TROUBLESHOOTING

You can solve many common beverage 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 POSSIBLE CAUSE

Door will not

close properly.

• The beverage cooler is not level.

• The shelves are out of position.

• The door was reversed and not properly installed.

• The door gasket is dirty.

Unit does not

operate—does

not have power

• 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.

Power is ON but

the unit will not

cool.

• 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.

• If the room temperature is above 90°F (32°C), the

unit 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 beverage

cooler.

o In a cabinet or closet.

• Make sure the cooling vents are not obstructed.

Fan is always

running.

• 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.

Vibrations • Check to make sure the beverage cooler is level.
