INSTALLATION TIP
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cut-out
opening, adjust the rear feet to achieve a total unit rear
height of 1/8" (3 mm) less than the opening’s rear height.
Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front
feet. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the
opening. Adjust the front feet to level the unit after it is
correctly positioned in the opening.

EXTERIOR CLEANING
Stainless Models
Stainless door panels and handles can discolor when
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or
cleaners with bleach.
Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a
good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner and polish
monthly. For best results use Claire
Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line
Corporation (Part Number 173348). Comparable products
are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface
contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations
may require cleaning weekly.
Do not clean with steel wool pads.
Do not use stainless steel cleaners or polishes on
any glass surfaces.
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass
cleaner.
®
Stainless Steel
Integrated Models
To clean integrated panels, use household cleaner per the
cabinet manufacturer’s recommendation.
INTERIOR CLEANING
Disconnect power to the unit.
Clean the interior and all removed components using a
mild nonabrasive detergent and warm water solution
applied with a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.
Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean water.
Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive
cleaners. These types of cleaners may transfer taste to
the interior products and damage or discolor the lining.
DEFROSTING
Minor frost on the rear wall or visible through the
evaporator plate vents is normal and will melt during each
off cycle. If there is excessive build-up of 1/4" (6 mm) or
more, manually defrost the unit.
Do not use cleaners not specifically intended for
stainless steel on stainless steel surfaces (this
includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).
If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it
quickly with Bon-Ami
and a nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain.
Always finish with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner
or comparable product to prevent further problems.
Using abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite™ will
cause the graining in the stainless steel to
become blurred.
Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the
surface of the stainless steel and complete
removal of the rust may not be possible.
®
or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser®
Ensure the door is closing and sealing properly.
High ambient temperature and excessive humidity can
also produce frost.
CAUTION
!
DO NOT use an ice pick or other sharp
instrument to help speed up defrosting. These
instruments can puncture the inner lining or
damage the cooling unit. DO NOT use any type of
heater to defrost. Using a heater to speed up
defrosting can cause personal injury and
damage to the inner lining.

Troubleshooting
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
If you think your U-Line product is malfunctioning, read
the OP[ERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this guide to
understand clearly the function of the control.
If the problem persists, read the NORMAL OPERATING
SOUNDS, TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE and CONTROL
OPTIONS sections below to help you quickly identify
common problems, and possible causes and remedies.
Most often, this will resolve the problem without the need
to call for service.
IF SERVICE IS REQUIRED
If you do not understand a troubleshooting remedy, or
your product needs service, contact U-Line Corporation
directly. Contact information appears on the rear cover of
this guide.
When you call, you will need your product Model and
Serial Numbers. This information appears on the Model
and Serial number plate located on the upper right or rear
wall of the interior of your product.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
All models incorporate rigid foam insulated cabinets to
provide high thermal efficiency and maximum sound
reduction for its internal working components. Despite this
technology, your model may make sounds that are
unfamiliar.
Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable because
of the unit’s environment. Hard surfaces such as cabinets,
wood, vinyl or tiled floors and paneled walls have a
tendency to reflect normal appliance operating noises.
Listed below are common refrigeration components with
brief description of the normal operating sounds they
make. NOTE: Your product may not contain all the
components listed.
• Compressor: The compressor makes a hum or pulsing
sound that may be heard when it operates.
• Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator
may sound like boiling liquid.
• Condenser Fan: Air moving through a condenser may
be heard.
• Automatic Defrost Drain Pan: Water may be heard
dripping or running into the drain pan when the unit is
in the defrost cycle.
