TROUBLESHOOTING
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
OPERATION
Power supply cord unplugged?
Plug into a
grounded 3 prong outlet.
Is outlet working?
Plug in a lamp to see if the outlet
is working.
Household fuse blown, or a circuit breaker tripped?
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit. If the problem
continues, call an electrician.
Are controls on?
Be sure that the beverage center
controls are on. Refer “Controls” section.
THE MOTOR SEEMS TO RUN TOO MUCH
Is the temperature outside hotter than normal?
Expect the motor to run longer under warm
conditions. At normal temperatures, expect your
motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under
warmer conditions, expect it to run even more of the
time.
Is the door opened often?
Expect the motor to run
longer when this occurs. In order to conserve energy,
try to get everything you need out of the Beverage
Center at once, keep food organized so it is easy
to find, and close the door as soon as the food is
removed.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions?
Refer “Controls” section.
Is the door closed completely?
Push the door firmly
shut. If it will not shut all the way, refer “The door will
not close completely” later in this section.
Are the condenser coils dirty?
This obstructs air
transfer and makes the motor work harder. Clean the
condenser coils. Refer “Cleaning” section.
TEMPERATURE AND MOISTURE
TEMPERATURE IS TOO WARM
Is the door opened often?
Be aware that the
Beverage Center will warm when this occurs. In
order to keep the Beverage Center cool, try to get
everything you need out of the Beverage Center at
once, keep beverage contents organized so it is easy
to find, and close the door as soon as the content is
removed.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions?
Refer “Controls” section.
Is the base grille blocked?
For best performance, do
not install the beverage center behind a cabinet door
or block the base grille.
THERE IS INTERIOR MOISTURE BUILDUP
Is the door opened often?
To avoid humidity
buildup, try to get everything you need out of the
Beverage Center at once, keep beverage contents
organized so it is easy to find, and close the door
as soon as the content is removed. When the door
is opened, humidity from the room air enters the
Beverage Center. The more often the door is opened,
the faster humidity builds up, especially when the
room itself is very humid.
Is it humid?
It is normal for moisture to build up
inside the beverage center when the air is humid.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions?
Refer “Controls” section.
DOOR
THE DOOR IS DIFFICULT TO OPEN
Are beverage contents blocking the door open?
Rearrange beverage contents so that they fit more
tightly and take up less space.
Are the shelves out of position?
Put the shelves
back into their correct positions. See “Beverage
Center Use” for more information.
Is the gasket dirty or sticky?
Clean the gasket and
the surface that it touches. Rub a thin coat of paraffin
wax on the gasket following cleaning.
THE DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY
Are the racks out of position
? Put the racks back
into their correct positions. Refer “Wine Racks”
section for more information.
Is the gasket sticking?
Clean the gasket and the
surface that it touches. Rub a thin coat of paraffin wax
on the gasket following cleaning.
