Quick Troubleshooting Guide
Check these items before calling for service
PROBLEM:
POSSIBLE CAUSE / SOULTIONS:
Unit does not run
Electrical circuit is not 110‐120V 60Hz.
The power cord is not plugged in.
No power at electrical outlet. Check to make sure breaker is
not tripped or fuse is not blown. Additionally, make sure unit
is not plugged into a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
type of outlet.
Unit does not maintain at the
proper temperature
Check the room temperature. We recommend the
refrigerator or freezer should be placed in the air conditioned
room between 65°F to 85°F. If the room temp is too warm,
the refrigerator or freezer may not be able to maintain the
interior temp at proper range.
Door is not closed properly.
Amount of stored product is overloaded.
Product replacements are pushed against rear wall or
interrupted the proper refrigerator air circulation. For the
proper air circulation, place the products evenly on each
shelf. Do not push against the refrigerator’s rear or side
walls.
Evaporator is blocked by frost or ice. Remove the products,
unplug the refrigerator or freezer power, and allow the unit
to defrost. If the problem still exists, call for service.

rd
party thermometer is placed incorrectly. For proper
temperature monitoring, the thermometer should be place in
the middle of refrigerator.
PLEASE NOTE! Prior to shipment, each refrigerator and freezer has
been calibrated and tested at proper temperature range.
Appliance runs too long
Prolong door openings.
Control set too cold.
Room temperature is high which will make the unit work
harder to keep cool.
Temperature of external wall
surface is warm
The exterior walls can be as much as 30 degrees warmer than
room temperature due to the embedded condenser coils.
This is normal when the unit is operating.
