URS-1 CONTROL SETTINGS AND TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT:

OPERATION:

This unit features a digital electronic control with automatic defrost cycles to prevent the coil from freezing. It operates by

lowering the cabinet temperature to your desired setting whilst regularly providing defrost cycles to the unit during

operation.

CONTROLS AND LOCATION:

This refrigerator is programmed with
a time delay to protect the
compressor. When the unit is
powered on, the compressor will not
run for approximately ten minutes,
this is normal. The refrigeration cycle
will then start but it may be a further
five to ten minutes before cold air will
be perceived inside the unit.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Switch the unit ON using the main ON/OFF power switch. Immediately after the unit is switched on the cabinet light and
inside evaporator fans will start operating. Check the temperature setting which has been set at the factory to 35°F.

ALFRESCO™ recommends starting the unit at 35°F for optimal operation, only adjusting up or down to your preference once
the units’ cabinet temperature has stabilized after 24 hours of operation.
To adjust the temperature set point, press and release the “SET” button, whereupon the display will start flashing. Using the
up or down arrow, adjust to the desired temperature, then press and release the “SET” button to complete the adjustment.

• FOR NORMAL OPERATION SET THE UNIT TO 35°F.

• DO NOT CHANGE THE TEMPERATURE SETTING WITHOUT ALLOWING TIME FOR THE PREVIOUS SETTING

TO TAKE EFFECT; APPROXIMATELY 24 HOURS.

• THE COMPRESSOR WILL START AND STOP OFTEN; THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION.

• KEEP YOUR REFRIGERATOR LEVELED.
