INSPECTION
When the equipment is received, all items should be carefully checked against the Bill
of Lading to insure all crates and cartons have been received. Do not sign the freight
bill clear until the freight has been properly inspected for damage. All units should be
inspected for damage including concealed damage by uncrating immediately. If any
damage is found, it should be reported to the carrier at once, noted on the Bill of Lading
and a claim should be filed with the carrier. This equipment has been inspected and
tested in the manufacturing facility and has been crated in accordance with
transportation rules and guidelines. The manufacture is not responsible for freight loss
or damages.
INSTALLATION
The unit has been secured to the shipping base with four bolts. Remove these bolts
and separate the unit from the shipping base. Locate the casters or legs found inside
the unit. Attach the casters or legs to the unit base by screwing them into the threaded
fittings that were used to secure the shipping base. Use the wrench provided to tighten
the casters to the unit. The casters with the brakes should be installed on the front of
the unit. For proper drainage of condensate, the unit should be level when placed in its
permanent location. Leveling shims are included in the accessories package in the
cabinet. Loosen the casters and insert shims between caster and bottom of the unit.
Retighten the caster.
The exterior of the cabinet and doors have been protected by a plastic covering. Peel
this protective covering before installation. After removing the covering, clean the
interior and exterior surfaces of the unit with soap and water and a rinse with clean
water. Do not use chlorinated cleaners on the surfaces as they can cause corrosion.
If the door(s) have come out of alignment during shipping they will need to be adjusted.
This can be accomplished by opening the door(s) and loosening the screws that hold
both the top and bottom hinges to the cabinet. After adjusting the door so it is aligned
correct, tighten the screws to securely hold the hinges and door(s) in place. The door on
a single door unit can be reversed in the field by installing Hinge Kit part number
146524 available from your parts dealer.
The shelves and self clips are packaged inside the unit. Install the shelf clips on the
pilasters inside the unit and set the shelves on the clips. The shelves are adjustable in
½” increments.

The refrigeration system located at the bottom of the unit requires free air access for
proper operation. Allow a minimum of seven inches between the back of the cabinet
and the wall. Do not locate the unit next to heat generating equipment or in direct
sunlight.
Confirm that the proposed electrical outlet has the correct voltage, frequency and
current carrying capacity for the requirements of the unit. This information is noted on
the data plate on the inside left wall of the unit. The unit should be isolated on a circuit.
Do not use an extension cord to get power to the unit. Improper electrical installations
will void the compressor warranty.
OPERATION
Once the unit is connected to the proper power supply, the display panel will be lit for
two (2) seconds followed by a beep, and then the cabinet temperature will be displayed
and the compressor will start to run. The compressor is running whenever ‘comp’ is lit
on the display. If the cabinet temperature is higher than 68˚F (refrigerator) or 14˚F
(freezers) the display will read <Hi> and lower than14˚F (refrigerator) or -50˚F (freezer)
the display will read <Lo>. If the unit does not start immediately, check the power
switch located on the bottom of the top grill. If the cabinet temperature is below 14˚F
(freezer) or 50˚F (refrigerator) when the unit is plugged in there will be a three minute
delay before the compressor will start.
The interior light will come on when a door is opened.
Whenever a door is opened the door open light on the display will be lit and the
evaporator fans will stop. The fans will start three seconds after the door is closed. If a
door is open for more than 30 seconds, the door open alarm will beep two times. If a
door is open more than 60 seconds, the alarm beeps five times and if open more than
five minutes the alarm will beep continuously.
The electronic control has an alarm function to remind the operator to periodically clean
the condenser coil. The condenser coil will collect dust and debris during normal
operation. If left unclean, this will lead to poor performance, high energy consumption
and possible compressor failure. Warranties do not cover failures related to condenser
cleaning. At 6 month intervals the display will blink “CL” and the buzzer will sound to
remind the operator to clean the condenser coil. After one hour the buzzer will stop but
the display will continue to blink “CL”. Refer to the ‘MAINTENANCE’ section of this
manual to learn how to clean the condenser coil. The electronic control can be reset to
normal operation by pressing the ‘Mode’ and ‘Verify’ buttons at the same time for five
seconds. Depending on conditions, the condenser coil may require more frequent
cleaning.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Beginning with the initial installation, the interior surfaces of the cabinet should be
periodically cleaned with a solution of warm water and baking soda. This solution will
remove any odors from spillage that has occurred. The exterior of the cabinet should
also be cleaned frequently with a commercial stainless steel cleaner, glass cleaner or
mild soap solution. Do not use chlorinated cleaners on the stainless steel surfaces.
The door gaskets should be cleaned in place with a mild soap solution to extend their
life.
The shelving can be and cleaned in a sink with a mild soap solution and a soft bristled
brush.
Condenser Coil
Prior to cleaning the condenser coil disconnect the unit from power. Periodic cleaning of
the condenser coil will aid the heat transfer of the refrigeration system and increase its
efficiency. Cleaning is recommended a minimum of every 6 months. To accomplish
this, remove the lower front grill from the cabinet. The condenser coil is located behind
the grill. Use a soft bristled brush to remove any dirt particles that are on the fins of the
condenser coil. Use a vacuum cleaner or compressed air to remove the loosened
particles. Replace the front grill and reconnect the unit to power. Failure to clean the
condenser coil can lead to performance loss and compressor failure.

Setting Temperature-
The temperature set point is adjustable from -22˚F to 8˚F for the freezers and 25˚F to
50˚F for refrigerators. The default set point is -5˚F for freezers and 36˚F for refrigerators.
To set or adjust the cabinet temperature;
• Press the ‘Mode/Set’ button.
• Press the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ button until<St> is displayed.

Setting Temperature Differential-
The temperature differential is the amount of swing that the cabinet temperature does
either side of the temperature set point. If the temperature set point is 36˚F and the
temperature differential is 8˚F, the compressor will start when the control shows 40˚F
and stop when the control shows 32˚F. The default temperature differential set point is
8˚F and the range is 4˚F to 16˚F.
