What the HS family is
The spine for the HS family lists 4 codes that share their opening characters and part company only at the end, which is one design sold in a number of sizes and finishes. The Aicook cabinets are small ones, and everything about a small cabinet is short: a short door, a little interior and very little thermal mass, so it answers to how it is used far more than a full-size machine does. Ice Maker Fault and Water Leak dominate here, and each has its own page.
The problems that happen on these models, and where each is covered

Before you open anything
Safety
Nothing comes off this cabinet until it is unplugged or its breaker is off. A capacitor outlives the switch, and the fan inside starts without warning.
Which of these an owner can take on
Everything reachable without a panel is owner work on these models: the setting, the air path, the seal, the drain and the feet. Past that, a meter on live terminals is required and the job stops being a weekend one.
