5. Unpacking and Inspection
Unpacking
This should be inspected upon delivery. When received, carefully examine for any shipping damage before
unpacking. If damage is discovered, the delivering carrier should both specify and sign for the damage on
your copy of the delivery receipt.
Visible Loss or Damage
Note any external evidence of loss or damage on the freight bill, or express receipt, and have it signed by the
carrier’s agent. Failure to adequately describe such external evidence of loss or damage may result in the
carrier’s refusing to honor your dama le such a claim will be supplied by the
carrier.
NOTE: Failure to request an inspection of damage within a few days after receipt of shipment absolves the
carrier from any liability for damage. You must call for a damage inspection promptly.
Concealed Loss or Damage
Concealed loss or damage refers to loss or damage, which does not become apparent until the merchandise
has been unpacked and inspected. If either occur, make a written request for the carrier’s agent within 15
days of the delivery date; the damage is the carrier’s responsibility.
If you follow the above instructions carefully, we will guarantee our support of your claim to be compensated
for loss from concealed damage.
DO NOT, FOR ANY REASON RETURN THIS UNIT WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING AUTHORIZATION.
CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE, under any circumstance, the grounding prongs from the
3-prong power cord supplied with all units.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE electrical extension cords that may result in voltage loss and possible
hazardous operation.
Note any external evidence of loss or damage on the freight bill, or express receipt, and have it signed by

Electrical Connection
Determine the total amount of current presently being used by other apparatus connected to the circuit that
will be used by this refrigerator. It is critical that this added current demand and other equipment on this
circuit not exceed the rating of the fuse or circuit breaker in use.
The frequency and nominal voltage requirements for the unit the data plate. Supply this unit
with an electrical source that meets these requirements only. Low line voltage is often the cause of service
complaints. With the unit running, check that the line voltage is within ±10% of that
data plate.
General Purpose units must be connected to a grounded outlet matching the nameplate and / or the
information furnished in this manual. If you are not sure about the outlet, you should co

8. Operation
10
Start-Up Procedure
For CHV07CPSA: Rotate the control knob clockwise to lower the temperature and counterclockwise raise it.
Because the markings on the dial do se them as reference points only for
any future setting of the temperature.
For CHV05RPSA and CHV05CPSA: Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward the higher
numbers for colder temperatures. Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures
(colder) in the refrigerator.
On the coldest settings, temperatures in some spots inside the refrigerator cabinet may drop below 32°F. Use
higher thermostat settings only when required or recommended.
To check chamber temperature, place a dial thermometer on a shelf in the center of the chamber. Initially,
rotate the temperature control knob to an arbitrary setting. Allow approximately 2 hours for the temperature
to initially stabilize. Check the temperature and compare with the dial setting.
Adjust dial further to reach the desired operating temperature. After chamber initially stabilizes, allow 1/2 to
1 hour for the chamber temperature to stabilize after subsequent temperature adjustments.
If the room thermostat is turned below 60ºF at night, consider setting the temperature control one step
colder. It should be left at this setting for the nighttime period; return temperature control to original setting
when the room thermostat is returned to its normal setting.
Restart Procedure
If unit is unplugged or turned ing or plugging it back in.
How to Save Energy
CAUTION: Do not use in the presence of terials or explosive gases.
Fire or explosion could result, causing death or severe injury.
• Be sure to follow location suggestions as mentioned in Installation.
• Wipe moisture from glassware or other materials before placing them in a unit.
• Don’t overcrowd the unit. Too many items can increase electrical energy demand in order to keep
everything cool.
• Close the door as soon as possible in hot, humid weather.
• Make certain that the door is closed tightly.
• As soon as frost has accumulated to 1/4 in., defrost.
• Keep containers covered, when possible, to reduce moisture buildup.
• Set operating temperature no colder than necessary for the items being refrigerated.
Do not use in the presence of ammable or combustible materials or explosive gases.
Fire or explosion could result, causing death or severe injury.

Safety Tips
After a unit is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces, particularly when hands are damp.
Skin may adhere to the cold surfaces.
We recommend handling samples by wearing gloves to avoid frost bite.
Never disconnect your unit by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug securely and pull
straight out from the outlet.
Do not use a power cord that shows cracks or abrasions. Ha

9. Maintenance
Cleaning the Unit
Before beginning cleaning unit follow these instruction listed below:
Cleaning Interior / Exterior / Door Gaskets
A solution of mild soap / detergent and lukewarm water can be used for cleaning the interior, exterior and
door gaskets with a soft, clean cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly before reconnecting and
turning on the unit.
The cabinet interior should be cleaned frequently. Any spilled liquid should be wiped
stains resulting from some spills could be permanent if not quickly removed. The most convenient time to
clean the interior is after defrosting.
Cleaning the Condenser
With forced-fan vented units, remove the screws that mount the grill to the unit. Pull temperature control
knobs straight out this will expose condenser for cleaning.
These surfaces may be warm to the touch. The condenser should be cleaned before becoming clogged with
dirt / dust. Construction or other dirt causing environments may sign

• Disconnect power cord from its outlet.
• Set the temperature control to the OFF position.
• The unit designs permit easy and rapid cleaning and should not take more than a few minutes. Remember
to wear protective gloves to prevent frost bite, especially when removing items from freezer units.
• Do not use abrasive scouring powders, waxes, solvents, furniture polish, undiluted detergents or
cleansers containing petroleum products on the surfaces of units.

Manual Defrost Procedure
Use the following procedure to defrost manually:
When frost accumulates to 1/4 in. of the unit wi
All laboratory refrigerators feature automatic defrosting and in normal conditions no manual defrosting is
required. However, in certain conditions (e.g. when the refrigerator is very full or when any new items are
stored in the refrigerator) frost may form on the rear wall of the equipment as the compressor must run for
long periods of time. As automatic defrosting takes place while the compressor is not running, the
refrigerator may not defrost completely before the compressor restarts. In these instances, some manual
defrosting may be required.
Before manually defrosting the cabinet, make sure the power lead is disconnected from the mains.With cold

with an absorbent cloth.

Transportation and Storage
Use all required local facility procedures and PPE while transporting and storing the product.
CAUTION: Do not use any sharp instruments, blade or scraper to remove ice and frost on
refrigerator or freezer surfaces because of the very real danger of puncturing the cooling coil.
CAUTION: Do not use any electrical devices to defrost the unit.
• Rotate the temperature control knob to the OFF setting or zero position according to the model.
• Disconnect the power cord from its outlet.
• Remove contents of the unit. It is suggested to wrap contents in paper and then in a heavy blanket
to maintain temperature of items, especially those removed from a freezer. Wear protective gloves to
prevent from frost bite when handling cold items.
• Open door and allow free circulation of ambient air.
• To speed the process, place pan of warm water inside the chamber.
• Wipe out the interior.
• Replace the contents.
