L1 or LO displayed, unit indicates low temperature or sensor reading error; ice may be too thick or machine may shut down.

Safety: Disconnect power before working inside the cabinet.

• Defrost ice buildup: If there is heavy ice accumulation around the evaporator and sensor, turn the unit off, remove the basket, and allow it to fully defrost. Use towels to catch meltwater.
• Inspect sensor placement: Ensure the evaporator NTC sensor is correctly attached and not embedded in thick ice or insulation.
• Check sensor wiring: Look for damaged insulation or crushed wires between the sensor and control board.
• Test sensor resistance: Measure the NTC sensor resistance at room temperature and compare to Baridi’s spec. Replace if readings are out of range.
• Control board: If a new sensor does not resolve L1, the control PCB may be misinterpreting the signal and should be replaced.
