Common refrigeration components, and a brief  
description of the normal operating sounds they make,  
are listed below. NOTE: Your product may not contain all  
of the components listed.  
2. Disconnect the power cord from its outlet, and leave it  
disconnected until the unit is returned to service.  
3. Clean and dry the interior of the cabinet (See CLEANING  
AND MAINTENANCE: GENERAL CLEANING).  
Compressor: The compressor makes a hum or pulsing  
sound that may be heard when it operates.  
4. During periods of non-use, the cabinet must remain  
open to prevent the formation of mold and mildew.  
Open door a minimum of 2 in. (5 cm) to provide the  
necessary ventilation.  
Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator  
may sound like boiling liquid.  
Condenser Fan: Air moving through a condenser may be  
heard.  
Product Disposal  
Automatic Defrost/Drain Pan: Water may be heard  
dripping or running into the drain pan when the unit is in  
the defrost cycle.  
If the unit is being removed from service for disposal,  
check and obey all Federal, State and/or Local regulations  
regarding the disposal and recycling of refrigeration  
appliances, and follow these steps completely:  
Outdoor, Marine and RV Usage  
Some U-Line models are designed to operate in outdoor,  
marine and RV environments. For best performance, keep  
the unit out of direct sunlight.  
1. Remove all consumable contents from the unit.  
2. Disconnect power to the unit and unplug the power  
cord from its outlet.  
• If the unit will be shut off for five days or more, prop  
door open to allow for air circulation and prevent mold  
and mildew.  
DANGER  
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPEMENT. Before you throw  
away your old refrigerator or freezer, take off the  
doors and leave shelves in place so that children  
may not easily climb inside.  
IMPORTANT  
If the ambient temperature is expected to drop  
below 50°F, turn off and unplug unit, and drain all  
water from the unit to prevent freezing damage not  
covered by the warranty.  
3. Remove the cabinet door.

Maintenance  
5 Cleaning and Maintenance  
General Cleaning  
Proper maintenance of your U-Line product will ensure  
efficiency, top performance and long life. The  
maintenance intervals listed are based on normal  
conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you  
have pets or other special considerations.  
Exterior Cleaning (As Required)  
Vinyl Clad (Black or White) Models:  
• Surfaces may be cleaned with a mild detergent and  
warm water solution. Do not use solvent-based or  
abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with  
clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent  
water spotting.  
• Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass  
cleaner.  
Stainless Doors:  
• Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor  
when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt  
water or cleaners with bleach.  
• Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with  
a good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish  
®
on a monthly basis. For best results use Claire Stainless  
Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from  
U-Line Corporation (P/N 173348). Comparable products  
are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface  
contamination that could lead to rust. Some  
installations may require cleaning on a weekly basis.  
• Do not clean with steel wool pads.  
• Do not use stainless steel cleaners/polishes on  
any glass surfaces.  
• Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass  
cleaner.  
• Do not use cleaners that are not specifically  
intended for stainless steel on stainless surfaces  
(this includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).  
• If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it  
®
®
quickly with Bon-Ami or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser  
and a non-abrasive cloth. Always clean in the direction  
of the grain. Always finish this process 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 to become  
blurred.  
• Rust that is not cleaned up promptly can penetrate into  
the surface of the stainless steel and complete removal  
of the rust may not be possible.  
Interior Cleaning (As Required)  
• Disconnect power to the unit. Clean the interior and all  
removed components using a mild non-abrasive  
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 transmit taste to the  
interior products and damage or discolor the interior.

4. Dampen a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth in clean  
water and wipe down the cabinet interior and removed  
components to remove any detergent residue. Rinse the  
sponge or cloth in clean water and repeat as necessary  
until the cabinet and components are clean.  
Defrosting  
Automatic (Cycle) Defrost Models  
Automatic defrost models do not produce frost in normal  
operating conditions. However, a frost pattern may be  
noticed on the interior walls if the unit is repeatedly  
opened in a high heat or high humidity location. If this  
frost pattern does not clear within 24 hours, your unit will  
require manual defrosting.  
5. When the interior is dry, turn unit on.  
Leveling  
It is important that units equipped with adjustable feet  
are level, for proper door and ice maker (if equipped)  
WARNING  
DO NOT use any type of electrical heating device,  
ice pick, knife or other sharp instrument to  
defrost; this could damage the inner lining or  
refrigeration system and void the warranty.  
IMPORTANT  
The drain pan was not designed to capture the  
water created when manually defrosting. To  
prevent water from overflowing the drain pan,  
place towels or other absorbent materials over the  
interior drain trough, under the evaporator (Figure  
7, 1), before defrosting.
