Why is the interior of the cooling unit not cool enough?

Question

Check the following points:

Perhaps the door no longer closes properly. You can check this by placing a switched-on torch in the interior, closing the door and looking in a darkened room to see if light is shining through at the edges. At the points where this is the case, check whether objects are preventing the door from closing. If necessary, remove these objects. If there were no objects in between and light still shines through individual spots, the rubber (seal) on the door may have warped. With e.g. an ordinary hair dryer (hair dryer), the rubber on the door can be carefully heated and thus brought back into shape.
The ambient temperature is also decisive for the cooling performance of the unit. For optimal cooling, the room temperature should be between 16°C and 43°C (for wine cooler between 16°C and 32°C). Choose a location for your unit that avoids direct sunlight and allows sufficient air to circulate behind the unit.
In addition, the cooling level of the unit can be adjusted to the ambient temperature.
Wine fridges do not get as cold as normal fridges. For example, when set for red wine, the appliance cools down to between 16°C and 32°C. You can find specific information on cooling of wine coolers here.
