TROUBLESHOOTING

You can solve many common cooler problems easily, saving you the cost of a possible service call. Try the suggestion below to see if you can solve the problem before contacting Vinotemp at info@vinotemp.com.

SYMPTOM

Vibrations

Door will not close properly.

Fan is always running.

Unit does not operate—does not have power

Power is ON but the unit will not cool.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

Check to make sure the cooler is on a level surface.

The cooler is not on a level surface.

The racks are out of position.

A bottle in the cooler is too long.

The door gasket is dirty.

This is simply a function of the cooling system. The lower the setting, the more the fan will run. If the room is warmer than 90°F (32°C), it will run more.

The unit has been designed to run continuously when operating at the lower temperatures.

Check that unit is plugged into the wall socket.

Make sure the wall socket has power. If outlet is controlled by a wall switch, make sure switch is set to on. Test wall socket functionality by testing another electrical appliance in the power socket.

Make sure there are at least 3 to 5 bottles in the unit. When using the unit for the first time, it can take up to 24 hours to reach the desired temperature.

Make sure the cooling vents are not obstructed.

The room may be too hot. If the ambient room temperature is above 90°F (32°C), the unit can have difficulty chilling adequately and will not get below 51°F (11°C). Humidity does not affect the cooling ability of the unit.

To achieve accurate temperature control, the unit should not be used or operated in any of the following locations: o In a sunny place

o In a room with poor air circulation such as a garage near another heat-producing appliance such as a dishwasher, oven or refrigerator.

o With an outlet shared with a refrigerator, as the refrigerator will drain power from the unit.

o In a cabinet or closet.
