E L E C T R O N I C C O N T R O L SYSTEM
The electronic control system of the PRO 48
monitors and accurately displays compartment
temperatures within one degree of your pre-set
temperatures. It also monitors the operation of
the unit and lets you know if there is a
problem. The interior control panel located at
the top of the refrigerator door compartment
has key pads to set temperatures and control
functions of the electronic control system.
TEMPERATURECONTROL
Your new PRO 48 was thoroughly inspected
and tested before it was shipped from the
Sub-Zero factory. Temperatures are preset at
3°C in refrigerator compartments and -18°C in
the freezer compartments.
There are three sets of

erator door section, and 1°C to 3°C in the lower
refrigerator drawers. It is normal for tempera-
tures to fluctuate slightly, depending on
external influences such as an open door, the
degree of humidity and room temperature.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Always allow 24 hours
for compartments to reach the temperature
you set.

SUB-ZEROP R O 4 8 U S E  &  C A R E
D UA L R E F R I G E R AT I O N SYSTEM
The PRO 48 continues the Sub-Zero tradition
of superior quality and reliability. Sub-Zero
pioneered the development of our exclusive
dual refrigeration systems, giving you
optimum fresh and frozen food storage in ideal
self-contained compartments. Both refrigerator
and freezer maintain accurate, consistent
temperatures. Dual refrigeration keeps your
food fresh longer than any other system
available.
With dual refrigeration, the freezer maintains a
consistent temperature within one degree of
the temperature you set within our range of
-20°C to -15°C, without unwanted moisture and
odor from the refrigerator. Similarly, you can
adjust the refrigerator temperature within a
range of 1°C to 7°C, for proper humidity levels
tailored for longer food life expectancy.
Dual refrigeration also means there is no
transfer of fresh food odors to frozen food or
ice. The PRO 48 system does not freeze the
moisture out of the air in the fresh food
compartments.
The Sub-Zero dual refrigeration system is
more energy efficient than standard single
refrigeration systems. When the refrigerator is
used frequently during the day, it does not
require the freezer to circulate its very cold, dry
air to the refrigerator. Instead, the refrigerator
uses moist air to keep fresh foods fresh and
energy use minimal.

11
REFRIGERATORDRAWERDIVIDERS
The PRO 48 refrigerator storage drawers give
you full access to food with adjustable and
removable dividers. The dividers are
interchangeable between the upper and
lower refrigerator drawer. Two long dividers
run the full depth of the drawer, with shorter
dividers that connect to the long dividers to
compartmentalize the drawer.
To remove the short dividers, lift up and out
of position from supports on the long
dividers and sides of the drawer. The long
dividers can also be removed by lifting up
and out of position from drawer support
tabs. Refer to the illustration of the storage
drawer below.
One divider is mounted permanently in the
upper refrigerator drawer.

I C E M A K E R OPERATION
The ice maker in the PRO 48 is fully auto-
matic and has been tested at the Sub-Zero
factory.
To turn the ice maker on or off, depress the
ICE MAKER key pad on the control
panel. When the ice maker is on, it will be
operating any time the drawer is closed.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A reverse osmosis
system can be used with the PRO 48,
provided there is constant water pressure of
1.4 bar to 8.3 bar supplied to the unit at all
times.
I C E PRODUCTION
The ice maker is designed to produce
enough ice for normal family use. The timing
of ice making cycles will vary depending on
load conditions, door and drawer openings
and room temperature. On average, you can
expect a cycle of ice (eight cubes per cycle)
every two hours.
For extra ice capacity, remove the ice bucket
with the ice maker system on and allow the
drawer to fill with ice.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Removing the ice
bucket will not increase the rate of ice
production.
If ice is not used on a regular basis it tends
to fuse together. To avoid this, empty the ice
bucket periodically allowing it to replenish
with a fresh supply.

I N T E R I O R CLEANING
To clean interior surfaces and removable parts,
wash with a mild solution of soap and luke-
warm water with a little baking soda. Do not
use vinegar. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid
getting water on lights and control panel.
E X T E R I O R CLEANING
To clean the exterior of the classic stainless
steel finish, use a soft, nonabrasive stainless
steel cleaner and apply with a soft 100% lint-
free cloth.
To bring out the natural luster, lightly wipe the
surface with a water-dampened microfiber
cloth followed by a dry polishing chamois. All
work should follow the grain direction of the
finish. Better results are obtained by keeping
the cloth in continuous contact with the stain-
less steel.
15
C ON D E N S E R CLEANING
The condenser of the PRO 48 is located behind
the grille at the top of the unit. The grille must
be lifted to access the condenser area for
cleaning. To lift the grille, pull out on the
bottom edge of the grille and tilt the grille
frame forward.
Use a soft bristle brush and vacuum to remove
dust and lint from the condenser. Clean the
condenser area every three to six months.
Before cleaning the unit, shut the electric-
ity off at the control panel. When you
clean the condenser, wear gloves to avoid
injury from the sharp condenser fins.
Under no circumstances should you use a
metallic or highly abrasive cleaner or
cloth, as this will scratch the classic
stainless steel finish.
Failure to clean the condenser could
result in temperature loss or mechanical
failure or damage.
Do not submerge or pour hot water over
cold glass shelves.
