PERLICK RESIDENTIAL INSTALLATION MANUAL

SAFETY

PLEASE READ all instructions completely before attempting to install or operate the unit. Take particular note of the

DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION information in the manual. The information is important for the safe and efficient installation, operation and care of your Perlick unit.

DANGER

Indicates a hazard that WILL result in serious injury or death if precautions are not followed.

WARNING

Indicates a hazard MAY cause serious injury or death if precautions are not followed.

CAUTION

Indicates a hazard where minor injury or product damage may occur if precautions are not followed.

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Carefully inspect cabinet for hidden damage. If damage is discovered, file your claim immediately with the transport company. Perlick is not responsible for damage in transit.

CAUTION When moving the unit, be sure to protect finished flooring with

appropriate material to avoid damage from moving the unit.

CAUTION Do not lift unit by drawer, shelving or door handles, as damage to the

unit could occur if not moved as instructed.

WARNING To prevent personal injury, a minimum of two people are

required to lift the unit. Larger units may require additional personnel.

Before moving the unit, secure the door shut with tape to prevent door from swinging open while being moved. Carefully move unit to installation site and place in front of opening.

CAUTION If unit has been laid on its back or sides, place unit upright and allow

minimum of 24 hours before connecting power.

PLUMBING

No plumbing connections are required. Condensate from the cooling coil is automatically evaporated through a condensate pan located in the condensing section of the unit.

ELECTRICAL

A 115 volt, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit breaker and electrical supply are required. A separate circuit is required for each Perlick unit installed.

Follow the National Electrical Code and any local codes or ordinances when installing the receptacle.

All Perlick units come equipped with a NEMA 5-15P 90° plug with a 5’ cord extending beyond the rear of the cabinet. The electrical outlet must be flush with, or recessed into, the wall surface for all HP, HC and HA models.

HH (Sottile) models have a recess at the rear of the cabinet to accomodate the plug and keep a true 18” depth. See Figure 1 below for the cut-out in the back panel for the electrical outlet location.

PERLICK RESIDENTIAL INSTALLATION MANUAL

DANGER Serious Electrocution Hazard! Electrical grounding is required.

This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) polarized plug for your protection against possible shock hazards. Failure to comply with these electrical guidelines may result in possible death or serious injury, fire, or loss of property.

•Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug.

•Never use a 2-prong adapter.

•Never use extension cord to connect power to the unit.

•If a 2-prong receptacle is encountered, or a longer power cord is required, contact a qualified electrician to have it replaced in accordance with applicable electrical codes.

ADDITIONAL GENERAL INFORMATION

•All electrical instructions assume the outlet is located 4” - 10” above the floor surface.

•Floor must be level in area of installation. Leg levelers are used for fine-tune adjustment only and should not be used to compensate for floor differences exceeding 1/2”.

INSTALLATION

Unit may tip forward if loaded racks/shelves are all pulled out at the same time. To prevent tipping, and to provide stable installation, the unit must be secured in place with the anti-tip brackets supplied with the unit. The anti-tip brackets, when properly installed, should secure the rear legs/glides to the mounting surface and prevent the unit from tipping forward.

NOTE: Anti-tip brackets are only used for stationary cabinets and should not be installed on cabinets with accessory casters. Caster kits are available for HP, HC and HA model cabinets. Refer to the instructions supplied with the caster kit for proper installation.

NOTE: If installing on a concrete floor, concrete fasteners are required and not included with the anti-tip kit.

NOTE: Some installation sites may require modifications to provide a secure surface for attaching the brackets.

A set of anti-tip brackets is supplied with the unit. These brackets should be attached to the floor at the rear of the unit. Each bracket must be located to engage the rear glides when the cabinet is pushed back into position. Refer to Figures 2A, 2B and 3 (shown below) for anti-tip bracket mounting locations.

PERLICK RESIDENTIAL INSTALLATION MANUAL

PREPARING THE SPACE

CAUTION If the unit is to be installed under a countertop, it is recommended

that the countertop be supported by a structure other than the unit itself to prevent damage to the unit.

CAUTION Make sure the floor under the unit is level with the surrounding

finished floor. Protect a finished floor with plywood, cardboard, or some other suitable material before moving the unit into place. Failure to do this may result in damage to the floor.

1). Make sure the space opening is correctly sized for the unit. See chart below for finished rough opening requirements:

HA24 24” ADA-Compliant Series
Height		Depth	Width
32-1/2”		24”	24”

NOTE: For a cabinet door to open properly, the door must open a minimum of 90°. Use a minimum 3” filler in corner installations to assure a full 90° opening. Allow 25” clearance in front of unit for full door swing and shelf/drawer pull out for all units.

2). Check that the following are level and square:

•Front and interior opening

•Installation opening and floor surface

•Countertop bottom front edge

NOTE: The floor under the unit must be at the same level as the surrounding finished floor.

CAUTION To prevent possible damage to the countertop, do not place heavy

objects on countertop directly over unit.

INSTALLING THE UNIT

1). Plug the unit into the 15 amp grounded electrical outlet located within the installation opening. With power applied to the unit, check that the lighting and cooling functions operate properly. Turn off the power to the wall outlet at the circuit breaker.

2). With all surfaces in the installation opening square and level, refer to Figure 4 on page 7 and perform the following steps to level the unit:

•At the front of the opening, measure from the floor to the bottom of the front edge of the countertop.

•Measure from the floor surface to the top of the unit at the rear corners.

•Adjust the unit legs so these two measurements are equal. Using an adjustable wrench or pliers, turn legs clockwise to lower the unit or counterclockwise to raise it.

NOTE: Legs should not extend more than 3/4” from the bottom of the unit.

3). Slide the unit into position in the opening. Make sure the rear leveling legs slide under the ant-tip brackets. Push the unit into the opening until the bottom front edge of the unit is flush with the surrounding cabinetry, or until the rear legs are tight against the anti-tip brackets.

4). Shim the front of the unit so the front face is flush with the surrounding cabinetry. Adjust the front legs to support the countertop at the shimmed height. Using an adjustable wrench or pliers, turn the legs clockwise to lower the unit or counterclockwise to raise it. Countertop should be resting on top of the unit.

NOTE: Countertop should be resting evenly on entire top of the unit. Shim if necessary to prevent damage to the countertop.

Figure 4. Leveling the Unit

5). Check interior door openings to make sure the unit is level and square. Install shelving and/or drawers. Place the slide brackets squarely into the bracket grooves. When installed properly, a “click” should be heard from the slide bracket retaining tabs and the brackets should slide smoothly. The retaining tabs will stop the shelf/drawer when pulled out to full extension.

6). Turn on the power to the wall outlet at the circuit breaker.

NOTE: Improper shelf/drawer installation may not actuate slide mechanism.

PERLICK RESIDENTIAL INSTALLATION MANUAL

TOE PLATE INSTALLATION

Once the unit is secured in place, install the louvered toe plate. Secure the plate by snapping the latch into the latch catch on the unit (Figure 5).

CAUTION The toe plate must be removed to service the unit. The floor cannot

interfere with removal, and the louvered sections must not be covered or obstructed. Obstructions could prevent proper air circulation, which may damage the unit.

NOTE: To achieve maximum performance, interior louver openings and fan guard openings should never be obstructed.
