Wine cooler runs continuously and never reaches the set temperature; interior is cool but not cold enough.

Safety first: Do not attempt to open the sealed refrigeration system yourself. Only certified technicians should handle refrigerant.

Continuous running with inadequate cooling often indicates a refrigerant issue.

• Step 1 – Rule out airflow issues: Clean the condenser coil, verify condenser and evaporator fans are running, and ensure proper ventilation around the cabinet.
• Step 2 – Check frost pattern: With internal panels removed, observe the evaporator after 10–15 minutes of operation. A healthy system shows even frost across most of the coil; a low-charge system may show frost only near the capillary inlet.
• Step 3 – Listen to compressor: A compressor that runs quietly and continuously without cycling, combined with a weak frost pattern, suggests low refrigerant.
• Step 4 – Call a refrigeration technician: A professional can perform a leak check, repair any leaks, evacuate, and recharge the system to EuroCave specifications.
• Step 5 – Protect your wine: While awaiting service, monitor temperature with an independent thermometer and, if necessary, move valuable bottles to another properly controlled storage.
