conditions. For colder water, adjust screw on item no. 12 in
clockwise direction.
Ventilation: Cabinet louvers and condenser fins should be
periodically cleaned with brush, air hose or vacuum cleaner.
Excess dirt or poor ventilation can cause no cold water and
compressor cycling on the compressor overload protector.
