SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please read the followings before servicing your wine storage

1. Check if an electric leakage occurs in the set.

2. To prevent electric shock, unplug prior to servicing.

3. In case of testing with power on, wear rubber gloves to prevent electric shock.

4. If you use any appliances, check regular current, voltage and capacity.

5. Don't touch metal products in cold freezer with wet hand. It may cause frostbite.

6. Prevent water flowing to electric elements in

mechanical parts.

7. When servicing evaporator part, wear cotton gloves without fail. It is to prevent wound by sharp fin of evaporator.

8. ADJUSTMENT

8.1 COOLING SYSTEM FAULTS HOW TO DIAGNOSE FAULTS

It should take approximately 3 hours to reach the lowest setting temperature of 5℃ for an empty unit (assuming ambient temp of 32 degrees centigrade and continuous operation). If not, check the compressor, cooling fans, controller, and sensors. If all these are working normally, there is probably a cooling system’s fault. HOW TO REPAIR THE DEFAULT 1. Check the compressor

Turn on the unit and check there is electricity current flowing to the compressor using a caliper type Amp meter, the current should be within 0.8 to 2 Amps. If the readings are not in this range, turn off and cut off the discharge pipe and suction pipe (See COMPRESSOR ROOM VIEW AND PARTS LIST) from the compressor, then turn the unit on again (in this case only run the compressor for a few minuets, so as to avoid the compressor absorb moist air) and recheck the current and if there is pressure at the outlet pipe. If the current reading is still out of range specified above and no pressure from the compressor outlet, replace the whole compressor.

2. Check the cooling system pipe work Carefully check the cooling system after verifying the compressor is working normally. Then follow the procedure

below. 1>. Then cut off process pipe and check the refrigerant. If there is not enough refrigerant, the fault of the refrigerant

system should be caused by the leaking. If the refrigerant is sufficient., it is probably jamed in the capillary. 2>.If the fault is on the cooling system,.

A. Infuse 0.8-1.5MP nitrogen by process pipe. test the leakage if the cooling system of the soldering point with the soap water. Check from the the soldering point arround the compressor, and if everything is ok, remove the air-duct board and check the soldering point around evaporator. please see the remove method and the procedure as “6.3 REPLACING THE EVAPORATOR, PTC HEATER, CONTROL PCB,FAN MOTORS & SENSORS”.

B. Make sure the cooling system of the soldering point is normally, Then cut off the capilary around the dry filter,and infuse 0.8-1MP nitrogen by process pipe, and please put the hand close to the cut kerf of the capilary. If there is a little gas leak form the terminal, it means normal, or it is jamed.

C. If all the soldering point is not leaking and the capillary isn’t jamed, there are two possibility, one is leakage in the inner condenser, another is the damage on the parts（such as evaporator,condenser and so on） in the cooling system. If it is the inner damage, it can not be repaired, and if the damage on the parts, replace them.

3>. Make sure that there is not leakage in the cooling system, refill the refrigerant. 3. Refill the refrigerant:

1>. Using the vacuum pump form a vacuum in the system, via the joint of the low-pressure process pipe on the compressor , the high-pressure pipeline is on the process pipe of the filter. Apply the vacuum pump for approximately 20 minutes. Until the vacuum is lower than 100Pa. Then solder the compressor process pipe of the filter. Keep the vacuum running while soldering this joint

2>.Fill Cooling system with refrigerant via the process pipe. (The refrigerant is R134a. Regarding refrigerant quantity Please refer to the instruction at back label of wine cellar). Then solder the compressor process pipe after the system is charged with refrigerant.

8.2 PTC HEATER FAULTS HOW TO DIAGNOSE FAULTS

If the temperature of refrigeration compartment is 2℃ lower than setting temperature for an empty unit (assuming ambient temp of over 0 degrees centigrade and continuous operation and normal temperature of the freezing compartment), the heater fan and PTC should run normally,otherwise check the heater fan and PTC heater. If both are working normally, there is probably a heating system fault.

HOW TO REPAIR THE DEFAULT

1. How to check the heater fan. If the temperature of refrigeration compartment is lower than set temperature but heater fan does not function, after



13

verifying no bad connections replace the fan unit . 2. How to check the PTC heater

Check the resistance of PTC heater using a Multimeter; the reading should be approx 1.5 KΩ (assuming normal temperature), if open circuits Replace the PTC heater having once verified the connections to the PTC heater.Replace new one.

3. If no fault in the fan or PTC heater, replace the main PCB,

8.3 NOISE OF WINE COOLER COMPRESSOR NOISE

1. The working of motor and piston motion will cause noise when compressor working. So if noise is steady and not exceeds 42 dB, it’s normal. If noise is not steady or very high, it’s compressor fault and it should be repaired or replaced.

2. If compressor’s shock absorption rubber is hardening or damaged, or fixing screw of compressor is too tight or loose, it will cause noise. The settlement is to change new shock absorption rubber or adjust fixing screws.

FAN NOISE 1. When the fans are running , the vanes are circumrotating rapidly and the air flows, which will cause steady and

standard noise. The noise should not exceed 32dB and it is normal. 2. If the noise is extremely high and abnormal, the cause maybe as below

a. The axis of the fan is broken b. The fan is broken and lost balance

REFRIGERANT JET NOISE

COMPLAINT: If here is intermittent noise like a water spray from the capillary. CAUSE: The end of the capillary in the evaporator is in the wrong position, or there are rough edges on the end of

the capillary REMEDY: 1>. Heat the soldered joint of the capillary (“A” of Fig.8), then remove the capillary from the evaporator and smooth

the end with an eraser. (Caution: do not allow any particles into capillary unit) 2>. Replace the capillary into the evaporator, then solder it back into the correct position (not exceeding 15mm in

the evaporator) and pack the joint with anti vibration compound 3>. Recharge with refrigerant.

CAPILLARY VIBRATION NOISE

COMPLAINT: high frequency impact noise in capillary Zone. CAUSE:

1>. The capillary being insert too deep into the evaporator, so when the refrigerant is Jetting, the end of vibrating capillary will hit the inside of the evaporator.

2>. Vibration from the capillary touching the inside of the cabinet or air duct board, then when refrigerant is jetting. REMEDY:

1>. If the capillary is inserted too deep, heat it with the solder, solder it again(Please noted, the deep inserted is not bigger than 15mm), and vacuumize it and add the refrigerant.

2>. If the capillary touch the inner cabinet and the air duct panel, adjust the position of the capillary and add the incabloc plastic.

OIL JAMMED NOISE

COMPLAINT: intermittent and deep jet noise coming from inside of the capillary. CAUSE: Compressor oil flowing into the cooling system pipe work because of wine cooler lean during

transportation, and the jetting oil in the capillary cause noise. REMEDY:Clean the cooling system pipe, and recharge with refrigerant

8.4 EVAPORATOR FREEZING

CAUSE:The gasket is not air-proof, or the door is not closed well, cause much water fill in the the cabinet, and the water got frozen when it encounter the cold air, sometimes the ice is too thick, and it will block the fan or broken the fan.



14

REMEDY: 1>. Replace the door gasket or close the door well. If the door gasket is slightly not air-proof, it can be repaired

by the heat dryer.Aiming at the distortion of the gasket with the heat dryer, and move up and down until it expand to the normal state. When it is cool, check it with the door closed, if there is any distortion, dry it again until it fix for the door.

2 >.If the fan is Jamed seriously or breacken, replace it with the new fan.
