Wine cooler runs continuously but does not reach set temperature; interior is cool but not cold enough.

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before cleaning or adjusting components.

Steps to improve cooling:

• Clean condenser: Remove dust from the condenser coil at the rear using a soft brush and vacuum. This is one of the most common causes of poor cooling.
• Check condenser fan: Ensure the fan runs smoothly and at full speed when the compressor is on. Replace the Hoover-compatible condenser fan motor if it is slow, noisy, or intermittent.
• Inspect door gasket: Close the door on a sheet of paper and gently pull. If it slides out easily all around, the gasket may be worn or misaligned. Warm the gasket with a hairdryer (on low) and reshape, or replace the door gasket.
• Check installation: Ensure adequate ventilation space around the cooler and that it is not installed in a very hot environment beyond Hoover's specifications.
• Refrigerant check: If all above are correct and cooling is still weak, a partial refrigerant leak or internal restriction is likely. Contact a refrigeration technician for pressure testing and repair.
