Important Note: To assure sufficient air supply and circulation to the condensing unit, a minimum clearance of 12" above the grill and 3" on each side and back of the cabinet must be provided (see figure 1). If necessary, special venting or air supply ducts must be installed by the installer for this purpose. Do not at any time obstruct the grill area in front of the cabinet in any way, and never place or store anything on top of the cabinet machine compartment. These rules are essential f

Important Note: It is extremely important that your new reach-in or roll-in model is perfectly level for proper operation. If it is not level, the following adverse conditions will become apparent: 1. The door(s) will not be properly aligned and consequently will not provide a good seal. Roll-in door wiper(s) may bind. 2. Your model will run excessively due to improper door seal(s). 3. An excessive amount of ice will accumulate inside the cabinet, around the door opening(s) and especially

INSTALLING CONDENSATE EVAPORATOR No floor drains or plumbing connections are required since all models use an automatic condensate water evaporating system. All designer line models utilize a unique hot gas condensate water evaporating system which is completely self- contained and no further assembly or maintenance is required (these models are recognized by their evaporator coil which is located out of the food zone in an insulated plug-box housing next to the condensing unit). All value

REMOVAL OF DOORS AND DOOR ADJUSTMENT During installation, it may become necessary to remove the cabinet doors to facilitate passage through narrow doorways or hallways. To remove a door, pry off all hinge covers using a sharp tool or knife (see figure 5). Swing the door to the open-door position (90 degrees) and carefully lift the door upward, removing the door from the hinge bodies. If it is necessary to remove the hinge bodies from the cabinet face, be extremely careful not to lose the l

START-UP PROCEDURE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS To insure proper operation, your new model must be connected to an individual circuit that can supply the full voltage as stated on the cabinet serial data plate. For correct voltage, power draw, and wire accommodations, check the data on the serial data plate located on the inner right wall of your new model. Verify that this information exactly matches the electrical characteristics at the installation location. An electrical wiring diagram, l

START-UP CHECKLIST After your model has been installed, leveled, cleaned, and electrically connected in accordance with this manual, please take the time before start-up to observe the following precautions to assure troublefree operation: 1. Check that all exposed refrigeration lines are free of severe dents or kinks. 2. Check the condenser fan and evaporator fans for freedom to rotate without any obstructions 3. Make sure that the cabinet is properly leveled (see "leveling" under ins

OPERATION All cabinets must be given sufficient time to reach normal operating temperature before placing any food inside. Refrigerators are designed to maintain an ideal cabinet temperature of 38`f to 40`f (3.3`c to 4.4`c) and approximately 2 hours of operation are required to reach this temperature. Standard freezers are designed to maintain an ideal cabinet temperature of -2`f to 0`f (-18.9`c to -17.8`c) and approximately 4 hours of operation are required to reach this temperature. Low

Once calibration is complete return to normal temperature mode by pressing once again on the mylar display towards the right center. Now, recheck the calibration. Example: the digital display reads 45`f and the internal thermometer reads 40`f so, the digital display must be increased by 5`. Press the right center of the display twice and the number -1 is displayed (this is the point of origin and could ha

REFRIGERATOR SYSTEM AND ADJUSTMENT All self-contained value line and designer line refrigerators are designed and factory set to maintain an average cabinet temperature of 38`f. The temperature control is accessible from the top of the electrical console box located on the cabinet top behind the front grill (see figure 6). If an adjustment is necessary to maintain the above temperature range only, place a screwdriver into the thermostat slot and turn clockwise for a colder cabinet temperat

FREEZER SYSTEM AND ADJUSTMENT All self-contained value line and designer line standard freezers and low- temperature freezers are designed and factory set to maintain an average cabinet temperature of 0` f and -15`f respectively. All freezers are designed for the purpose of holding pre-frozen food and although they are capable of freezing small quantities of fresh food, they are not to be used as fast or blast freezers. Do not attempt to freeze bulk quantities of fresh foods. The temperatur

After defrost, the fan delay control prevents the evaporator fans from operating until the evaporator coil has reached a temperature of 32°f (approximately 20 minutes) thus, minimizing warm air circulation inside the cabinet. Therefore, during initial start-up, and after each defrost cycle, the fans will not turn on immediately.
