NOTICE TO CUSTOMER
INSTALLATION
Loss or spoilage of products in your refrigerator/freezer is not covered by warranty.
In addition to following recommended installation procedures, you must run the
refrigerator/freezer 24 hours prior to usage.
1. LOCATION - Allow adequate space and install the refrigerator on a firm and level floor.
If the appliance is not level, there may be unusual noises and poor cooling performance.
2. GOOD AIR CIRCULATION - Be sure to avoid any partition and object which may
stop the air flow and that air space is allowed to flow to the rear and/or sides of the unit
between the refrigerator and the back wall. Insufficient space causes vibration noise,
inefficient refrigeration, damage to the refrigeration system, and the waste of
electricity (Turbo Air recommends that the rear of the unit should be no less than
5 inches from the wall).
3. PLACE ON STRONG FLOOR - Be sure that the floor on which the unit is to be installed
is strong enough to support the total weight of the cabinet and any other contents,
before starting the installation.
4. DO NOT PLACE NEAR HEAT - Be sure to avoid hot corners and other locations such
as near stoves. High ambient temperature will result in much lower cooling efficiency.
5. INDOOR USAGE ONLY - Be sure to install this unit indoors only, to prevent getting wet
from the rain. Do not install the refrigerator in locations where the temperature is over
100°F (43°C) or below 50°F (10°C).
6. STABILIZING- Make sure the unit is installed in a stable condition with the front wheels
locked while in use.
7. LEVELING- Be sure that the unit levels from the front to the back and side to side.
8. UNIT SHOULD BE ON DEDICATED OUTLET - Plug the refrigerator into a wall socket
exclusively for this appliance. Do not run on extension cord.
9. THE ELECTRICAL PLUG MUST BE ACCESSIBLE WITHOUT MOVING THE UNIT.
10. WHEN POSITIONING FOOD FOR STORAGE, A MAXIMUM OF ONE SHELF MAY
BE LOADED LESS THAN 110lb (50kg), BUT DO NOT ALLOW LOADS TO OVER
HANG FROM THE FRONT AND REAR EDGES OF SHELVES.

1. CLEANING THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR
- The interior and exterior of the unit can be cleaned using warm water and soap.
- Do not use an abrasive cleaner because it will scratch the surface.
2. CLEANING THE CONDENSER COIL
- To maintain proper refrigeration performance, the Condenser coil must be free of
dust, dirt, and grease. This will require periodic cleaning. Condenser coil should
be cleaned at least every three months (90 days) or as needed.
- To clean the condenser, unplug the power cord. Condenser can be cleaned with
vacuum, brush, or CO2 (high pressure air).
3. CLEAN THE DRAIN PAN
- Periodically, empty the drain pan which is located under the unit.
-
When reinstalling the Drain Pan, make sure the drain hose is placed back into the pan.
4. CHECK AFTER CLEANING
1) Check the unit again for safety.
2) Plug unit back in and turn on power switch.
3) Check that the unit is operating properly.
12
CLEANING
CAUTION
Before cleaning, unplug the unit and disconnect the power.
Wipe and clean the inside and outside of appliance with a damp cloth.
1. POWER CORD
- Be sure the power cord is connected to the proper voltage.
- A protected circuit of the correct voltage and amperage must run for connection of
the line cord.
- Turn ‘off’ the power switch before disconnected the power cord, whenever
performing maintenance functions or cleaning the refrigerated cabinet.
- Compressor warranties are void if compressor burns out due to low voltage.
2. RESTARTING
- If disconnected, wait 5 minutes before restarting.
3. POSITIONING GOODS
- Do not obstruct the air inlet which is located at the back inside of the unit.
NOTE: For a self-cleaning condenser equipped model, condenser cleaning is not
required. However, it is recommended to blow the condenser coil out with Nitrogen
once or twice a year. Note that the condenser cleaner may not remove grease.
