What should I do if the freezer stops working?

Check the power supply, then consult the troubleshooting section of this guide. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

Troubleshooting

Freezer is not cooling.

Check the power supply, ensure the unit is plugged in, and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Also, check the temperature setting.

Excessive ice buildup.

Ensure the door seals properly and that the door is not left open for extended periods. Consider defrosting the unit if the ice buildup is significant.

Check if the unit is level. Ensure that items inside are not touching the fan or other moving parts. If the noise persists, contact customer service.
