■Working principle
This refrigerator holds a Automatic Defrost System，monitored by mechanical control，This system is
constituted of the following components：
·Defrost Timer
·Defrost Thermostat
·Thermal Fuse
·Defrost Heater
The defrost frequency is defined by the mechanical control throughout the following：
Defrost can occur by the Compressor accumulated working T1 hrs，the internal contacts of Defrost
Timer put through defrost circuit and the Defrost Heater start to heating . So that the surface of the
evaporator temperature goes up and reaches the setting temperature of the Defrost Thermostat（the
setting temperature around 6℃），the Defrost Thermostat acts immediately，and the Defrost Heater will
stop heating. The compressor will start again after the delay time of T2 minutes by the Defrost Timer. So
goes on next defrost cycle.
There are two circuit protection for the Defrost circuit. One is by the action of the Defrost Thermostat，the
other is by the two Thermal uses. If the Defrost Thermostat fails to cut off the power of the Defrost Heater，

7
and the surface temperature of evaporator continues go up ,when it reaches the setting value of the
Thermal Fuse，around 72℃，Thermal Fuse fusing will open and until disconnect the defrost circuit to
protect the safety of the refrigerator.
Note:
T1 means the accumulated working time of the Defrost Timer(12 hours)
T2 means the recovery time for the Defrost Timer(10 minutes)
T1&T2 are the parameters of the Defrost Timer
■TROUBLESHOOTING

5.5 Does the tube of the refrigeration system bump each other?
5.6 The noise sound likes Water flow inside the refrigerator ,in fact ,it is normal,
which is caused both when refrigerator start and shut-down; in addition,
frost-dissolving causes this sound, too, which is a normal phenomenon.
5.7 There will be a cracking sound in the cabinet ,when the cabinet or cabinet
accessory contracting or expanding, this sound will be made, which is normal.
5.8 The motor operation sound in the compressor is appears to be louder at night
or begin starting. which is a normal phenomenon; also the uneven placing would
lead to too much running noise.
There is a peculiar
smell in the units
6.1 Is the food with special smell sealed tight?
6.2 Does it have long time storing food or degenerated food?
6.3 Whether the internal cabinet needs cleaning.
the forefront or the
middle cabinet heats 7.1 As fridge Anti-condensation tube is placed here and caused the above phenomenon, which is normal.
Refrigerator’s two
sides or the back
heat
8.1 As condensation tube is placed here and caused the above phenomenon,
which is normal.
the cabinet surface
condensation 9.1 Air humidity is too large.
◆The solution for the common problem.
1.Cooling is not enough good
(Many reasons might cause that cooling not enough good, as blow :)
Reason analysis Solutions
1) Leakage of Gas
If some gas leaked unit will work not well.
Phenomenon of failure:
a. lower pressure of liquid cycle system
b. high temperature of copper tube of
discharging gas, hand feels very hot.
C. much noise, sounds like “ZZZZZ”, comes
from outlet of capillary.
d. the temperature fell down very slowly.
First find out the point of leaking
on tube, and then sealed it,
vacuuming it, finally recharge with
Gas.
Note:
If you find oil on somewhere, it is
possible that leakage point is
there.
2) The quantity of
Gas is too much
If too much Gas was charged into the cycle
system, the extra gas will occupy some
space of evaporator, so that the area of heat
exchange becomes less, unit will work not
well.
Phenomenon of failure:
a, higher pressure of liquid cycle system
than norm.
b, higher temperature of condenser.
c, larger electric current of compressor
d, there maybe ice on the suction tube.
First stop unit for several minutes,
and then open charging tube,
discharge all of gas. Change a
new filter, and then recharge gas,
finally sealed the system.

9
e, when gas is too much, some gas liquid
might goes back into compressor,
compressor will be damaged by liquid.
3) There is air in the
liquid cycle system
The air in system will cause lower efficiency
of cooling.
Phenomenon of failure:
a, higher pressure of liquid cycle system
than norm, but the pressure is not over the
limit.
b, higher temperature of discharging tube.
C, much noise
First stop unit for several minutes,
and then open charging tube,
discharge all of gas. Change a
new filter, and then recharge gas,
finally sealed the system.
4)Low working
efficiency of
compressor
General when a compressor works for many
years, some parts of compressor were wear,
so that compressor discharge less gas out,
unit does not work strongly.
Phenomenon of failure:
a, lower pressure of discharging, check the
pressure of system with pressure meter to
see if it is normal.
b, higher temperature of compressor
surface.
C, cut off the discharging tube, to see if you
can block the gas coming out of the tube
when compressor is working.
Change a new compressor.
5) There is something
that blocked the liquid
cycle system
Some time there is something blocked the
filter of liquid cycle system, so that unit is not
cold.
Phenomenon of failure:
a, lower pressure of discharging
b, lower temperature of discharging.
Change a new filter
2.NO COOL
(Popular failure reasons are below):
Reason analysis Solutions:
1) Leakage of gas
Phenomenon of failure:
a, leaking fast
b, leaking slowly
c, no voice of liquid flowing
d, cut off charging tube, no gas
goes out.
First find out the point of leaking on tube,
and then sealed it, vacuuming it, finally
recharge with gas.
Note：
If you find oil on somewhere, it is possible
that leakage point is there.
2)There is some thing
that blocked the liquid
cycle system A,Ice blocking
Sometime because unknown
reason water comes into liquid
cycle system, the capillary will be
blocked by water after unit runs for
period of time.
Phenomenon of failure:
First stop unit for several minutes, and then
open charging tube, discharge all of gas.
Blow the cycle system with gas of nitrogen,
and then recharge Gas, finally sealed the
system.

10
The unit works well in the
inception, after period of time the
ice appears in the capillary and
becomes more and more, till
blocks the hole of capillary
completely. In the moment you
can find the ice on the evaporator
defrosts. The noise of liquid flow
disappears. The pressure of
absorbing becomes negative.
The phenomenon above will
appear again and again.
The way to check ice blocking:
Warm the capillary with a hot
towel, after a while the ice in the
capillary melt, you can hear a
sound of gas flow comes from the
capillary abruptly. The pressure of
absorbing becomes higher. It is
Ice blocking.
B, there is offal block the capillary
Phenomenon of failure:
If the capillary is blocked by
something such as offal etc., the
sound of liquid flow disappears.
The ice on the evaporator defrosts
The pressure of absorbing
becomes negative.
Higher temperature of discharging
tube
The way to check offal blocking:
If you warm capillary with the way
of checking ice blocking, there is
no change. It must be offal
blocking.
First stop unit for several minutes, and then
open charging tube, discharge all of gas.
Blow the cycle system with gas of nitrogen.
Change a new capillary and filter, and then
recharge Gas, finally sealed the system.
COMPRESSOR NEVER STOPS：
Reason Solutions
1)The setting temperature is not reasonable. Readjust the temperature setting.
2) the sensor is bad. Replace the sensor.
3)Seal of door is damaged. Replace the gasket
4)Too much food in the refrigerator Please put the food properly.
5)Wind door is broken. Replace wind door.
6)Fan motor is broken. Replace fan motor
