Avoid direct sun rays.
Make sure all accessories are installed (i.e
shelves, shelf clips, casters) before plugging the
unit in.
Please read through the manual in its entirety.
CABINET LOCATION GUIDELINES
Install the unit on strong and leveled surfaces
•
Unit may make unpleasant noises if surface
is uneven
•
Unit may malfunction if surface is uneven
Install the unit in an indoor, well‐ventilated
area
•
•
•
Unit performs more efficiently in a well‐
ventilated area
For best performance, please maintain
clearance of 4” on the back of the unit.
Outdoor use may cause decreased
efficiency and damage to the unit.
PROHIBTION
Avoid installation in a high humidity and/or
dusty area
Do not attempt to remove or repair any
component unless instructed by factory.
Make sure that the unit is not resting on or
against the electrical cord and the plug.
Do not store any flammable and explosive gas
or liquids inside the unit.
•
•
Humidity could cause unit to rust and
decrease efficiency of the unit
Dust collected on the condenser coil will
cause unit to malfunction. Clean the
condenser at least once a month with a
brush or a clean cloth.
Do not attempt to alter or tamper with the
electrical cord.
Select a location away from heat and
moisture‐generating equipment
•
High ambient temperatures will cause the
compressor to overwork, leading to higher
energy bills and gradual breakdown of the
unit
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT!!! PLEASE READ BEFORE
INSTALLATION
The refrigeration system operates most
efficiently when installed in an area with cool,
dry air circulation.
There must be at least 6 inches of clearance on
both sides and the back of the cabinet.
Select a location away from the heat and
moisture generating equipment such as stoves,
ovens, etc.
ELECTRICAL
Please ensure that the required voltage of the
compressor is being supplied at all times. Low or
high voltage can detrimentally affect the
refrigeration unit. All units should be plugged into a
grounded and properly sized electrical outlet with
appropriate overcurrent protection. Please refer to

the electrical requirement on the nameplate. Please
make sure that your unit has its own dedicated
outlet. Do not use an extension cord.
after the first defrost cycle.
Routine Maintenance
The temperature controls are preset at the factory
to maintain an average temperature of 38 F in
refrigerators. To maintain a different temperature,
simply adjust the control knob located inside the
unit. Temperature ranges from 7 (coldest) to 1
(warmest). Setting the temperature control to the
coldest setting may cause the evaporator coil to
freeze and ice up. This will eventually make the
cabinet become warm, which is not recommended.
Cleaning the Interior
Be sure to turn the temperature control to “OFF”
and unplug the electrical cord. Wash the inside
surface of the storage area with warm water and
baking soda solution (about one tablespoon of
baking soda per quart of warm water). Rinse
thoroughly with clean, warm water and wipe dry.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the cabinet exterior occasionally with a cloth
dampened in mild detergent and water. Rinse and
wipe dry with a soft cloth. Do not use razor blades
or other sharp instruments that can scratch the
appliance surface when removing adhesive labels.
Any glue left from the tape can be removed with a
mixture of warm water and mild detergent or touch
the residue with the sticky side of tape already
removed. DO NOT REMOVE THE SERIAL PLATE.
Appliance Start‐up
Once the appliance has been located in its
permanent location and the proper power and
grounding has been provided, the following items
must be checked or completed:
Condensate Pan
Cool Down Period
Some models have a condensate pan in a fixed
position located behind the toe grill. This must not
be removed from under the cabinet. If the pan is
removed, condensate will drop onto the floor.
For safe food storage, allow 24 hours for the
appliance to cool down completely before loading
with food. The appliance will run continuously for
the first several hours. Do not place any food in the
appliance until after the first 24 hours of operation.
POWER FAILURE
DO NOT open the appliance lid unnecessarily if the
appliance is off for several hours. If a power failure
occurs, pack seven or eight pounds of dry ice into
the appliance every 24 hours. Look in the Yellow
Pages under “Dry Ice”, “Dairies”, or “Ice Cream
Manufacturers” for local dry ice suppliers. Always
wear gloves and use caution when handling dry ice.
Thermostat Setting
The appliance is shipped from the factory with the
thermostat set at about the midpoint of the
operating range. Adjustments colder or warmer can
be made after the appliance has been running for at
least 8 hours. Allow at least 8 hours for temperature
stabilization before readjusting the thermostat.
Defrost Setting
Operation
The appliance is designed to defrost automatically
every 12 hours. To set the time of defrost, wait until
the desired time to defrost. With the notch on the
timer knob aligned with the line on the bracket (Fig.
A), turn the defrost timer knob clockwise slowly.
The timer will click several times, then once loudly,
at which point the defrost cycle begins. The timer
knob will advance through the defrost cycle, then
click loudly at the end of the cycle (Fig. B). The
appliance will defrost automatically every 12 hours
Run the unit for at least 24 hours before
loading.
When loading the unit:
•
Be careful not to block the air duct located
at the back and the fan on the ceiling of the
unit with contents.
•
Blocking the air flow may cause decrease in
performance.

This appliance operates more efficiently in a
cooler ambient than in a hot ambient. Try to
maintain an ambient below 80ºF (27ºC) and
65% RH (Relative Humidity) for maximum
efficiency.
•
For the best performance, maintain at least
4 inches of clearance in between the
contents and the air duct.
Set the shelves that come with the unit to fit
your needs.
Temperature controller:
Periods of Non‐use and Moving Tips
Leave the appliance operating during periods of
non‐use of less than three (3) weeks.
•
The controller is located at the right, front
corner of the ceiling.
Temperature is set as “4” at default.
•
Do not leave the unit door open for a long
period of time. For the most efficient operation,
close the door immediately after use.
Long Periods of Non‐use
If the appliance will not be used for several months:
Remove all food and unplug the power cord.
Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
Leave the appliance door open slightly, blocking
it open if necessary, to prevent odor and mold
growth.
Energy Conservation Measures
This appliance is designed for efficiency with heavy
foam insulation. However, there are things that the
user can do to maintain the appliance in operating
condition.
Do not operate the appliance any colder than
necessary to maintain safe, product storage
temperatures.
Make sure the appliance is located to prevent
direct exposure to sunlight, air ducts, etc.
Keep the door closed except for normal use.
Inspect the door often to see that it self‐closes
and the gaskets are in good condition.
Do not overstock the product in the cabinet
because it will block the normal air flow.
Have at least annual inspections by a qualified
service company to see that the refrigerant
charge is correct.
Moving
When moving the appliance, follow these guidelines
to prevent damage:
Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall
outlet.
Remove foods, then defrost, and clean the
appliance.
Secure all loose items such as base panel,
baskets, and shelves by taping them securely in
place to prevent damage.
In the moving vehicle, secure appliance in an
upright position to prevent movement. Also,
protect outside of appliance with a blanket or
similar item.
