freezer compartment not cold? 
a. Check temperature control dial and temperature settings. 
b. Ensure that the refrigerator is not facing the sunlight directly. 
c. Too much food storage could block the cool air flow circulation. Ensure that ventilation outlets are not blocked. 
d. Check if the door is opened too frequently or for too long time. 

Why does the ice maker of my refrigerator stop making ice? 
a. Ensure that the ice maker function is activated and LED indicator lights are on. 
b. Ensure that the water tank is filled with water. 
c. Ensure that the water tank is fully inserted into the slot and pushed behind the indicated line. 
d. Making ice for the first time will take a longer time (estimated 24 hours). Thereafter, it will take an estimated 2-3 hours to make 8 ice cubes. 
e. Please check if ice compartment is full of ice. When the sensor detects that the ice tank is full, auto ice making process will stop. 

How can I get rid of the smell in the refrigerator? 
a. The most basic way is to clean and maintain the refrigerator regularly. For example: removing expired food quickly, food that has strong smell like durian, kimchi is best to be sealed up in boxes. You may use commonly used household washing liquid to clean the inside of the refrigerator. 
b. You may put special charcoal in the refrigerator to get rid of the smell. Replace them frequently. 
c. You may use lemon skins to get ride of the smell. 
d. Dried and used tea leaves can be placed near the vent of the refrigerator. 

How often do I need to replace the water filter? 
Please replace the water filter once every 3-4 years. 

Why does water leak underneath the refrigerator body? 
It might be due to the increase in temperature. Please check that all doors are closed tightly and there are no small gaps in between the door gaskets. 
The internal water tube might be stuck which causes water overflow. 
Damper fault and frequent opening of doors could cause the increase in defrosting time and generates more water inside the drain pan. 
Compressor room is dusty and overheated. 

Why is there a loud vibration sound from the upper/middle part of the refrigerator? 
Open the freezer door of the refrigerator and if the sound stops after a short while, it might be due to blockage of ice in the fan rotation. You can switch off the refrigerator for a few hours for the ice to melt (please arrange your food in other cooling storage methods). 

Why is the refrigerator compartment not cold but freezer is? 
Please check temperature setting for Refrigerator. 
Please deactivate energy saving setting. 
Please ensure door is fully closed and not left open for long time. 
Please check if there are many foods inside and if it is blocking the cold air blowing vents at the back. 
Please check if there are any gaps on door edges. 
Please check condition of door gasket (rubber sealing) 
It could be due to damper, sensor defect or PCB issue.

Product Reviews:

I am from Aligarh, bought a 4 door refrigerator, with inverter technique, 670 litres capacity from local shopkeeper and totally disappointed with Hitachi company service. We called for a complaint as our refrigerator was not working due to some issue. When it was checked, we were told that the PCB of a panel need to be changed and since it happened after 1 year of purchasing so we were charged Rs.500/-.They told us that new PCB would be of Rs.10900/- and in front of that too much costly refrigerator, we agreed to get it repaired as soon as possible... And that too when it was the time of June days (worst summer time). But nobody came for the service till date even after of reminding so many times, MOREOVER in spite of understanding our problem, they just IGNORED us and STOPPED to RECEIVE our call... Is this the courtesy of this brand towards their customers? I will never ever recommend anyone to buy any product of Hitachi.

I have purchased Hitachi 1.5 ton 5 start split AC, AC have not completed two years, but water is freezing on indoor unit, also support person come and blindly say, Gas is finished. You have to pay approx 3-4k and took the 500 rs fees. Very worst experience. Please spend some money more and purchase some good AC like O General etc. Also shopkeeper had suggested me to not to purchase it but only due to name of Hitachi I have purchased. Wastage of money. Really I am totally frustrated. And Hitachi support has making money only by making fool.
