D. Defrost

1. Undercounter and Worktop Refrigerators

Off-Cycle Defrost: Undercounter and worktop refrigerators defrost naturally between run cycles.

2. Prep Table Refrigerators and Undercounter and Worktop Freezers

Time-Initiated Defrost Cycle: Prep table refrigerators and undercounter and worktop freezers have a 20-minute defrost cycle once every 8 hours. Defrost cycle initiation and termination are controlled by the defrost timer. For prep table refrigerators, compressor is off during the defrost cycle. For undercounter and worktop freezers, defrost heater is on and compressor is off during the defrost cycle. There is an in-line defrost safety thermostat.
To initiate a manual defrost cycle follow the steps below.
1) Make sure the appliance is unplugged, then remove the rear panel. See Fig. 18.
2) Rotate the defrost timer cam clockwise until it clicks. When the appliance is plugged in it will start in a 20-minute defrost cycle. To bypass the defrost cycle and start at the beginning of an 8-hour interval, rotate the defrost timer cam clockwise until it clicks a 2nd time.

E. Food Storage

WARNING
• This appliance is designed only for temporary storage of food. Employ sanitary
methods. Use for any other purposes (for example, storage of chemicals or medical supplies such as vaccine and serum) could cause deterioration of stored items.
• Do not block air inlets or outlets, otherwise cooling performance may be reduced.
• Do not tightly pack the cabinet. Allow some space between items to ensure good air ow. Also allow space between items and interior surfaces.
• Do not put warm or hot foods in the cabinet. Let them cool rst, or they will raise
the cabinet temperature and could deteriorate other foods in the cabinet or overload the appliance.
• All foods should be wrapped in plastic lm or stored in sealed containers. Otherwise
foods may dry up, pass their smells onto other foods, cause frost to develop, result in poor appliance performance, or increase the likelihood of cross-contamination. Certain dressings and food ingredients, if not stored in sealed containers, may accelerate corrosion of the evaporator, resulting in failure.
• Do not store items near air outlets. Otherwise, items may freeze up and crack or
break causing a risk of injury or contamination of other food.
Additional Information for Prep Table Models
• The entire rail must always be covered by rail dividers and pans (1/6 size, up to
6"(15cm)deep). Otherwise, the appliance will not cool properly.
• Use only 1/6 size pans up to 6"(15cm) deep. Do not use damaged pans.
• Ingredients must be pre-chilled to 37°F (3°C) or less before placing in rail.
• Keep the rail cover closed when not actively preparing food.
• The rail is for keeping ingredients cool while preparing food. If not actively preparing
food for a long period such as overnight, seal pans with plastic wrap in addition to closing the rail cover. Depending on conditions, the cabinet temperature setting may need to be adjusted to prevent items from freezing. Alternatively, seal ingredients and store them in a refrigerator or freezer.

F. Safety Devices

1. Compressor External or Internal Protector
If combined temperature/amperage value is above the limit specied by the compressor manufacturer, the compressor protector operates independently to turn off the compressor. The compressor protector de-energizes the compressor until the temperature/amperage value returns to an acceptable level.
2. High-Pressure Switch (CRMF48(-W))
If pressure on the high-side of the unit exceeds Hoshizaki specications, the high-pressure switch activates and interrupts the compressor circuit, de-energizing the compressor until the pressure returns to an acceptable level.

G. Cooling Performance

Be sure the appliance is properly installed and located for optimum cooling performance. If cooling performance is not at its optimum level, check the following items:
• Door(s) opened too often.
• Door(s) left open. Close.
• Cabinet too tightly packed or air inlets/outlets blocked. Allow some space between items to ensure good air ow.
• Warm or hot foods inside. Take them out until they cool down more.
• Ambient temperature too high. Avoid installation near high heat producing equipment or
exposure to direct sunlight.
• Temperature control setting not cold enough. Adjust to a colder setting. The warmest
setting is 1 and the coldest setting is 7.
• Prep Table Refrigerators and Undercounter and Worktop Freezers: Appliance in defrost
cycle. The cabinet temperature may rise temporarily during the defrost cycle, but this will not affect the food inside.
