INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• INSPECTION ON ARRIVAL

UPON ARRIVAL OF THE COOLER, THE CARTON SHOULD BE CAREFULLY INSPECTED FOR ANY OUTWARD SIGN OF
DAMAGE. IF ANY SIGN OF DAMAGE IS FOUND, IT SHOULD BE NOTED ON THE CARRIER’S FREIGHT BILL BEFORE SIGNING
FOR THE MERCHANDISE. IN ANY CASE, THE COOLER SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY UNCRATED TO CHECK FOR APPARENT OR
CONCEALED DAMAGE WITHIN 48 HOURS AFTER DELIVERY AND THE CARRIER NOTIFIED FOR AN INSPECTION WITHIN THIS
PERIOD.

• UNCRATING - SM, SMF, MS MODELS

To uncrate cooler, remove staples around the bottom of carton with screwdriver. Care should be taken to remove the
staples completely so that they will not damage the cooler nish when the carton is removed. Lift the carton tube from
around the cooler. Remove cooler from skid.

• LOCATING COOLER

It is necessary to properly level cooler to provide adequate drainage and efcient functioning of the unit. Make sure there is
enough room around the cooler to assure good air circulation through the condenser.

• ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

Plug all standard models into a 110-115 volts A.C. 50- or 60-cycle outlet. Low line voltage is often the cause of service
complaints. Check to see that the live voltage is 110 volts or more with the unit running. Other motors or heavy appliances
should not be used on the same circuit with the cooler. When working on the inside of the cooler, disconnect from electrical
circuit for safety reasons.

• STARTING UP OF UNIT

Factory setting of temperature control is at No. 5 position (normal) on control dial which will maintain the temperature as
follows:

36°F —SM Models
40°F —MS Models

For colder temperature, turn control knob to higher number, one position at a time. Excessive tampering with the control
could lead to service difculties. Should it become necessary to replace temperature control, be sure it is ordered from an
authorized Beverage-Air distributor or direct from the factory.

• DRAINAGE — MS MODELS

The condensation drains into a condensate disposal pan located just below unit compartment grill. This pan is equipped
with vapor glass wicking to hasten the evaporation process so plumbing is not required. The drain lines and pan should be
thoroughly cleaned periodically as solids from spilled products may not evaporate, resulting in an unsanitary condition.

• CLEANING

The cooler should be thoroughly cleaned inside and out at regular intervals to preserve the nish and appearance. If
stainless steel becomes discolored or stained, it can be cleaned with standard cleaners such as Bon-Ami, but not with
steel wool. All dirt and lint should be removed from the condenser at regular intervals for efcient performance of the cooler.
