CLEARANCE AND PLACEMENT
Placement
Consider the following when selecting a location for your Refrigerator:
Clearance:
- Must not be covered – Top
- 0″ – Left
- 0″ – Right
- 2″ – Rear
- 0″ – Below
Floor Load: The floor on which the Refrigerator is located must be even
and level, free from vibrations, and strong enough to support the combined
weights of the unit and maximum product load.
Ventilation: Grille area at the front must be free and clear of any
object or wall.
Power Outlet: The installation of this appliance requires a dedicated
power outlet located within the length of the unit’s power cord and accessible
for the purpose to disconnect power.
UNPACKING AND SETTING UP
Carefully inspect the shipping carton for damage. This is the only time that shipping damage may be claimed. If damage is suspected, open the carton immediately and, if there is damage, retain the carton and contact the shipper to make a claim. Do NOT contact the manufacturer.
Uncrating
Tools Needed: ¾” box wrench, adjustable wrench, level, flat head screwdriver,
and box cutter.
- First, remove the cardboard top capping, all clear tape, and all staples including those at the bottom of the cardboard carton and skid.
- Next, start from the top of the carton. Using the box cutter, carefully make one continuous cut to the bottom of the skid. Remove the cardboard carton and discard.
- Then, move the unit as close to the final position as possible before removing the skid.
- Remove the brackets securing the unit to the skid.
Note: The skid must be removed before the casters or legs can be attached.
Do NOT tip the unit on its front or sides. If tipped onto the back, the unit must not be started for 3 hours.
Skid Removal and Caster Attachment
Tip the unit forward and remove the skid.
WARNING
Risk of personal injury.
The unit must be securely supported while attaching casters or legs.
- Remove the shipping bolts using the ¾” box wrench while the cabinet is held in one direction. Repeat the process while the cabinet is held in the opposite direction.
- None of the threads on the leg or caster stem should be visible once screwed in.
- Tilt the cabinet in one direction approximately 8” and block it securely with pieces of 2×4 lumber or other suitable material.
- Thread the stem casters or legs into the ½ -13 holes in the bottom of the cabinet. Tighten by hand as much as possible. Some models may already have levelers installed. If so, then the levelers will need to first be removed and discarded.
- Once the caster or leg cannot be turned any further, use a 3/4 inch wrench to tighten the nut in between the mounting plate and the wheel of the caster until snug.
- Repeat this procedure with the unit secured in the opposite direction so as to access the remaining legs/ casters/levelers
- If plate casters or legs are installed instead of stem casters or legs, then repeat step 3 above and secure the plate with either #14 AB screws, or ¼-20 screws, depending upon which are required.
- If levelers are employed, then repeat step 3 above and thread the leveler in place. Then repeat step 6.
Leveling:
Cabinets must be leveled when installed. The level should be measured on the
headrail.
Failure to level your cabinet may result in the door not sealing, closing
correctly, or condensed water draining not draining properly.
For cabinets with legs, rotate the foot of the leg with an adjustable wrench
to achieve desired height for leveling. For cabinets with casters, leveling
can be achieved by placing large washers in between the ½’ stud and the holes
located on the bottom of the case.
CAUTION Do NOT loosen casters to level the cabinet. Casters MUST be
tightly secured to the cabinet for full strength.
Install or attach any accessories that will be used Remove any plastic
covering the stainless steel.
ELECTRICAL
This is a cord-connected unit and must be connected to its own dedicated
power supply. Check the data plate on the machine to confirm the voltage and
per the data, the plate uses the correct fuses or HACR circuit breakers.
Note: Do not connect to GFI / GFCI outlets. Connection to that type of
outlet can result in product loss due to unsafe cabinet temperature when the
GFI device trips from moisture.
Power Cord
This 115-volt model is equipped with a cord and 5-15P plug.
If the power cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced with an identical cord.
Follow All National and Local Codes
This unit must be grounded. Do not use extension cords and do not disable or bypass the ground prong on the electrical plug.
Initial Start-Up
Plug the power cord into the proper power supply.
The cabinet will soon begin to blow warm air out of the bottom area, and the inside wall of the cabinet will begin to become cold.
The cabinet temperature has been set at the factory and should not need adjustment, however, if it was changed, the standard setting is 0º F.
Cautions
CAUTION
Care must be taken whenever moving or servicing the unit. The refrigerant is
contained in a sealed system, but if released it may be flammable.
USING THE UNIT
The operation is simple, just keep it connected to the correct power supply
and the refrigerator will maintain the internal temperature it has been set
to. Keep the doors closed as much as possible to avoid unnecessary run time.
The controller displays the current internal temperature.
Adjusting the set temperature lower will NOT cause the system to lower the
temperature faster. When on, the refrigeration system is always operating at
maximum. For best results, make certain the unit remains powered and has
achieved the desired set point before loading it with the product. Pull-down
time will vary depending upon the type of unit and ambient conditions The
temperature was set at the factory at 0º F, but you can adjust it to your own
selected temperature. 30 seconds after adjustment, the display automatically
reverts to showing the current temperature.
The compressor and condenser fan motor will only be on when the controller
senses an increase in the internal cabinet temperature passed the set point
The freezer will automatically defrost as needed, there is no set time for
defrosting. Push and immediately release the “melting” or defrost button for a
manual defrost.
Note: Holding the defrost button in too long will shut the controller
off.
The internal fan will be on when the compressor is on.
In most cases the only thing displayed will be the cabinet temperature. When something other than a normal operation has occurred, a message will be shown.
Message Displayed | Why | What to do |
---|---|---|
Hi | Cabinet temperature too warm | Confirm doors or drawers are closed. |
dOr | Door is open | Close the door, if the message does not change, call for |
service.
LE| Compressor run time too long| Check doors closed. If yes, call for
service.

FOR THE SERVICE TECH – R290
Refrigeration service should only be attempted by a trained trade professional certified to work on R290 systems.
Here are some critical service items.
This list does not qualify anyone to service the unit. It is a reminder and
checklist for the service tech. Keep these in mind for the R290 service:
- Wire nuts are NOT to be used when changing an electrical part.
- The switches in this product are sealed, only exact replacement s may be used.
- The process tubes are to be used for service access.
- Cut out (with tubing cutter) refrigeration components that are to be replaced. Do NOT un-braze.
- Because R290 can be vented into the air during service, the venting MUST be in an area free from flame or spark. It must also be in a well-ventilated area, with a nearby open window or door.
- A sign noting the service of a system containing propane must be attached to the unit during refrigeration service.
- A combustible gas leak detector must be used to inform anyone in the area when propane is present in the air.
Other Information:
Evacuation: It is critical that a refrigeration system be leak free and
internally dry. A thorough evacuation with a good vacuum pump with a micron
gauge attached is the only way to ensure that the system is dry and ready for
a charge of refrigerant.
Charging: The system is critically charged and the proper type and amount
MUST be weighed in.
Overcharge symptoms: The unit will cool properly but the suction line
temperature will be unusually cold. Compressor run time will be longer than
normal.
Undercharge symptoms: Long run time, poor cooling, and a hot compressor
dome is the main symptom of an undercharge.
