Out of Service for a Long Time:
Remove all bottles from the appliance, unplug the appliance, thoroughly clean the inside and outside of the appliance, and store the appliance properly. If the appliance is disconnected or if there is a power cut, you must wait at least five minutes before re-starting.
Moving the Appliance:
- Cut off the power supply and unplug the appliance.
- Remove all bottles from the appliance.
- When moving the appliance, do not lean the appliance over 45°.
Troubleshooting:
The manual provides a comprehensive troubleshooting guide for common issues:
- Appliance makes lots of noise: Adjust the front foot, keep the appliance leveling, and keep the appliance a bit space from walls.
- Liquid flowing sound inside the cabinet: It is normal because of the refrigerant working inside.
- Appliance does not start: Make sure the appliance is connected to the power properly, make sure the switch is on, and the compressor re-starts after 5 minutes for a power cut.
- Compressor runs continuously: If no cold is being produced, call the retailer's after-sale service.
- Door does not seal tightly: After long time use, the door seal might get stiff & distorted partially. Heat the door seal with hot-wind blower or hot towel. The door seal gets softened and closes the door.
- Appliance does not cool sufficiently: Adjust temperature setting, keep the appliance away from sunlight or heat, and do not open the door frequently.
- Unpleasant smells inside cabinet: A little bit plastic smell for newly-buy appliance is normal and will disappear after a short time. Clean the compartment and ventilate it for a few hours.
- Condensate on the glass door a short time: Do not open the door frequently or for a long time. Do not set the temperature too low. High ambient temperature and humidity would cause condensate.
- The light is not working: Check the power supply first. Call the retailer's after-sale service if the light is broken.
Remarks:
- The net weight includes shelves and the Unit dimension is without handle on the door.
