Question

Why are the outer walls of the cooling unit too warm?

 


Answer

Every unit radiates a certain amount of heat during operation. At high ambient temperatures (above 43°C) or when the unit is running at maximum power for a long time, the temperature on the outer walls can increase.

To prevent this, the following steps can help:

  • Do not leave the door open for too long, otherwise the unit will constantly cool down and thus run at full power.
  • Perhaps the door no longer closes properly. You can check this by putting 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. In the places where this is the case, check whether objects are preventing the door from closing. If necessary, remove the objects. If there were no objects in between and light is still shining through in some places, then the rubber (seal) on the door may have warped. The rubber on the door can be carefully warmed up with an ordinary hairdryer, for example, to bring it back into shape.
  • Do not cover your appliance (e.g. with a blanket) and avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or placing it next to an appliance that generates a lot of heat (e.g. an oven).
