Never open the sealed cooling or refrigerant system — this must be handled by a certified technician. If you see smoke, sparks, a burning smell, or water near electrical parts, switch the appliance off at the outlet if it is safe to do so and call a professional.
Please avoid
What not to attempt
Do not open internal panels or access high-voltage components
Do not open or attempt to recharge the sealed refrigerant system
