Vacation And Moving Care; Troubleshooting - KitchenAid KUBL204EPA Use & Care Manual

Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to
clean the condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.
Vacations
If you choose to turn the beverage center off before you leave,
follow these steps.
1. Remove all wine bottles from the beverage center.
2. Unplug the beverage center.
3. Clean the beverage center. See "Cleaning."
4. Tape a rubber or wood block to the top of the door to prop it
open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold
from building up.
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Your beverage center will not operate
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.
Is the Beverage Center Control in Control Off mode? See
"Using the Controls."
The motor seems to run too much
Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the
motor to run longer under warm conditions. At normal
temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of
the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even
more of the time.
Is the door opened often? Expect the motor to run longer
when this occurs. In order to conserve energy, try to get
everything you need out of the beverage center at once, keep
wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are easy to
find, and close the door as soon as the wine is removed.

center.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See "Using the Controls."
Is the door closed completely? Push the door firmly shut. If
it will not shut all the way, see "The door will not close
completely" later in this section.
Are the condenser coils dirty? This obstructs air transfer
and makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils.
See "Cleaning."
Temperature is too warm
Is the door opened often? Be aware that the beverage
center will warm when this occurs. In order to keep the
beverage center cool, try to get everything you need out of
the beverage center at once, keep wine bottles positioned
label side up so that they are easy to find, and close the door
as soon as the wine is removed.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See "Using the Controls."
Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not
install the beverage center behind a cabinet door or block the
base grille.
There is interior moisture buildup
Is the door opened often? To avoid humidity buildup, try to
get everything you need out of the beverage center at once,
keep wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are
easy to find, and close the door as soon as the wine is
removed. When the door is opened, humidity from the room
air enters the beverage center. The more often the door is
opened, the faster humidity builds up, especially when the
room itself is very humid.
Is it humid? It is normal for moisture to build up inside the
beverage center when the air is humid.

conditions? See "Using the Controls."
