2. Unplug the Beverage Center.
3. Clean the Beverage Center. See “Cleaning”.

everything back and refer to the “Installation Instructions”
section for preparation instructions.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Your Beverage Center will not operate
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 turned to the OFF
position? See “Using the Control”.
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 outdoor 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.
Has a large amount of food just been added to the
Beverage Center? Adding a large amount of food warms
the Beverage Center. It is normal for the motor to run longer
in order to cool the Beverage Center back down.
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 food organized so it is easy to nd, and close the door
as soon as the food is removed.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See “Using the Control”.
Is the door closed completely? Push the door rmly 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 food organized so it
is easy to nd, and close the door as soon as the food is
removed.
Has a large amount of food just been added to the
Beverage Center? Adding a large amount of food warms
the Beverage Center. It can take several hours for the
Beverage Center to return to the normal temperature.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See “Using the Control”.
Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not
install the Beverage Center behind a cabinet door or block
the base grille.
The door is difcult to open
Is the gasket dirty or sticky? Clean the gasket and the
surface that it touches. Rub a thin coat of parafn wax on
the gasket following cleaning.
The door will not close completely
Are food packages blocking the door open?
Rearrange containers so that they t more tightly and take
up less space.
Are the shelves out of position? Put the shelves back into
their correct positions. See “Beverage Center Use” for more
information.
