Electrical
• Please ensure that the required voltage is being supplied at all times.
• The unit should be plugged into a grounded and properly-sized electrical outlet with appropriate
over-current protection. Please refer to the electrical requirements on the unit’s nameplate.
• The unit should have its own dedicated outlet.
• Do not use extension cords.
• Ensure the unit is not resting on or against the electrical cord.
• If the unit is not in use for a long period of time, please unplug the unit from the outlet.
• To avoid shock and fire hazards, do not plug in or unplug the unit with wet hands.
• After unplugging the unit, wait at least 10 minutes before plugging it back in. Failure to do so could
cause damage to the compressor.
Adjusting the Temperature
Refrigerators are programmed to operate between 33 and 40°F.
To set the temperature you would like your unit to run at:
• Hold “SET” for 1 sec. The display will flash the temperature that refrigerator is currently set to.
• Use the arrow buttons to adjust the temperature.
• Press “SET” to save your settings.
If the unit consistently runs 5+ degrees higher than your set temperature, service may be needed.
Note: All other control functions should only be performed by a trained service technician.
Defrost System
Refrigerator coils are kept below the freezing point (32 degrees Fahrenheit). During compressor
down-time, the evaporator fan continues to circulate air through the evaporator coil. This air
circulation raises the coil temperature above the freezing point, melting any accumulated frost.
Run-off water is drained into the evaporator pan and evaporated. Freezer coils are defrosted
electrically. Automatic defrost timers automatically initiate at pre-set intervals and for a
pre-determined duration.
