Standard Protection Mechanisms
The cooling unit is programmed to shut down certain components to protect those
components, as well as the wine inside the cellar, under the following circumstances:
Scenario
What it means
What happens
P1 Alarm
Probe 1, which senses the
temperature inside the cellar
and controls the on/off cycles
of the cooling unit, has failed.
The cooling unit enters a
timed auto-cycle mode
until Probe 1 is repaired or
replaced. In this mode, the
cooling unit will turn on for
12 minutes and off for 8
minutes.
Scenario
What it means
What happens
HA2 Alarm P3 >
140° F
The condenser probe is
measuring temperatures that
are too hot.
The compressor and
condenser fan will turn
off until the condenser
temperature falls below
120°F.
Maintenance
The condenser coils at the back of the cooling unit will collect dust, dirt and lint
over time. It is critically important to clean (reusable filter) or replace (disposable
filter) the air filter periodically. If the condenser coils or filter become clogged,
the cooling unit will not have proper airflow and its performance and longevity
will be compromised.
The condenser filter slides out to the left or the right at the rear of the cooling
unit. Reusable filters can be cleaned with warm soapy water. The condenser
coils themselves also can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner – ideally with a
brush attachment to loosen dust caught between the fins.
