Most common problems can be resolved by referring to the troubleshooting suggestions listed below. 

 

PROBLEM 

POSSIBLE CAUSE 

SOLUTIONS 

The appliance does 
not operate.

 

There is a power failure. 
The appliance is not plugged in. 
 
A house fuse has blown or the circuit breaker 
is tripped.

 

Ensure the appliance is plugged in 
and the power outlet has power. 
 
Replace the broken fuse or reset the 
breaker. 

The appliance is not 
cold enough. 

The set temperature is too high. 
The appliance is placed too close to a heat 
source. 
 
 
The door is opened too often. 
The door is not closed completely. 
 
 
The door gasket does not seal properly. 

Turn the temperature dial to colder 
setting. 
Keep the appliance away from 
sunshine or other heat sources. 
 
Close the door tightly and do not open 
the door too frequently or for a long 
period of time. 
 
Ensure the door gasket is not loose. 

The appliance turns 
on and off frequently.

 

The ambient temperature is too low or high. 
 
 
A large amount of contents has been added to 
the appliance. 
 
 
The door is opened too often. 
The door is not closed completely. 
 
The door gasket does not seal properly. 

Decrease or increase the ambient 
temperature. 
 
To minimize internal temperature 
fluctuation, do not add large amount of 
contents at once. 
 
Close the door tightly and do not open 
the door too frequently. 
 
Ensure the door gasket is not loose. 

The appliance 
makes too much 
noise.

 

The noise may come from the flow of the 
refrigerant. 
 
 
 
Contraction and expansion of the inside walls 
may cause popping and crackling noises. 
 
 
 
 
The appliance is not level. 

It is normal that as each cooling cycle 
ends, you may hear gurgling sounds 
caused by the flow of refrigerant in the 
appliance. 
 
Some popping or cracking noises are 
normal. They are caused by 
temperature changes. 
 
Make sure the cooler is on a hard and 
level surface. Do not place the 
appliance on carpet. 

The door does not 
close properly.

 

The appliance is not level. 
 
 
 
 
The shelves are out of position. 

Make sure the cooler is on a hard and 
level surface. Avoid placing the 
appliance on a carpeted or soft 
surface. 
 
Correctly install the shelves. 

Condensation builds 
up on the glass door. 

Ambient temperature or humidity is high. 

Lower the room humidity by a 
dehumidifier or air conditioner.
