Trouble-Shooting Guide
.
Sometimes you may come across minor problems
that in most cases do not require a service call
and can be easily eliminated. The problem may
have resulted from improper handling and / or
installation of the appliance. Please refer to the
below trouble-shooting guide to assist you in
identifying the possible cause and solution to your
problem. Should the problem still persist after
completing these checkpoints, please contact our
Customer Support Dept. by visiting our website at
www.magicchef-ewave.com or at (888)-775-0202.

.
sag, the gasket may be contaminated or damaged).
Perhaps you may have overloaded the appliance.

Ice Formation on the Inner
Rear Wall
As long as the defrost water runs to the
channel and through the outlet to the drain
pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting
of the appliance is assured.
In case the ice formation on the inner back
wall is increased (1/8-1/5in.), ice should be
manually defrosted.
Disconnect the power supply, leave the door
open and defrost the ice. Never
use electric devices for defrosting and do
not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp
objects.
After defrosting is complete, close the door,
connect the power supply and set the
temperature as desired. The cause of increased
ice formation may be one of the following:
_
the door does not seal well (clean the
gasket if it is contaminated, or replace it if
it is damaged);
_
the door is frequently opened or left open for
extended periods of time.
_
the contents stored in the appliance are warm;
_
the contents are touching the inner back
wall.
