8. DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION & CIRCUIT OF MICOM
8-1 FUNCTION
8-1-1 Function
1. When Appliance is plugged in for first time, is set "3" for the refrigerator. You can adjust the refrigerator control temperature
by pressing the ADJUST button.
2. When the power is initially applied or restored a power failure, it is set at the last control temperature selected before the
power initially applied or restored a power failure.
8-1-2 Defrost Cycle
Defrosting starts each time the accumulated COMPRESSOR running time is between 7 and 50 hours. This time is
determinate by how long the doors are opened.
For initial power on or for restoring power, defrosting starts when the compressor running time reaches 4 hours.
Defrosting stops if the sensor temperature reaches 50 °F (10 °C) or more. If the sensor doesn't reach the 50 °F (10°C) in 1
hour, the defrost mode is malfunctioning. (Refer to the defect diagnosis function).
Defrosting won't function if the sensor if defective (wires are cut or short circuited)
8-1-3 Electrical Parts Operation in Sequence.
Electrical parts such as COMP, defrost heater, freezer FAN, etc. Operate in the following order to prevent noise and parts
damage. Several parts are started at the same time at initial power on and are turned off together when TEST is completed.
