INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your
appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To
ensure your product performs to specications, the recommended installation location temperature range is from
55 to 115°F (13 to 46°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appliance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the appliance as long as the front grille remains unobstructed.

CAUTION
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the
front grille allow air to ow through the condenser heat exchanger. Restrictions to this air ow will result in increased
energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason
it is important this area to not be obstructed and the grille
openings kept clean (See Figure 1). The use of a custom
made grille is not recommended as it may restrict air ow.
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appli-
ance should be set so the unit is rmly positioned on the
oor and level from side to side and front to back. The over-
all height of your DCS appliance may be adjusted between
the minimum, 333⁄4" (85.7 cm), by turning the leveling leg in
(CW ↷) and the maximum, 343⁄4" (88.3 cm) by turning the
leveling leg out (CCW ↶).
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid
surface and protect the oor beneath the legs to avoid
scratching the oor. With the assistance of another person,
lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs.
Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning
the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appliance forward using caution. On a level surface check the
appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille adjusted to the desired height. When adjustment is complete
tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 2).

Step by step instructions for locating the position of the bracket:
1) Decide where you want to place the drawer refrigerator.
Slide it into place, being careful not to damage the oor,
leaving 1" (2.5 cm) of clearance from the rear wall to allow
room for the anti-tip bracket.
2) Raise the rear leveling legs approximately 1⁄4" (6 mm) to
allow engagement with the anti-tip bracket. Level the unit
by adjusting all the leveling legs as required. Turning the
leveling leg counterclockwise will raise the unit and clockwise will lower the unit.
NOTE
If installing on a concrete oor, concrete fasteners are
required, (not included with the anti-tip kit).
!
CAUTION
Any nished ooring should be protected with appropriate
material to avoid damage when moving the unit.
Floor Mount Installation
The anti-tip bracket is to be located on the oor in the left
or right rear corner of the refrigerator drawer as shown in
Figure 6.
3) Make sure the refrigerator is in the desired location, then
mark on the oor the rear and side corner of the cabinet
where the anti-tip bracket will be installed. If the installation
does not allow marking the rear corner of the cabinet, then
make temporary lines on the oor marking the front corner
of the cabinet, excluding the drawer. Slide the refrigerator
out of the way. From the temporary line extend the sidewall
line back 211⁄2" (54.6 cm) as shown in Figure 7.
4) Align the anti-tip bracket to the marks on the oor so
the side of the bracket lines up with the side of the cabinet
mark, and the "V" notches on the anti-tip bracket line up
with the end of the 211⁄2" (54.6 cm) line (Rear of cabinet
line).
5) Fasten the anti-tip bracket to the oor using the supplied
screw. (See Figure 7).
6) Slide the cabinet back into position, making sure the rear
cabinet leveling leg slides under the anti-tip bracket engaging the slot.

Energy saving tips:
The following suggestions will minimize the
cost of operating your refrigeration appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance
(cooker, dishwasher, etc.), heating air duct, or other
heat sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Ensure the front grille vents at front of appliance beneath drawer are not obstructed and kept clean to allow
ventilation for the refrigeration system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. When initially loading your new product, or whenever
large quantities of warm contents are placed within
refrigerated storage compartment, minimize drawer
openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull
down to compartment set temperature.
6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will
require less appliance run time than an empty compartment.
7. Ensure drawer closing is not obstructed by contents
stored in your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before placing in product.
9. Minimize drawer openings and duration of drawer
openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set temperature
that meets your personal preference and provides the
proper storage for your stored contents.
11. When on vacation or away from home for extended
periods, set the appliance to warmest acceptable
temperature for the stored contents.
12. Set the control to the “off” position if cleaning the
appliance requires the drawer to be open for an ex tended period of time.

If necessary to gain clearance inside the rough-in
opening a hole can be cut through the adjacent
cabinet and the power cord routed through this
hole to a power outlet. Another way to increase
the available opening depth is to recess the power
outlet into the rear wall to gain the thickness of the
power cord plug.

• Temperature Sensor Fault: If the control-
ler detects that the temperature sensor is not
properly functioning, a temperature sensor
alarm will sound in one (1) second intervals. "E1" will ash
on the display panel and the Alarm LED located at the top
left of the display below the word "Alarm" will be illuminated.
• High and Low Temperature Alarm: If your
unit reaches an unacceptable temperature
outside of your set-point, the alarm will sound
in (1) second intervals. The display panel will
ash either "Hi" or "Lo" depending upon the
condition and the Alarm LED light at the top
left of the display below the word "Alarm" will be illuminated. These alarms indicate that the compartment temperature has moved 10° or more from the set point for more
than 1 hour duration. The alarm will remain active until the
condition is corrected.
It may take up to 24 hours for your refrigerator to reach
desired temperature. This will depend on amount of content
loaded and number of door openings and closings.
For best results allow refrigerator to "pull down" to desired
set temperature before loading. Once contents are loaded,
allow at least 48 hours for temperature to stabilize before
making any adjustments to the set temperature.
