• The unit should be plugged into a grounded and properly-sized electrical outlet with appropriate over-current protection. NEVER USE AN ADAPTER PLUG! Please refer to the electrical requirements on the unit’s nameplate.
• The unit should have its own dedicated outlet.
• Do not use extension cords.
• Do not unplug your cooler by pulling on the power cord. Grip the plug firmly and pull straight out
from the outlet.

User Manual
Running a Manual Defrost Cycle
This unit is pre-programmed to run automatic defrost cycles at preset intervals. However, if you
would like to run a manual defrost cycle at any time, please follow the steps below:
Refrigerators: Press the defrost button (snowflake symbol and down arrow) for approximately 3
seconds. Repeat to stop the defrost cycle.
Defrost System
Refrigerator coils are kept below the freezing point (32 degrees Fahrenheit). During compressor
down-time, the evaporator fan continues to circulate air through the evaporator coil. This air
circulation raises the coil temperature above the freezing point, melting any accumulated frost.
Run-off water is drained into the evaporator pan and evaporated.
Operation/Maintenance
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be performed by an authorized service technician.
Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet before cleaning or making repairs.
Loading Product
• Do not block the air duct / fan at the top of the unit. Maintain a minimum of 4” of clearance
between products and the fan at all times.
• Ensure all shelves are sitting level and properly secured before loading products.
• Do not store flammable and explosive gas or liquids inside the unit.
Cleaning the Condenser Coil
• For efficient operation, keep the condenser surface free of dust, dirt, and lint.
• We recommend cleaning the condenser coil at least once per month.
• Clean the condenser with a commercial condenser coil cleaner and a soft brush, available from
any kitchen equipment retailer, or vacuuming the condenser with a shop vac or use Co2.
Cleaning the Fan Blades and Motor
• If necessary, clean the fan blades and motor with a soft cloth.
• If it is necessary to wash the fan blades, cover the fan motor to prevent moisture damage.
