Possible Causes

Dirty condenser coils, Blocked ventilation grills, Door gasket leaking warm air, Overloaded with bottles blocking airflow

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before cleaning the condenser or moving the appliance.

Steps:

  • Improve ventilation: Ensure the Bosch wine cooler has the clearances specified in the installation manual. Do not block front or rear grills.
  • Clean condenser: Remove dust and lint from the condenser coils with a soft brush and vacuum.
  • Check door gasket: Close the door on a sheet of paper and pull it out. If it slides easily, the gasket may not be sealing. Inspect for tears or warping and replace if needed.
  • Reorganize bottles: Avoid stacking bottles tightly against the rear wall or air outlets. Maintain space for air circulation.
  • Monitor temperature: After adjustments, allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize.
