Loud Noise
NOTE: If the unit continues to have issues and you cannot solve the troubles according to the above-mentioned
troubleshooting information or guidelines, please contact an authorized service agent. Do not handle it yourself
unless you are a trained and licensed refrigeration technician.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING:
1. To save energy, keep the door closed as much as possible. Do not open the door frequently or leave it open for
extended periods of time. This will conserve energy and preserve the quality of the food in the cabinet.
2. Never place heavy or hot items on the top of the freezer to avoid damage to the appliance.
3. Turn OFF the power before cleaning.
4. To clean the freezer, use a soft cloth with mild detergent and hot water.
5. Use warm water to clean the magnetic gasket in order to maintain its elasticity. Apply some talcum powder to it to
prolong its service life. If the gasket is damaged, replace it immediately.
6. The freezer should not be left unused for a long time. To stop using the freezer and to store it, safely disconnect the
main power first, then clean the inside and leave the door open for 2-3 days with an open box of baking soda in the
cabinet. Make sure the inside of the cabinet is dry before storing.
7. To return the freezer to use, clean the inside cabinet with a sanitizing solution. Wipe thoroughly with a damp cloth.
Allow the unit to air dry, leaving the door open for 2-3 days.
CLEANING THE CONDENSER (Related Warranty Information)
• Condensers will accumulate dirt and require cleaning every 30 days.
• Dirty condensers result in compressor failure, product loss, and lost sales, which are not covered by warranty.
• If you keep the Condenser clean you will minimize your service expense and lower your electrical costs.
• The Condenser requires scheduled cleaning every thirty days or as needed.
• Air is pulled through the Condenser continuously, along with dust, lint, grease, etc.
• A dirty Condenser can result in voiding the unit's warranty coverage, as well as, compressor failure, product loss
and loss of product sales.
• Proper cleaning involves removing dust from the Condenser. By using a soft brush, or vacuuming the Condenser
with a shop vac, or using CO2, nitrogen, or pressurized air.
• If you cannot remove the dirt adequately, please call our technical service number and we will refer you to local
companies.
• On most of the units the condenser is accessible in the rear of the unit. You may need to remove the cabinet grill to
expose the refrigeration system and piping network.
• The Condenser looks like a group of vertical fins. You need to be able to see through the condenser for the unit to
function at maximum capacity. Do not place filter material in front of condensing coil. This material blocks
air-flow to the coil similar to having a dirty coil.
