For California Businesses:
This product may contain chemicals known
to the State of California to cause cancer,
birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
This warning is the result of the California State
law known as the California Safe Drinking Water
and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, which is
commonly referred to as “Proposition 65.”
This warning does not mean that Hussmann
products will cause cancer or reproductive
harm, or is in violation of any product-safety
standards or requirements. As claried by the
California State government, Proposition 65
can be considered more of a ‘right to know’ law
than a pure product safety law. When used as
designed, Hussmann believes that our products
are not harmful. We provide the Proposition 65
warning to stay in compliance with California
State law. It is your responsibility to provide
accurate Proposition 65 warning labels to your
customers when necessary. For more information
on Proposition 65, please visit the California
State government website.
The DDSS models are open, vertical, medium
temperature display merchandisers. Each self
contained model will have its own condensing
unit, factory installed beneath the display area
of the case ready for operation when electrical
service is connected.

SEALING MERCHANDISER TO FLOOR
If required by local sanitary codes, or if the
customer desires, merchandisers may be sealed
to the floor using a vinyl cove base trim. The
size needed will depend on how much variation there is in the floor, from one end of the
merchandiser to the other. Sealing of the lower
front and rear panels on self contained models may hamper their removal for servicing or
maintenance of the condensing unit.
NOTE: Do not allow trim to cover any intake

WATER OUTLET AND WATER SEAL
The condensate water outlet is located in the
center of the merchandiser. The outlet has an
external water seal installed from the factory.
This water seal drains into the condensate
evaporation pan located beneath the merchandiser. Remote models have a fan to circulate
air around the base to keep condensation from
forming.
NOTE: All lower base panels must be in place
when the refrigerator is operating. If not,
airflow from the condenser (self-contained)
will be directed over the evaporation pan and
defrost water in the pan may overflow.
The Safe-NET III controller includes the

SAFE-NET III™USER INSTRUCTIONS
Your refrigerated case uses a Hussmann
Safe-NET™ III temperature and defrost
controller to precisely maintain the temperature and prevent frost buildup on the cooling
coil. LEDs indicate when the compressor or
refrigeration is on, when the case is in a defrost
cycle, if the temperature is outside the desired
range, or if there is a sensor failure.
An adjustment knob allows the temperature
to be set within the configured range and can
power off the controller and compressor. Your
controller has been custom-configured to provide the best temperature and defrost control
for your chilled or frozen food.
Adjusts the temperature setpoint.
Turn adjustment knob to OFF to turn off

THERMOSTATIC EXPANSION VALVE
(TEV)
Each self contained merchandiser has its own
evaporator coil and a pre-set thermostatic
expansion valve (TEV). The TEV has been
factory set at design conditions to provide the
recommended performance.
TEV Adjustment
Expansion valves may be adjusted to fully feed
the evaporator. Before attempting to adjust
valves, make sure the evaporator is clear or only
lightly covered with frost, and the merchandiser
is within 10°F of its expected operating
temperature.
Adjust the valve as Follows:
a. Attach a probe to the suction line near the
expansion valve bulb.
b. Obtain a pressure reading from the factory
installed Schraeder valve. Convert the pressure reading to a saturated temperature for the
refrigerant.
Temperature (b) minus Temperature (a) is the
superheat. The valve should be adjusted so that
the greatest difference between the two temperatures is 3°F to 5° F.
Make adjustments of no more than
1
/2 turn of
the valve stem at a time and wait for at least
15 minutes before rechecking the probe temperature and making further adjustments.
Each merchandiser has a load limit decal. Shelf

always polish with grain of the steel. Use warm
water or add a mild detergent to the water and
apply with a cloth. Always wipe rails dry after
wetting.
Use alkaline chlorinated or non-chlorine
containing cleaners such as window cleaners
and mild detergents. Do not use cleaners
containing salts as this may cause pitting and
rusting of the stainless steel finish. Do not use
bleach.
Discharge air honeycomb should be cleaned
every six months. Dirty honeycomb will
cause merchandisers to perform poorly.
The honeycomb may be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner. Soap and water may be used if
all water is removed from the honeycomb cells
before replacing. Be careful not to damage the
honeycomb.
1. Using a flat object such as a screw driver,
behind the rear edge of the honeycomb on
on the right hand end, and gently pull
down.
2. Clean with a mild detergent and warm
water and dry the honeycomb.
3. After cleaning, replace in reverse order.
Damaged honeycomb must be replaced.
CLEANING COILS
Condenser coils should be cleaned at least
once per month. Additional cleaning may be
needed depending on the operational environment. A dirty condenser blocks normal airflow
through the coils.
Airflow blockage increases energy consumption and reduces the merchandiser’s ability to
maintain operating temperature.
1. Installed Location
2. Push UP
and IN
To clean the coils, use a vacuum cleaner with
a wand attachment and a soft (non-metallic)
brush to remove dirt and debris. Do not bend
coil fins. Always wear gloves and protective
eye wear when cleaning near sharp coil fins
and dust particles.
PRECAUTION
CLEANING PRECAUTIONS
When Cleaning:
• Do not use high pressure water hoses
• Do not introduce water faster than waste outlet can drain
• NEVER INTRODUCE WATER ON SELF CONTAINED
UNIT WITH AN EVAPORATION PAN
• NEVER USE A CLEANING OR SANITIZING SOLUTION
THAT HAS OIL BASE (these will dissolve the butyl
sealants) or an AMMONIA BASE (this will corrode the
copper components of the merchandiser)
• TO PRESERVE THE ATTRACTIVE FINISH:
• Use a water and a mild detergent for the exterior only
• Do NOT use a chlorinated cleaner on any surface
• Do NOT use abrasives or steel wool scouring pads
(these will mar the finish)

4-4 Maintenance
CLEANING EVAPORATION PAN
The condensate water outlet empties into a
limited capacity evaporation pan.
Debris or dirt accumulation inside the condensate evaporation pan or on the heater coil will
reduce the pan’s evaporation capacity and
cause premature heater failure. The evaporation
pan waste water will overflow and spill onto the
floor if the heater is not properly operating.
Remove accumulated debris from the evaporation pan. Wipe down heater coil with a cloth
and warm water. Be sure to remove any dirt,
debris or liquids from the heater coil.
Water introduced during cleaning will cause
the evaporation pan to overflow.
NEVER USE SHARP OBJECTS AROUND
COILS. Use a soft brush or vacuum brush to clean debris from coils. Do not puncture coils!
Do not bend fins. Contact an authorized
service technician if a coil is punctured,
cracked, or otherwise damaged.
MAINTAINING FLUORESCENT LAMPS
(IF APPLICABLE)
Many of the self-contained cases are equipped
with LEDs. For cases with fluorescent lamps,
follow these directions to ensure long-lasting
life of the lights:
Fluorescent lamps should not be allowed to
run to failure. If a re-lamp schedule is not in
place, the tubes should be inspected for signs
of degradation (blackened ends). Degraded or
failed tubes should be replaced.
Allowing severly degraded lamps to operate
may cause a ballast failure or could expose
the lamp holder to excessive heat. Replacing
degraded bulbs is more cost effective
than replacing ballast and lamp-holders.
Traditional re-lamp programs are 18-to-24
month intervals. In the absence of a re-lamp
program, a yearly inspection of the lighting
system is recommended.
1. Inspect all lamp sockets and plug-receptacle
connections for signs of arching. Replace any
component that shows signs of arching.
ICE in or on the coil indicates the refrigeration and defrost cycle is not operating properly. Contact an authorized service technician
to determine the cause of icing, and to make
adjustments as necessary. To maintain product
integrity, move all product to a cooler until
the unit has returned to normal operating
temperatures.
2. Make sure all unused receptacles have their
close-off covers securely installed.
3. Make sure proper cleaning procedures are
followed. Lights and fans MUST be turned off
when a case is cleaned and MUST be allowed to
dry before turning power back on.
4. Do not use a pressure nozzle to clean inside
of case.
Evaporation Pan is Hot!
and poses risk of bodily injury – Always Wear gloves
and protective eye wear when servicing. Turn off
evaporation pan heater, and allow pan to cool.
Should it ever be necessary to service or
replace the fan motors or blades be certain that
the fan blades are reinstalled correctly.

For access to these fans:
1. Remove product and place in a refrigerated
area. Turn off power to the merchandiser.
2. Remove bottom display pans.
3. Disconnect fan from wiring harness.
4. Remove fan blade.
To avoid serious injury or death from electrical shock, always disconnect the electrical
power at the main disconnect when servicing
or replacing any electrical component. This
includes, but is not limited to, such items as
doors, lights, fans, heaters, and thermostats.
11. Close air gaps under fan plenum. Warmer
air moving into refrigerated air reduces
effective cooling. If the plenum does not
rest against the case bottom without gaps,
apply foam tape to the bottom of the fan
plenum to reduce improper air movement.
Use silicone sealant to close other gaps.
— LOCK OUT / TAG OUT —
5. Lift fan plenum and remove screws holding bottom of motor to fan basket.
6. Replace fan motor and blade.
7. Lower fan plenum.
8. Reconnect fan to wiring harness.
9. Turn on power.
10. Verify that motor is working and blade is
turning in the correct direction.
Product will be degraded and may spoil if
allowed to sit in a non-refrigerated area.
12. Reinstall display pans. Bring merchandiser
to operating temperature before restocking.
