BYPASS PLUG
Each unit has a bypass plug included with
the instruction guide. The bypass plug is
used to help troubleshoot the cabinet when
it is not cooling correctly. It allows you to
determine whether the problem lies within
the thermostat or the cooling unit itself. The
process of using this plug is as follows:
First, unplug unit from power outlet.
Disconnect the thermostat unit from the
cabinet by unscrewing the attachment
screws. When you pull the unit back, you’ll
notice it is connected by wires and a plug
unit. Disconnect the plug unit and plug in
the bypass plug. This will disable the
electronic controls and allow the unit to
work at maximum capacity. Let the unit run
for twenty-four hours and check it to see if
it is cooling.
If the unit is indeed cooling, then there is a
problem with the thermostat unit. If it is not
cooling down then the cooling unit requires
further troubleshooting and evaluation,
please contact Customer Service. If the
thermostat is operating incorrectly, contact
Customer Service for a replacement.
DOOR GASKET NOT SEALING CORRECTLY
If the cabinet’s cooling system is running continually
without reaching the desired temperature, the problem
may lie with the door gaskets not sealing correctly.
Examine the door gasket around the entire unit. You may
also note this by turning on the interior light and turning
off the lighting in the room. Determine if there is an area
which is not sealing properly. If a problem exists, use the
following guidelines to resolve the problem:
• Using a hair dryer, heat the gasket up while using your
fingers to pull the gasket outward. Doing this for several
minutes will loosen the gasket material and increase its
flexibility.
• Then close the door and determine if the magnetic strip
within the gasket will seal with the metal strip on the door.
• Repeat steps until gasket seals correctly. Once it has
reseated itself, leave the doors closed for two to three
hours.
The seal should retain the new shape after this process.
