The compressor is slightly noisy when starting| It’s a normal phenomenon, the noise will be reduced after the compressor works stably.
Code Fl displayed| Possible cause: low voltage to fridge.

Adjust the battery protection from H to M or from M to L.

Code F2 displayed| Possible cause: condenser fan is overloaded. Disconnect power to fridge for 30 minutes & re-start.
Code F3 displayed| Possible cause: the compressor starts too frequently. Disconnect power to fridge for 30 minutes & re-start.
Code F4 displayed| Possible cause: compressor not kicking in. Disconnect power to fridge for 30 minutes & re-start.
