INSTALLATION
1. GOOD AIR CIRCULATION
- Be sure to avoid any object which will restrict exhaust air flow
- Be sure that there is ample air space so that air can flow through the rear of the unit
- Turbo Air recommends that the rear of the unit be no less than 5 inches from the wall
2. PLACE ON STRONG GROUND
- Be sure the location chosen has a floor strong enough to support the total weight of
the cabinet and contents
3. DO NOT PLACE NEAR HEAT
- Be sure to avoid hot corners and locations near stoves
- High ambient temperature will make cooling efficiency lower
4. INDOOR USAGE ONLY
- Be sure to install this unit indoor, so it will not get wet from the rain
5. STABILIZING
- Make sure the unit is installed in a stable condition with the front wheels locked
while in use
6. LEVELING
- Be sure that the unit is leveled from front to back and side to side
7. UNIT SHOULD BE ON DEDICATED OUTLET

CLEANING
CAUTION
1. CLEANING THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR
- The interior and exterior of the unit can be cleaned using warm water with soap
- Do not use an abrasive cleaner because it will scratch the surface
2. CLEANING THE CONDENSER FINS
- To maintain proper refrigeration performace, the Condenser coil must be free of dust,
dirt, and grease
This will require periodic cleaning. Condenser fins should be cleaned at least every
three months (90 days) or as needed
3. CLEAN THE GASKET
- The door gasket should be cleaned frequently to maintain proper sealing
4. CHECK AFTER CLEANING
- Check the unit again for safety
- Check that the unit is operating properly
1. POWER CORD
- Be sure that the power cord is connected to the proper voltage
- A protected circuit of the correct voltage and amperage must be run for connection of
the line cord
- Turn ʻoffʼ the power switch before disconnecting the power cord,
whenever performing maintenance functions or cleaning the
refrigerated cabinet
- Dual voltage freezer (TGF-72F) requires receptacle as
shown the right sides
- Compressor warranties are void if compressor burns out due to low
voltage
2. RE-STARTING
- If disconnected, wait for 5 minutes before re-starting

BASIC OPERATION
1. Plug in and turn on the power and lamp switch located on the top of the bottom grille
right side. The Display panel will be lighted and make a beep sound. The compressor
will begin to run. After turning on the power, the fluorescent lamp will come on in
a few minutes.
2. The default temperature setting is No. “-8˚F” for the TGF-23F.
The default temperature setting is No. “-8˚F” for the TGF-49FE.
The default temperature setting is No. “-8˚F” for the TGF-72F.
3. The compressor is automatically cycled by the electronic controller (PCB, F-Sensor).
4. The Defrost cycle is automatically controlled by the D-sensor, and the PCB.
5. Push the temperature up button for higher temperatures and the temperature down
button for lower temperatures.
6. Evaporator fan motor will run after all doors are completely closed.
7. Good Air Flow in freezer is critical.
Be careful to load product so that it neither presses against the back wall, nor
reaches within four inches from the evaporator compartment.

DEFROST
1. If you push the T.F. (Turbo Freeze) button, the compressor will run for 120 minutes to
bring down the temperature more quickly.
2. If you push the T.F. button again during Turbo Freeze mode, the compressor will
return to the normal operation.
3. During the Turbo Freeze mode, the temperature Up/Down button will not affect the
compressorʼs operation.
1. By pushing the up/down button, you can set the inside temperature from
ʻ5˚Fʼ to ʻ-17˚Fʼ.
2. If you want lower temperatures, push the Down button.
1. The electronic defrost controller is set at the factory to provide a defrost cycle every 8
hours (3 times per a day).
2. If it is necessary to change the intervals of defrost due to unusual operating
conditions, it can be accomplished by adjusting the switch which is located on the
inside of the bottom grille.
3. Once all frost is eliminated, the temperature continues to rise until it reaches 60˚F
(15˚C). When this temperature is sensed by the defrost limit control, the defrost
control changes to refrigeration mode.
4. The panel displays “ ” during the defrost cycle.
