prevent the drawer from fully closing. Make sure
the front legs are installed and slighting tilting
up the front of the unit.
The room’s ambient temperature may be higher
than 86°F (30°C). Provide ample ventilation or
additional cooling to the room or relocate the unit
to a larger space with lower ambient temperature.
The front and left side vents as well as the top
pan section may be installed in close proximity
to heat sources such as ovens, stoves, heaters
or direct sunlight. Relocate the unit away from
these sources.
The unit may be installed without clearance or
proper ventilation. Provide additional exhaust
vents and observe the clearance allowance
specified on page (3).

an open gap for warm air to enter and cold air
to escape. Keep all pans in their slots even

Troubleshooting Guide
The power cord may not be connected. Check
for proper connection. In cases of damage to the
power cord or plug, immediately mark the unit as
out of order until the damaged part is replaced.
The outlet may not be sending power or the
power supply breaker may be switched off.
Unplug the unit and contact a licensed electrician
for inspection and/or repairs.
The compressor operates continuously or for
prolonged periods.
The condenser coil may be clogged with dust,
grime or debris. Clean them following the
instructions on page (17).
The door, drawer or gaskets may not be sealing
properly. If the gasket is loose, reattach. Check
product placement in the cabinet as it may
prevent the drawer from fully closing. Make sure
the front legs are installed.
The evaporator coil may be blocked with ice.
Defrost it following the instructions on page (16).
Normally, evaporator coils will self-maintain with
automated defrost cycles. If the evaporator coil
ices up frequently, re-assess placement of food
items in the cabinet as it could obstruct cold
air circulation. Food items must not touch the
wall or floors of the cabinet and stay within the
boundaries of the drawer pan to prevent blockage
of air flow.
The room’s ambient temperature may be higher
than 86°F (30°C). Provide ample ventilation or
additional cooling to the room or relocate the unit
to a larger space with lower ambient temperature.
The front and left side vents as well as the top
pan section may be installed in close proximity
to heat sources such as ovens, stoves, heaters
or direct sunlight. Relocate the unit away from
these sources.
