General Control Error / EEPROM or Firmware Fault
H1
Display shows H1 and the cabinet temperature reading is extremely high or flashing.
High Temperature Alarm / Overtemperature Condition
H2
Display shows H2 and the cabinet temperature reading is extremely low or below expected range.
Low Temperature Alarm / Sensor Underrange
Hi
Display shows Hi instead of a temperature; cabinet is warm.
Temperature Above Display Range / Sensor Overrange
Lo
Display shows Lo instead of a temperature; cabinet feels very cold or sensor is not detected.
Temperature Below Display Range / Sensor Underrange
Symptom
Burning or electrical smell during operation.
Overheating Electrical Component
Symptom
Chemical or plastic smell from a new Climadiff wine cooler.
New Appliance Odor / Off-gassing
Symptom
Compressor runs continuously without cycling off; cabinet may be too cold or still not at setpoint.
Compressor Short Cycling Control / Thermostat Fault
Symptom
Condensation or water droplets forming on the inside of the glass door.
Door Condensation / High Humidity
Symptom
Display and buttons do not respond, but the unit continues to cool at last set temperature.
Unresponsive Control Panel
Symptom
Door does not close properly or pops open slightly after being shut.
Door Alignment / Hinge or Gasket Problem
Symptom
Door gasket is torn, hardened, or moldy, leading to poor sealing.
Door Gasket Deterioration
Symptom
Dual-zone Climadiff wine cooler shows large temperature difference between zones, but one zone does not respond to setpoint changes.
Single Zone Non-Responsive in Dual-Zone Unit
Symptom
Excessive frost or ice buildup on the rear wall or evaporator plate inside the wine cooler.
Frost Accumulation / Defrost Failure
Symptom
Interior fan runs constantly even when the compressor is off.
Fan Control / Continuous Fan Operation
Symptom
Interior light does not work, but cooling is normal.
Interior LED Lighting Failure
Symptom
Noticeable vibration transmitted to surrounding cabinetry or bottles clinking together.
Cabinet Vibration / Shelf Resonance
Symptom
Shelves difficult to slide or jam when pulling bottles out.
Shelf Rail / Guide Misalignment
Symptom
Strong musty or moldy odor inside the wine cooler.
Internal Odor / Microbial Growth
Symptom
Temperature displayed on the control panel does not match an independent thermometer inside the cabinet.
Temperature Calibration / Sensor Placement Issue
Symptom
Thermoelectric (Peltier) Climadiff wine cooler is very hot at the rear but only slightly cool inside.
Peltier Module Efficiency Loss
Symptom
Unit frequently turns on and off in short intervals (short cycling).
Short Cycling / Control Instability
Symptom
Unit trips the household circuit breaker or RCD when plugged in or when compressor starts.
Electrical Short / Ground Fault
Symptom
Water pooling at the bottom of the cabinet or leaking onto the floor in front of the wine cooler.
Water Leak / Drainage Problem
Symptom
Wine cooler cools but cannot reach the set temperature; it stops around 14–16°C even when set lower.
Insufficient Cooling Capacity
Symptom
Wine cooler does not power on at all; display is dark and no fans or compressor noise.
No Power / Power Supply Failure
Symptom
Wine cooler is excessively noisy; loud humming, rattling, or buzzing sounds during operation.
Excessive Noise / Vibration
Symptom
Wine cooler runs but does not cool; internal temperature stays close to room temperature.
Loss of Cooling / Refrigeration System Failure
