  • Organize contents: Avoid blocking air outlets and inlets with bottles.
  • Ambient stability: Avoid placing the cooler near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
  • Sensor replacement: If cycling remains abnormal, replace the "Cabinet NTC temperature sensor" and, if needed, the "Main control board (PCB)".
