ELECTRICAL CONTROL PRINCIPLE Electrical control principles of the refrigerator 8.1 Overview Electrical control principle of CFE/AFL/AFD refrigerators (1) Fully air cooling design, controlled with a fixed frequency compressor; (2) The temperature in the fridge storage compartment is controlled by controlling the air door with the fridge storage temperature sensor R;...
ELECTRICAL CONTROL PRINCIPLE 8.3 Control Principle of the Air Escaper (1) The refrigeration air door is controlled with the fridge storage temperature sensor R SNR. (2) The air door is closed from the beginning of defrosting until 15 minutes after the defrosting is finished.
TROUBLE SHOOTING Trouble Shooting Symptom: food in the fridge storage compartment is frozen Check: 1) Verify that the temperature in the fridge storage compartment is too low and the food is frozen there; 2) Remove the decoration piece of the refrigeration air-duct. Detach the 2 screws and take out the air door-foam assembly.
