TROUBLESHOOTING
Before Calling for Service
Cooling
Problem
Possible Cause & Solution
Refrigerator is not
cooling or has no
power.
A fuse in your home may be blown or the circuit breaker tripped. Or the appliance is
connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet, and the outlet's circuit
breaker has tripped.
• Check the main electrical box and replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Do not
increase fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified
electrician.
• Reset the circuit breaker on the GFCI. If the problem persists, contact an electrician.
The refrigerator control is set to OFF (some models).
• Turn the control ON. Refer to the Storing Wine section for proper temperature settings.
Refrigerator is set to Display Mode.
• Display Mode allows the lights and control display to work normally while disabling
cooling, to save energy while the refrigerator is on the showroom floor. See the FAQs
section of this manual for instructions on how to disable Display Mode.
Refrigerator was recently installed.
• It may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to reach the desired temperature.
Refrigerator was recently relocated.
• If the refrigerator was stored for a long period of time or moved on its side, it is necessary
for the refrigerator to stand upright for 24 hours before connecting it to power.
Cooling system runs
too much.
Refrigerator is replacing an older model.
• Modern refrigerators require more operating time but use less energy due to more
efficient technology.
Refrigerator was recently plugged in or power restored.
• The refrigerator will take up to 24 hours to cool completely.
The door is opened often or many wine bottles were added.
• Adding wine bottles and opening the door warms the refrigerator, requiring the
compressor to run longer in order to cool the refrigerator back down. In order to conserve
energy, try to get everything you need out of the refrigerator at once, keep wine bottles
organized so they are easy to find, and close the door as soon as the wine bottle is
removed. (Refer to the Storing Wine section.)
Doors are not closed completely.
• Firmly push the doors shut. If they will not shut all the way, the "Doors will not close
correctly or pop open" section in Troubleshooting.
Refrigerator is installed in a hot location.
• The compressor will run longer under warm conditions. At normal room temperatures (70
°F or 21 °C) expect your compressor to run about 40 % to 80 % of the time. Under warmer
conditions, expect it to run even more often. The refrigerator should not be operated
above 100 °F (38 °C).
