Possible Causes

Dirty condenser coils, Poor ventilation around unit, Door gasket leak, Low refrigerant charge or weak compressor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before cleaning or accessing the rear components.

Steps to reduce run time:

  • Clean condenser: Remove dust and lint from the condenser coil with a brush and vacuum.
  • Improve ventilation: Ensure the cooler has the recommended clearance on all sides and is not installed in a closed cabinet without airflow.
  • Check door seal: Inspect and replace the door gasket if it does not seal properly.
  • Verify temperature setting: Avoid setting the temperature lower than necessary for wine storage.

Note: If the compressor still runs nearly nonstop after these steps and the interior temperature is still high, a sealed-system issue may be present and requires professional service.
