PRE-INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Air Flow
The model 315W uses a fan to take room air in through
the front left side of the kickplate/grille (See Figure 2-1).
Figure 2-1. Air Flow
Figure 2-2. Power Cord and Wall Outlet
Note: Follow all local, state and national codes.
Possible Need for Unit Removal
In most cases it will be necessary to pull the 315W unit
from its installation for service. For this reason, the
area under the 315W should be at the same height as
the surrounding finished floor and any decorative mold-
ing must be removable, as well as the unit ti counter top
bracket (if used).
Moving the Unit
When the unit is moved into the house, or needs to be
removed from the house for service purposes, it is rec-
ommended to use a hand truck or dolly. Be sure to
position dolly on the side of unit and securely tape the
door shut so it will not open while transporting the unit.
• PLUG UNIT INTO GROUNDED 3-PRONG OUTLET.
• DO NOT REMOVE GROUND PRONG FROM
POWER CORD.
• DO NOT USE A 2-PRONG ADAPTER.
• DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN
RESULT IN FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR DEATH!
Airflow through the kickplate/grille must never be
obstructed. Doing so will cause a decrease in per-
formance and possible damage to the 315W unit.
The minimum ambient air temperature the 315W will
operate in is 50°F/ 10°C, and the maximum air temper-
ature is 100°F/ 38°C.
Electricity
The model 315W is supplied with a three prong power
cord to be plugged into a grounded wall outlet (See
Figure 2-2). The outlet should be on a branch circuit of
115 VAC, 60 Hz, single phase 15 amp, delayed action
fuse or circuit breaker. The 315W should be the only
device using that circuit.

INSTALLATION
Leveling
Note: This model must be leveled prior to installation.
There are four leveler legs on a model 315W, one at
each corner. To level the unit, turn the leveler legs
counterclockwise to raise the unit or clockwise to lower
the unit. (See Figure 2-5)
If the unit is to be built in, with the electrical outlet
behind the installed location, plug unit in and slide back
into position. Check for stability and adjust legs as
needed.
If unit is free standing, move it into place and check for
stability. Adjust legs as needed. Plug unit into an elec-
trical outlet.
Initial Start-up
When the installation is complete, be sure to remove all
tape and packing materials before initial start-up.
Locate the temperature control knob on the bottom front
of unit. Rotate knob clockwise to an operating position.
(See Figure 2-6)
You should immediately hear a humming noise and feel
air blowing in and out of the vents near the knob. (See
Figure 2-7) After 10 minutes open the door and feel the
back panel inside the cabinet. It should feel cold to the
touch.
To switch refrigeration off, rotate the temperature con-
trol knob fully counterclockwise. The light will still be
operational.
