All safety messages will alert you about the potential hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and let you know what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

**** Before the appliance is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

DANGER:

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do not use an extension cord.
Replace all panels before operating.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is disconnected. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or death.
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
This appliance is CFC- and HFC-free and contains small quantities of Isobutane (R600a) which is environmentally friendly, but flammable. It does not damage the ozone layer, nor does it increase the greenhouse effect. Care must be taken during transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can ignite and may damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
o Avoid open flames and anything that creates a spark,
o Disconnect from the electrical power line,
o Air the room in which the appliance is located for several minutes, and
o Contact the Service Department for advice.
The more coolant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the appliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases building up
For every ounce of coolant at least 325 cubic feet of room space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate on the back of the appliance. It is hazardous for anyone other than an Authorized Service Person to carry out servicing or repairs to this appliance.
Take serious care when handling, moving, and using the appliance to avoid either damaging the refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before Using your Appliance

Remove the exterior and interior packing and leave doors open for a while to air out the unit.
Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Installation of your Appliance

NOTE: Do not store or install the appliance outdoors.

The appliance is designed for free-standing installation only.

CAUTION: This appliance is designed for the storage and display of beverages, sealed food, and other non-critical items. Do not store vaccines or medication with temperature-specific requirements.

Place your Cold Zone® refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level the unit, adjust the legs at the front of cabinet. Leave at least 4 inches (100mm) of space at the back of the unit to allow proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.
Take care that the condenser at the rear of the appliance is never covered or blocked in any way.

NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator or other heating source. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Don’t install in a location where the temperature will fall below 60°F (16°C). For best performance, do not install the appliance behind a cabinet door or block the rear grille.

Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the Cold Zone® refrigerator into an exclusive, properly grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service center.

Electrical Connection

WARNING: Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified electrician or an authorized service center.

This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three-prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~ 60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling.

The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheating. Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

It is recommended you install the appliance in a place where the ambient temperature is between 65ºF and 90ºF (18Cº to 32ºC). If the ambient temperature is above or below the recommended temperatures, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, placing your unit in extremely cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate.

When the unit is first turned on, allow it to operate for about an hour to cool the interior before placing items inside.

Placing Items in the Appliance
The Cold Zone® refrigerator employs a system of forced circulation of cold air. If this circulation isobstructed, items will not be adequately refrigerated. Take note of the following points:

Do not let items obstruct the cold air inlet and suction outlet.
Place items so that they do not protrude beyond the shelves. The gap between the shelves and the doors is intentional, and is designed to allow free circulation of cold air.
Arrange items evenly on all shelves.
Do not display items on the floor of the interior cabinet. Items must be placed on the shelves

Shelves

Some units may be equipped with adjustable or removable shelves.

Removable Shelves

There are four removable shelves inside the unit
To prevent damaging the door gaskets, make sure to have the door(s) all the way open when pulling the shelves out of the rail compartments.
Before removing a shelf from the inner rails, make sure to remove all shelf contents first.

Adjustable Shelves

If your unit has adjustable shelves, first remove all shelf contents.
Remove the shelves from the unit, making sure to open the doors fully to prevent damaging the door gaskets.
Adjust the brackets hanging on the pilasters to your desired height, then replace the shelves onto the brackets.

Defrosting

Defrosting is performed automatically and drain water is collected in the drain tray at the back of the unit. Water in the drain tray is normally evaporated automatically. Under humid conditions, a large amount of water may accumulate in the drain tray, which may have to be emptied manually.

Changing the Light Canopy Logo

The light canopy, which runs along the top of the unit, can be replaced with a customized plastic
sign, if desired. To change the light canopy display, follow these steps:

Locate the two screws on the top of either end of the canopy, and remove them using a Phillips head screwdriver or drill bit.
Pull the top of the canopy up and off of the unit.
Slide the blank white plastic display up and out. It can now be replaced with your customized display.
NOTE: Your customized display must be 35.67” W x 2.67” H (906mm W x 68mm H).
Once your display is in place, replace the canopy top, being careful the new display sits inside the notch which runs along of the box top. This will ensure the display is secure and aligned properly in your unit.
Replace the two screws on either end of the canopy, to secure the top in place.

Energy-Saving Tips

Be sure the unit is installed in a well-ventilated area. Never cover air vents.
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances and out of direct sunlight.
To minimize the escape of cold air, open and close the doors quickly, and do not keep the doors open any longer than necessary.
