Troubleshooting

Issues Possible Causes & Solutions
Will there be a freeze function when the power is off? According to lab testing data, at 77℉/25℃, it takes around 1 hour to heat up from -4℉/-20℃ to 32℉/0℃, around 1.8 hours from -4℉/-20℃ to 50 ℉/10℃, and around 3 hours from -4℉/-20℃ to 68℉/20℃.

Refrigerator does not work
  1. Check that the power is on.
  2. Check that the plug and socket are securely connected.
  3. Check if the fuse has been burnt. The fuse is located near the input socket.
  4. Check if the power source is malfunctioning.
  5. Frequent switching ON and OFF may cause delays in compressor startup.

Refrigerator compartments are too warm
  1. The top door is frequently opened.
  2. A large amount of warm or hot food has been stored recently. It's highly recommended not to store hot food in it.
  3. The refrigerator has been disconnected for a long period of time.

Food is frozen

The temperature was set too low.
There is a "water flow" noise coming from inside the refrigerator. It's a normal phenomenon, caused by the flow of refrigerant.
There are waterdrops around the refrigerator casing or door gap. It's a normal phenomenon. The moisture will condense water when it touches the cold surface of the refrigerator.
The compressor is slightly noisy when starting. It's a normal phenomenon. The noise will be reduced after the compressor is stabilized.
