TROUBLESHOOTING

If the unit malfunctions, check out the following before calling for service.

Malfunction

Check/Remedy

The freezer does not run

Ŷ The power cord is not connected to the proper outlet.

 

Ŷ The power source does not have enough capacity.

 

Ŷ The power failure is occurred.

 

Ŷ The circuit breaker of power source is active.

 

Ŷ The fuse is blown.

 

Note:

 

Move the freezer contents to another freezer if the chamber temperature

 

raise due to the freezer failure.

The alarm device is active

<at the start-up>

 

Ŷ The chamber temperature deviates from the set temperature.

 

<during use>

 

Ŷ The set temperature was changed.

 

Ŷ The door was kept opened for long period.

 

Ŷ The high temperature load was stored in the chamber.

 

In above cases, the alarm is stopped automatically after certain time.

The cooling is poor

Ŷ You put too many articles of high temperature in the chamber.

 

Ŷ Too much frost is in the chamber.

 

Ŷ The door is opened/closed frequently.

 

Ŷ The set temperature is not appropriate.

 

Ŷ The freezer is in the direct sunlight.

 

Ŷ The freezer is not installed properly.

There is condensation

Ŷ The condensation can be found outside the freezer depending on the

outside the freezer

installation site, or under muggy environment. The condensation is

 

caused by the humidity not by freezer failure.

 

Wipe off the condensation with a dry cloth.

Noise

Ŷ The freezer is not installed on the sturdy floor.

 

Ŷ The freezer is not leveled with the leveling feet.

 

Ŷ There is anything touching the frame.

 

Ŷ The freezer is in the status immediately after start up.

 

The unit sometimes causes a noise when the chamber temperature is

 

high due to the large load. The noise gets less and less accompanying

 

with the cooling of the chamber.

Note:

 

If the malfunction is not eliminated after checking the above items, or the malfunction is not shown in the above table, contact Sanyo sales representative or agent.

CAUTION

The noise of refrigerant flow may be heard due to the characteristic of refrigerating circuit. Especially for several hours after start-up, the noise of motor compressor or refrigerant flow can be larger. But such noise does not mean malfunction nor failure.
