BEFORE INSTALLING, PLEASE MAKE SURE:

• If the unit has recently been transported do not use for a minimum of 24 hours before installing.

• Make sure that the unit is at the desired temperature before loading it with product.

• Ensure that the unit will have proper ventilation in the area that it will operate.

• Inspect the unit to verify all accessories (shelves, shelf clips, casters) are equipped with the unit before proceeding with

installation.

• Review the entire manual in its entirety. Lack of maintenance or misuse of the unit will void the warranty.

• To minimize shock and re hazards, be sure not to over load the outlet. One outlet should be designated to the unit only.

• Do not use extension cords.

• Do not put hands under the unit when moving.

• When the unit is not being used for an extended period of time, unplug the unit from the outlet.

• After unplugging the unit, wait at least 10 minutes before re-plugging it. Failure to wait the allotted time may cause damage

to the compressor.

• To minimize shock and/or re hazards, be sure not to plug or unplug the unit with wet hands.

• Before any maintenance or cleaning, unplug the unit as a precaution.

• To minimize shock and re hazards, make sure that the unit is properly grounded.

• Do not attempt to remove or repair any component.

• Make sure that the unit is not resting on or against the electrical cord or plug.

• Do not hang or lean against door as this may cause personal injury or damage to the door hinge.

• Do not store any ammable and/or explosive gas or liquids inside the unit.

• Do not attempt to alter or tamper with the electrical cord.

• Do not set the desired temperature out of the recommended temperature range:

(REFRIGERATOR:33°F–55°F) (FREEZER:-8°F – 20°F)

CABINET LOCATION GUIDELINES

Install the unit on a at sturdy surface

• Unit may make abnormal noises if surface is uneven

• Unit may malfunction if surface is uneven

Install the unit in an indoor, well-ventilated area

• Unit performs more e󰀩ciently in a well-ventilated area

• For optimal performance, maintain a clearance of at least 6” around all sides

• Outdoor use may cause decreased performance and may damage the unit

Avoid installing the unit in a high humidity and/or dusty area

• Exposure to humidity may cause the unit to rust and/or decrease the e󰀩ciency of the unit.

• Dust build up on the condenser coil will cause the unit to malfunction. Clean the condenser at least once a month

with a brush or clean cloth. Neglect of maintenance will void the warranty.

Select a location away from heat and moisture generating equipment

• High ambient temperatures will cause the compressor to overcompensate, leading to higher energy bills and

eventual break down of the unit.

• Malfunction due to high temperatures will void the warranty.

ELECTRICAL

Please ensure that the required voltage of the compressor is constant at all times. Low or high voltage can detrimentally

a󰀨ect the unit and there by void its warranty.

All units should be plugged into a grounded and properly-sized electrical outlet with an appropriate over current

protection. Please refer to the electrical requirements on the serial tag located inside the unit. Please make sure that the

unit has its own dedicated outlet. Do not use an extension cord.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLS

The temperature controls are factory set to maintain an average temperature of 38F.

Regulating the Temperature

Your new refrigerator is now manufactured to run at ideal temperatures for food quality and should

not require any alterations.

Refrigerators are set to cycle between a base temperature of 33° Fahrenheit and a temperature maximum

of 41° Fahrenheit.

Altering the temperature changes the base temperature your unit will keep running at. Your unit won’t run always at

this setting. To change it, follow these instructions:

• Hold “SET” for 1 sec. The display will ash the temperature that the refrigerator is currently set to.

• Use the arrow buttons to adjust the temperature.

• Press “SET” to save your settings.

REFRIGERATOR CONTROL

RUNNING A MANUAL DEFROST CYCLE

This unit is pre-programmed to run automatic defrost cycles at preset intervals. However, if you would like to run a

manual defrost cycle at any time, please follow the steps below:

Refrigerators: Press the defrost button (snowake symbol and down arrow) for approximately 3 seconds. Repeat

to stop the defrost cycle.

DEFROST SYSTEMS

Refrigerator coils are kept below the freezing point (32°F). 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-o󰀨 water is drained in to the evaporator pan and evaporated.

Freezer coils are defrosted electrically. Automatic defrost timers are built in to their refrigeration system and may

not be adjusted. The defrost timers automatically initiate at pre-set intervals and for a pre-determined duration.

NOTE: We strongly reccomend that any servicing be performed by an authorized service technician.

LOADING PRODUCT

The bin dividers have been pre-installed. The dividers may be adjusted during initial installation. To remove the bin

dividers, simply push the divider towards the back wall until the front of the divider is removed from the positioning holes.

To install, position the divider to the desired holes, making sure that the pressure spring is installed properly.

DO NOT LOAD PRODUCT ABOVE THE LOAD LIMIT STICKERS OR ABOVE THE TOP CROSS BAR OF THE BIN

DIVIDERS. LOADING PRODUCT ABOVE THE LOAD LIMIT STICKERS WILL HARM THE PERFORMANCE OF THE

UNIT AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

DO NOT LOAD PRODUCT ABOVE

THE TOP CROSSBAR. DOING SO

WILL DAMAGE THE COOLER AND

VOID THE WARRANTY.

REGULAR MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Disconnect power cord before cleaning any parts of the unit.

CLEANING THE CONDENSER COIL

For e󰀩cient operation, it is important that the condenser surface be kept free of dust, dirt, and lint. It is highly

recommended that the condenser coil be cleaned at least once a month. Clean with a commercial condenser coil

cleaner and brush the condenser ns from top to bottom. After cleaning, straighten any bent ns with a ne comb.

CLEANING THE FAN BLADES AND MOTOR

If needed, clean the fan blades and motor with a soft cloth if there is any build up. If it is

necessary to wash the fan blades, cover the fan motor rst to prevent any kind of moisture damage.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR OF THE UNIT

When cleaning the cabinet interior, use a mixture of mild soap and warm water. It is not recommended to use steel wool,

caustic soap, abrasive cleaners, or bleach as this may cause damage to the stainless steel surface.

Wash door gaskets on a weekly basis. Remove the door gasket from the frame of the door, soak

in a mixture of mild soap and warm water for 30 minutes and dry with a soft cloth.

• Place back on the door and check that the gaskets form a proper seal after they are replaced.

• Periodically remove the shelves and pilasters from the unit and clean them with a mild soap and water mixture.

• To remove the pilasters, rst remove the shelves and shelf brackets. Then lift the pilaster up and out.
