Introdução

Use this guide to access the back of the main interior assembly when replacing the heat sink in your Gourmia GMF600 mini refrigerator. The heat sink helps to dissipate the heat from the hot side of the Peltier module into the surrounding room air. Replacing the heat sink may improve cooling performance.

Before you begin, unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet and use caution when working around internal wiring and sharp metal edges.
