Power Supply Switch
NOTE:When ser vicing or cleaning supply power must
be turned off.The power supply switch is located at the
rear of each cabinet behind the lower rear grill. The
switch is incorporated into the electrical box assembly.
Light Switch-Auxiliary Outlet
The light switch is located at the rear of each cabinet
(when applicable) just above the unit compartment
opening on the right hand side.
The auxiliary outlet is provided to power an external
sign scale (when applicable).
These cabinets utilize a microprocessor control to
manage both cavity temperature and defrost functions.
Cabinet OperationRefrigeration Mode
Upon setting the cabinet in it’s final location, turn
power supply on. The cabinet display should be indicating the cabinet temperature.There is a three minute
time delay sequence built in each time the supply
power is lost (compressor circuit). Evaporator fan
starts and lights come on (medium temp models).
Three minutes later the compressor starts. On low
temp models the evaporator fan delays until the evaporator coil reaches 28°F.
The display located on the lower front panel has several functions,
Display cabinet temperature
Change cavity set point temperature
NOTE: ON MED TEMP CABINETS DO
NOT SET BELOW 33°F.
Display service interface. Only qualified service personnel should activate this function.
Defrost Mode
This is on a demand basis as needed on both medium
and low temperature models.Defrost can be manually
activated through the display if needed.See below.
High Temp Thermodisc Open 140°F
Close 90°F
Notable points
1. This system utilizes a 3 minute off cycle timer to pre-
vent short cycles.
2. When the system initiates a defrost, the setpoint will
flash on and off until the defrost is terminated and the
cavity reaches the setpoint. At this time the cavity tem-
perature will be displayed as normal.
Changing Setpoint
Note: Use a paper clip to access the
function keys.
1. Pressing the top right button(i.e. up key) on the display unit will raise the set point one degree
Fahrenheit. Holding the button down will scroll the
