WARRANTY

Proper installation is the first step to operation.
Receiving Shipment
All units are performance tested and thoroughly inspected prior to shipment. Upon leaving the factory, all units are in
perfect condition. Upon receipt, examine the exterior of the shipment packaging for any signs of rough handling. If the
cabinet is damaged, it should be noted on the delivery slip or bill of lading and signed. A claim must be filed immediately
against the carrier indicating the extent and estimated cost of damage incurred.
Uncrating, Installing Adjustable Foot Levelers & Leveling
Tools Needed : 9/16” Box Wrench or Adjustable Wrench ●●Level ●●Wooden Blocks (or equivalent) ●●4 Adjustable Foot Levelers
WARNING: Never lay your refrigerator or freezer down on either its back, front or sides. This allows compressor oil into
the refrigerant lines which can damage the compressor at start-up. If the unit is laid down, it must be set upright for a
minimum of 12 hours before starting the compressor. Failure to adhere to the above recommendation will void the
warranty.
Uncrating
1. Remove and discard all cardboard crating, packaging material, tape and interior components.
2. Move cabinet as close to final location as possible before removing skid.
3. Remove the shipping skid by tipping the cabinet forward. Remove the shipping bolts with 9/16” box wrench while
the cabinet is held in one direction. Repeat this procedure while the cabinet is held in the opposite direction.
4. Use extreme caution when removing the wooden skid, especially when the last bolt is removed. If not properly
blocked, the skid will fall to the floor.
Installing Adjustable Foot Levelers
Once the uncrating process is complete, make sure the adjustable foot levelers are safely secured on the bottom of the
cabinet for proper support and leveling purposes.
Utilize wooden blocks or equivalent to support the cabinet when placing adjustable foot levelers.
“Adjustable Foot Levelers”
Leveling
Cabinets must be leveled when installed. Failure to level your cabinet may result in doors not sealing, closing properly or
condensate water not draining appropriately.
Locating Your New Undercounter Refrigerator or Freezer
Consider the following when selecting a cabinet location:
1. Clearance - Undercounter refrigerator or freezer cabinets do not require a clearance between the back of the cabinet
and neighboring wall. The front grill is designed to guarantee sufficient air circulation to the condensing unit. However,
it will improve the cabinet's efficiency if there is air flowing through the louvers of the rear grill that conceals the
condensing unit.
2. Floor Load - The floor on which the cabinet will rest must be free of vibration and suitably strong enough to support
the combined weights of the cabinet plus the maximum product load.
3. Ventilation - The air cooled, self-contained refrigeration system requires a sufficient amount of cool, clean air. Avoid
placing the refrigerator or freezer cabinet near heat generating equipment such as ovens, heaters, etc., and out of
direct sunlight. Avoid locating the self-contained refrigerator cabinet in an unheated room, or where the room
temperature may be below 65°F.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Cabinet Cleaning
Prior to placing your new refrigerator or freezer and all shelves into operation, it is advisable that the interior be washed
thoroughly with a mild, non-abrasive detergent and a chlorine free water solution. Rinse with clear water and a sanitizing
solution. Allow cabinet to air dry.
Read “Periodic Maintenance” section for additional cleaning instructions.
Installing Shelves
All cabinets with shelves are supplied with pilasters and shelf clip supports. Shelves are easily installed by inserting the
shelf support clips into the pilasters so they fit tightly. Align the shelf so the smaller fill wires run from front to rear and rest
the shelf on the clips.
Electric Supply
Wiring should be done by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. A properly wired refrigerator or
freezer will assure proper operation. Electrical supply requirements are on the cabinet serial/data plate located on the
upper left interior tank wall inside the cabinet. It is recommended that a direct, properly protected line of the proper size
wire be installed from the main supply to your refrigerator or freezer. To assure that the correct voltage is being
supplied, while the refrigerator or freezer is in operation take a voltage reading at the compressor-motor electrical
connections, or as close to the compressor-motor as possible.
All refrigerator or freezer electrical systems are internally grounded.
Temperature Control
Temperature control should be set to maintain a temperature of 36°F (2.2°C) to 38°F (3.3°C) for refrigerators and 0°F
(-17°C) to -5°F (-20.5°C) for freezers.
Installation Checklist
After the cabinet has been installed, leveled and cleaned as described, refer to the following checklist prior to start-up.
Check for proper electrical hook-up.
Check exposed refrigeration line connections for leaks. Make sure refrigeration lines are not dented, kinked or rubbing.
Check condenser fan for freedom to rotate without striking any stationary members.
Check that cabinet is level.
Product Load
After the refrigerator or freezer has been started and reaches the proper storage temperatures, items may be loaded. For
optimum energy efficiency, we recommend allowing a 1-1/2” clearance between the interior cabinet wall and product load.
