 5. Control theory and functions
The microcomputer
microcomputer-controlled
controlled temperature control system is used on this machine to control the
start and stop of the compressor. In power on situation, the display shows the current temperature
inside the refrigerator. To change the temperature settings, such as the original settings of -30 ℃ is
required to change to -35 ℃, the following steps should be followed:
T
Temperature adjustment:
dj
Press the “∧” and “∨” key at the same time for 3s, the setting temperature begins to flash. Each
time press the “∧” , the temperature decreases 1℃ until -42℃. Press again will return the
temperature to -20℃;
20℃; Each time press the “∨”∨ , the temperature increases 1℃ until to -20℃.
20℃ Press
again will return the temperature to -42℃; If no operation within 5s, the system will automatically
logout control temperature setting state and returns to temperature display normally.
Temperature warning:
The electronic thermostat has over temperature alarming function to ensure the safety of items
stored inside the refrigerator. When the temperature inside the refrigerator is higher than the upper
limit or lower than the lower limit of the alarm, the buzzer will alarm, and the alarm indicator on
display will blink.
blink Press the Buzzing cancel button to cancel the buzzer (the alarm indicator on the
display will continue to blink). When the temperature inside the refrigerator returns to the range
within the upper and lower limit of the alarm, the alarm will stop.

between each). Press the buzzing cancel key to cancel the buzzing and the red indicator still lights up (It does not

display temperature falls to -15℃ or lower or power off and the buzzing cancel key automatically resets).
Note: when refrigeration sensor fails, the red indicator lights up constantly and the alarm lamp invalid.

In stable operation, the low temperature refrigerator starts when the inside temperature is two degrees higher than
the setting temperature and stops when it reaches the setting temperature.
Suggestion: To determine temperature sensing probe failurefailure, the power supply should be cut off and check
whether the temperature sensing probe connection loose first.

„ Why there is so much frost on DW DW-40L262/188?

40L262/188?
„ A: The door may be loose, or you open and close the door frequently, or a small
hole on the back of the refrigerator for the condenser entering into the refrigerator
remains open,
p and all of these mayy lead to too much frost. It should be solved byy
our service personnel with a home visit service. Additionally, the refrigerator
requires regular defrosting, generally 1-2 times each month would be better .
„ DW-40L series sensor failure and how does the compressor operate?
„ A: When the low temperature refrigerator DW-40L
DW 40L is in operation and the
refrigeration sensor fails (short circuit or open circuit), the temperature display
panel shows “F1” ; the low temperature refrigerator enters into protection mode and
the compressor enters into the fixed cycle in which it runs for 20 min and shut

down 5min.The
The red indicator keeps flashing (with

inter al of 1s); if the
refrigerator is in the quick-freeze state, you should exit the state (the corresponding
indicator should be off).
