How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Ensure the unit is unplugged before adjusting panels.

  • 1. Check bin door/lid: Inspect the gasket for tears or deformation. Replace if it does not seal evenly.
  • 2. Inspect cabinet alignment: Ensure the bin is fully inserted and the cabinet is not twisted from improper leveling.
  • 3. Redirect airflow: Confirm that hot condenser air is not being recirculated into the bin area due to blocked vents or improper installation.
  • 4. Improve room conditions: Lower the ambient temperature if possible and keep the unit away from heat sources.
