Wine cooler runs but does not get cold enough; temperature is consistently higher than the setpoint.

Safety: Unplug the unit before cleaning coils or removing panels.

• Clean condenser: Remove the rear grille or lower panel and gently brush and vacuum dust from the condenser coils. Ensure good airflow around the unit.
• Check condenser fan: Restore power briefly and confirm the condenser fan runs when the compressor is on. Replace the condenser fan motor if it does not run or is noisy.
• Inspect door gasket: Close the door on a sheet of paper and pull it out around the perimeter. If it slides out easily, the gasket may be leaking. Clean and warm the gasket to improve seal, or replace if torn or deformed.
• Load and placement: Avoid overpacking bottles and keep them from blocking interior air vents.
• Sealed system issues: If airflow and gasket are good but cooling is still weak, a refrigerant or compressor problem is likely. Contact a professional technician.
