These resources cover the most common and easily solvable issues. Note that operating sounds from a clock mechanism can be normal and depend on the environment. Sound alone is not considered a defect. A light lubricant application can be part of proper maintenance.
If the issue persists after following the guides, proceed with a return request in the portal.
