Appliance Placement

Leave a one (1 ) inch space on all sides and the back of the cabinet for ease of installation, proper air circulation and electrical connections. DO NOT block the front grill on the tower front of your appliance. Sufficient air circulation is essential for the proper operation of your appliance. Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. For the most efficient operation, the appliance should be located where surrounding temperatures will not drop below 40°F (5°C) or exceed 110°F (43“C). Additional compressor heaters are not recommended.

Insulation

The insulated space of this cabinet is sealed to maintain peak efficiency. Holes drilled in the cabinet may destroy that seal and damage electrical wiring located in the insulated space.

DAMAGED ELECTRICAL WIRING OR WET INSULATION CAUSED BY DRILLING WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

Appliance Start-Up

Once the appliance has been located in its permanent location and the proper power and grounding has been provided, the following items must be checked or completed:

Cool Down Period

For safe food storage, allow 24 hours for the appliance to cool down completely before loading with food.

The appliance will run continuously for the first several hours. Do not place any food in the appliance until after the first 24 hours of operation.

Thermostat Settings

The appliance is shipped from the factory with the thermostat set at about the mid-point of the operating range. Adjustments colder or warmer can be made after the appliance has been running for at least 8 hours. Allow at least 8 hours for temperature stabilization before re-adjusting the thermostat.

Defrost Setting

The appliance is designed to defrost automatically every 12 hours. To set the time of defrost, wait until the desired time to defrost. With the notch on the timer knob aligned with the line on the bracket (Figure A), turn the defrost timer knob clockwise slowly. The timer will click several times, then once loudly, at which point the defrost cycle begins. The timer knob will advance through the defrost cycle, then click loudly at the end of the cycle (Figure B).

The appliance will defrost automatically every 12 hours after the first defrost cycle.

For example, to set the appliance to defrost at 10:00 a.m., turn the timer knob clockwise at 10:00 a.m. until the timer clicks loudly.The appliance will defrost daily at 10:00 a.m. and again12 hours later at 10:00 p.m.

Note: The product interior temperature will rise during the defrost cycle every 12 hours.
