OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Controls
Light Switch
This switch controls the power to the li htin circuit. The switch rocker is red in the “on” position,
black in the “off” position.
Temperature Control
This controls the refri erated side by cyclin the compressor/condensin unit. It has an “off”
position and the coldest settin when the knob is set all the way in the clockwise position. Set this
control at the lowest settin possible, while maintainin desired case temperature.
Shelves
Each display is furnished with shelves that are adjustable up and down and can be tilted in two
an ular positions. See “Shelvin Installation & Removal” section of this manual for proper
installation, adjustment and removal of shelvin .

- 14 -
6/16 Rev. A 57-02503
Placing Product into Case
-
Do not exceed 100 pounds of wei ht per shelf. Heavy product should be distributed evenly across
the entire shelvin area.
-
Determine desired shelvin location and an le before placin product in case. Product must be
removed to readjust shelf location and an le.
-
Do not overhan the front of wire shelves with product. Product may overhan rear of shelf, but
allow a minimum of 1-1/2” between product and rear door. Improper clearance in front and rear of
shelf will block the refri erated airflow and could cause product loss.
-Do not block the slots alon the front or rear of the case display pan. Coverin these slots will
block the refri erated airflow and could cause product loss.
-The display pan is removable for cleanin and can become dislod ed in shipment. To ensure
proper airflow and performance of the case, make sure that the display pan is pushed completely
down into evaporation tub. Check that the pan is installed properly before placin product the
display pans.
-Allow refri erated models to run for at least two hours before placin pre-chilled product into unit.
Turn temperature control to the lowest possible position that maintains required interior cabinet
temperature.
-CASE SHOULD BE STOCKED WITH PRE-CHILLED PRODUCT
ONLY.
ATTENTION:
Master-Bilt RCT refrigerated display cases are designed to operate in a
maximum environment of 75 DEG. F and 55% relative humidity.
Exceeding these limits could cause poor case performance and
sweating of glass panels.

Special Service Situations
There are rare occasions when the refri erant char e must be evacuated from a case in order to
perform service work. In those situations, Master-Bilt Products recommends that the refri erant
char e be evacuated into a recovery system to prevent the possibility of hydrofluorocarbons
(HFC’s) from bein released into the atmosphere.
If moisture or liquid is observed around or under case, an immediate investi ation should be made
by qualified personnel to determine the source of the moisture or liquid. The investi ation made
should determine if the case is malfunctionin or if there is a simple housekeepin problem.
Moisture or liquid around or under a case is a potential slip/fall hazard for persons walkin by or
workin in the eneral area of the case. Any case malfunction or housekeepin problem that creates
a slip/fall hazard around or under a case should be corrected immediately.
