8.1 Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause	Possible Solution
The compressor does not work.	• Mains plug s not connected in the mains socket.	Connect the mains plug.
The appliance runs frequently or for a too long period of time.	• The indoor or outdoor tempera­ ture is too high. The appliance has been off power for a period of time. The door of the appliance is not tightly closed. • The door has been opened too frequently or for too long. The temperature settings too low. • The door gaskets dirty. worn cracked or mis-matched. The required air circulation s not guaranteed. The interior s covered in ice.	· In this case. it is normal for the appliance to run longer. Normally it takes 8 to 12 hours for the appliance to cool down completely. · Close the door and ensure the appliance is ocated on a level ground and there is no food or container jarring the door. · Do not open the door too fre­ quently. Set the temperature higher un­ til a satisfactory temperature is obtained. It takes 24 hours for the temperature to become stable. · Clean the door gasket or re­ place them by the customer service. Ensure adequate ventilation. Defrost the appliance.
The appliance makes abnormal sounds.	• The appliance s not located on level ground. The appliance touches an object close to it. The appliance stands on a wooden floor or near wooden walls.	Level the appliance. Remove objects around the appliance. Wood amplifies the sound. Set the appliance somewhere else.
