SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please read the following instructions before servicing your refrigerator.

1.Check the refrigerator for electrical faults.

2.To prevent electric shock, unplug before servicing.

3.Always check line voltage and amperage.

4.Use standard electrical components or cause your skin to freeze and stick to the surfaces inside the freezer.

5.Don´t touch metal poducts in the freezer with wet hands. This may cause frostbite.

6.Prevent water from spiling onto electric elements or the machine parts.

7.Close the top door before opening the bottom door. Otherwise, you might hit your head when you stand up.

8.When tilting the refrigerator, remove any materials on the refrigerator, especially the glass shelves and stored food.

9.When servicing the evaporator, wear cotton gloves. This is to prevent injuries from the sharp evaporator fins.

10.Service on the refrigerator should be performed by a qualified technician. Sealed system repair must be perdormed by a CFC certified technician.

3-4 DEFROST CONTROL ASSEMBLY

Defrost Control assembly consists of Defrost Sensor and FUSE–M.

Defrost sensor functions to defrost automatically. It is attached to metal side of the Evaporator and senses Temperature. At the temperature of 162°F(72°C), it stops the emission of heat from the Heater.

Fuse-M is a safety device for preventing over-heating of the Heater when defrosting.

1.Pull out the grille assembly. (Figure 6)

2.Separate the connector of the Defrost Control assembly and replace the Defrost Control assembly after cutting the Tie Wrap. (Figure 7)

4-1 COMPRESSOR
4-1-1 Role

4. COMPRESSOR ELECTRICAL

4-2-4 Role of Combo TSD

(1) The combo is attached to the sealed compressor and is used for the operation and protect the motor.

The compressor intakes low temperature and low pressure gas (2) The compressor is a single phase induction motor. During from the evaporator of the refrigerator and compresses this gas the starting and operation, the combo allows current flow to both to high temperature and high pressure gas. It then delivers the the start and main winding.

gas to the condenser.

4-1-2 Composition

The compressor includes overload protection. The PTC starter and OLP (overload protector) are attached to the outside of the compressor. Since the compressor is manufactured to tolerances of 1 micron and is hermetically sealed in a dust and moisture-free environment, use extreme caution when repairing it.

4-1-3 Note for Usage

(1)Be careful not to allow over-current.

(2)If compressor is dropped or handled carelessly, poor operation and noise may result.

(3)Use proper electric components appropriate to the particular compressor in your product.

(4)Keep compressor dry.

If the compressor gets wet (in the rain or a damp environment) and rust forms in the pin of the Hermetic Terminal, poor operation and contact may result. If the hermetic connector rusts out or fails, refrigerant and oil will be expelled into the contact area, probably resulting in smoke and fire.

(5) When replacing the compressor, be careful that dust, humidity, and soldering flux don´t contaminate the inside of the compressor. Contamination in the cylinder may cause noise, improper operation or even cause it to lock up.

4-2 PTC-STARTER/ COMBO

4-2-1 Composition of PTCStarter

(1)PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) is a no-contact semiconductor starting device which uses ceramic material consisting of BaTiO3.

(2)The higher the temperature is, the higher the resistance value. These features are used as a starting device for the motor.

(1)The PTC is attached to the Sealed Compressor and is used for starting the motor.

(2)The compressor is a single-phase induction motor. During the starting operation, the PTC allows current flow to both the start winding and main winding.

4-2-3 Combo TSD

TSD (Time Starting Device) is a new electronic starting system for high efficiency compressors due to the following characteristics:

(1)Combo concept-overload protector, electronic board and cover in a single casing.

(2)Fully electronic concept.

(3)Full integration of starting and protection devices.

(4)Free from mechanical and electromagnetic noises.

4-2-6 Motor Resarting and PTC/ Combo Cooling

4-3-2 Role of the OLP

(1)It requires approximately 5 minutes for the pressure to equalize before the compressor can restart.

(2)The PTC/Combo device generates hea during operation. Therefore, it must be allowed to cool before the compressor can restart.

4-2-7 Relation of PTC-Starter / Combo and OLP

(1)If the compressor attempts to restart before the PTC/Combo device is cooled, the PTC/Combo device will allow current to flow only to the main winding.

(2)The OLP will open because of the over current condition. Thissame process will continue (3 to 5 times) when the compressor attempts to restart until the PTC/Combo device has cooled. The corret OLP must be properly attached to prevent damage to the compressor.

Parts may appear physically identical but could have different electrical ratings. Replace parts by part number and model number. Using an incorrect part could result in damage to the product, fire, injury, or possibly death.

4-2-8 Note for using the PTC-Starter / Combo

(1)Be careful not to allow over-voltage and over-current

(2)Do not drop or handle carelessly.

(3)Keep away from any liquid.

If liquid such as oil or water enters the PTC/Combo, PTC/Combo materials may fail due to breakdown of their insulating capabilities.

(4)If the exterior of the PTC/Combo is damaged, the resistance value may be altered. This can cause damage to the compressor and result in a no-start or hard-to-start condition.

(5)Always use the PTC/Combo designed for the compressor and make sure it is properly attached to the compressor. Parts may appear physically identical but could have different electrical ratings. Replace parts by part number and model number. Using an incorrect part could result in damage to the product, fire, injury, or possibly death.

4-3 OLP (OVERLOAD PROTECTOR)

4-3-1 Definition of OLP

(1)The OLP is attached to the sealed compressor used for the refrigerator. It prevents the motor coil from being started in the compressor.}

(2)For normal operation of the OLP, do not turn the adjust screw of the OLP in anyway.

(1)OLP (OVERLOAD PROTECTOR) is attached to the compressor and protects the motor by opening the circuit to the motor if the temperature rises activating the bimetal spring in the OLP.

(2)When high current flows to the compressor motor, the bimetal wors by heating the heater inside the OLP, and the OLP protects the motor by cutting off the current flowing to the compressor motor.
