of dust/oil stains, after a period of time, a large amount of
dust will accumulate on the condenser fins, which will
affect the cooling effect.
Move the refrigerator to a place with less dust, regularly check the dust
accumulation status, and clean it with a blower.
The condenser fan stops working or operates at low
speed
Ask the technician to check whether there is a standard voltage on the fan
terminal when turning on the power. If the voltage is abnormal, please check
the switching power supply or the motherboard or circuit failure. If the voltage
is normal, the fan may be damaged, please replace with a new fan.
