Possible Causes

Blocked ventilation, Extremely dirty condenser coils, Failing condenser fan, High ambient room temperature

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Unplug before cleaning and moving the unit.

  • Improve airflow: Pull the Luma cooler away from walls and ensure recommended clearances on all sides.
  • Clean condenser: Remove the rear panel and thoroughly clean dust from the condenser coils and fan area.
  • Check condenser fan: Confirm the Luma condenser fan motor runs whenever the compressor is on. Replace if not operating.
  • Room temperature: Ensure the cooler is not installed in a very hot environment (e.g., garage in summer) beyond its rated ambient range.

Some warmth on the side walls is normal, but surfaces too hot to touch comfortably indicate a ventilation or fan problem.
