How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the freezer before adjusting or testing the door switch.

  • Check door closure: Ensure nothing is obstructing the door and that shelves or baskets are not protruding.
  • Inspect door switch: Press the switch repeatedly and listen for the alarm to stop/start. Replace the door switch if it behaves erratically.
  • Clean gasket and frame: Dirt can prevent full closure; clean both surfaces.
  • Reset alarm: Use the alarm reset button if provided. If nuisance alarms persist, the main PCB may need calibration or replacement.
