The most important thing you can do to insure a long, reliable service life for your Kairak 
is to regularly clean the condenser coil and or filter if provided. 
The microprocessor control will notify you through a “CLN-FIL” message when the 
condensing temperature of the refrigerator reaches 140 degrees F or greater. If the 
condensing temperature reaches 160 degrees F the compressor will automatically turn 
off . When the temperature drops below 140 degrees F the compressor will restart and 
when the temperature drops below 120 degrees F the alarm will reset.

To clean the condenser/filter, first disconnect electrical power to the cabinet and remove 
the front louver assembly. To do so, place hands under the louver panel and pull out and 
up to get louver panel off bracket of the unit (Figure 3). 
Proceed to vacuum or brush any dirt, lint or dust from the finned condenser coil/filter, the 
compressor and other cooling system parts. If significant dirt is clogging the condenser 
fins or filter, use compressed air to blow this clear. To replace the louver assembly reverse 
the process.
