How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before cleaning the condenser or accessing fans.

1. Check loading and airflow:
- Ensure bottles are not blocking interior air vents.
- Avoid overpacking; leave space for air circulation.
2. Clean condenser:
- Access the condenser at the rear or front base and clean thoroughly.
3. Verify condenser fan operation:
- With power restored, confirm the fan runs when the compressor is on.
- If not, replace the condenser fan motor.
4. Inspect door gasket:
- Look for gaps or damage; replace gasket if it does not seal all around.
5. Check for ice on evaporator:
- Remove interior rear panel; if the evaporator is heavily iced, defrost the unit completely and investigate defrost system faults (heater/sensor).
