Clearance:

• 12 in. at the top
• 3.0 in. at the rear,
• 0.0 in. at the left side
• 0.0 in. at the right side
• 3.0 in at the bottom

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 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 be accessible for the purpose to disconnect power.

UNPACKING AND SET 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 screw driver, and box cutter.

1. Cut the stretch wrap along a corner post and remove the cardboard top capping and the corner posts.

2. Discard stretch wrap and any cardboard that will not be recycled.
   Note: additional clear plastic protective wrap is applied directly to any product with a glass door.

3. Move unit as close to final position as possible before removing the skid.
   Note: The skid must be removed before the casters or legs can be attached.
   Do NOT tip unit on its front or sides. If tipped onto the back, unit must not be started for 3 hours.

Skid Removal and Caster Attachment
Tip the unit forward and remove the skid.

1. Remove the shipping bolts using the ¾” box wrench while cabinet is held in one direction. Repeat the process while the cabinet is held in the opposite direction.
2. None of the threads on the leg or caster stem should be visible once screwed in.
3. Tilt the cabinet in one direction approximately 8” and block it securely with pieces of 2×4 lumber or other suitable material.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Repeat this procedure with unit secured in the opposite direction so as to access the remaining legs/casters/levelers
7. 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.
8. 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. Level should be measured on the headrail. Failure to level your cabinet may result in 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 cabinet for full strength.

Install or attach any accessories that will be used Remove any plastic covering the stainless steel.

SHELF INSTALLATION

1. Determine the proper location for the shelf clips. The reference numbers on the pilaster can serve as a guide to ensure all clips are properly located.
2. Insert the top tab of the shelf clip into the desired hole of the pilaster. The retaining tab MUST be facing up as shown.
3. Rotate the clip downwards and insert the bottom tab into the matching hole in the pilaster. The clip may need to be squeezed slightly during installation.
4. Install all remaining clips.
5. Install shelves onto clips with the product retention bar facing up. Be careful not to dislodge clips during installation.
6. Place shelves so that the retaining tab on the clip captures the shelf as shown.
7. Confirm that the shelf is resting on ALL 4 clips and that the clips are securely attached to the pilasters.
8. Improper shelf clip installation could cause the shelf and / or the product on it to fall, resulting in damage to the unit and possible bodily injury.
9. Do NOT overload the shelves. The unit is designed to use all shelves that are supplied in an equally spaced manner. Contact Beverage-Air customer service if fewer shelves or a different configuration to ensure shelf overloading will not occur.

ELECTRICAL
This is a cord-connected unit, and must be connected to its own dedicated power supply. Check the dataplate on the machine to confirm the voltage and per the dataplate use 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 GFI device trips from moisture.

• Power Cords
  This 115 volt model is equipped with two power cords, both are a type 5-15P plug. If a power cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced with the identical cord.

• Follow All National and Local Codes
  This Unit Must Be Grounded. Do not use extension cords and do not disable or by-pass ground prong on electrical plug.

• Initial Start Up
  Plug the power cords into the proper power supply. The cabinet will soon begin to blow warm air out of the back area, and cool air will flow from the inside blower. The cabinet temperatures have been set at the factory and should not need adjustment, however if changed, the standard refrigerator setting is 38º F., while the standard freezer setting is 0o F.

• Cautions
  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 – DANFOSS CONTROLLER

Operation is simple, just keep it connected to the correct power supply and the refrigerator or freezer will maintain the internal temperature it has been set to. Keep the doors closed as much as possible to avoid unnecessary run time. There are two controllers, both in the lower front grille of the cabinet. The left one is for the refrigerator section and the right one is for the freezer. Each controller displays the current internal temperature for its section. 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. The refrigerator temperature was set at the factory at 38º F, and the freezer temperature was set at 0o F., but you can adjust it to your own selected temperature. Push and release the Increase or Decrease buttons to make a change. 30 seconds after adjustment, the display automatically reverts to showing the current temperature.

Defrost
The Dual Temp will automatically defrost as needed, there is no set time for defrost. Each section defrosts separately. Push and immediately release the “melting snowflake” or defrost button for a manual defrost of that section.
Note: Holding the defrost button in too long will shut the controller off.

• The internal fan will be on when power is connected to the cabinet.
• The compressor and condenser fan motor will only be on when the controller senses an increase in internal cabinet temperature passed the set point.
• If equipped with glass doors, holding the SC button in will turn the cabinet light on or off.

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 R290 service:

• Wire nuts are NOT to be used when changing an electrical part.
• The switches in this product are sealed, only exact replacements 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 be near an opend window or door.
• A sign noting 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.

THREE (3) YEAR PARTS AND LABOR WARRANTY:
Beverage-Air Corporation warrants to the original purchaser of Beverage-Air branded equipment, including all parts thereof, that such equipment is free from defects in material and workmanship, under normal use, proper maintenance, and service as indicated by Beverage-Air installation and operation instructions, for a period of three (3) years from the date of installation, or thirty-nine (39) Months from the date of shipment from the manufacturer, whichever is earlier.

*ADDITIONAL FOUR (4) YEAR COMPRESSOR PART WARRANTY:**

This extended warranty does not cover freight for the replacement compressor or freight for the return of the failed compressor.

• Units shipped after 03/01/2020. Previous warranty applies to units shipped prior.

EXCEPTIONS:

• CT96 Models carry a one (1) year parts and labor warranty, limited to fifteen (15) months from date of shipment from Beverage-Air. These are excluded from additional compressor warranty.

• Blast Chillers carry a three (3) year parts and labor warranty; additional two (2) years compressor part only.
• Units installed in Residential applications will be not covered under this warranty. Units are intended for Commercial use only.

Also, this extended compressor-part only warranty does NOT apply to any electrical controls, condenser, evaporator, fan motors, overload switch, starting relay, capacitors, temperature control, filter/drier, accumulator, refrigeration tubing, wiring harness, labor charges, or supplies which are covered by the warranty above. Normal wear type parts, such as light bulbs/lamps and gaskets are not covered by this warranty. For the purpose of this warranty, the original purchaser shall be deemed to mean the individual or company for who the product was originally installed. Units that utilize variable speed compressor technology can experience nuisance tripping on Class A GFCI outlets which have a trip limit of 4mA to 6 mA. To avoid this issue in a location that requires GFCI circuit protection, Beverage-Air recommends a HUBBELL model number GFRST83W 20A heavy-duty hospital grade self-test GFCI receptacle. Our obligation under this warranty shall be limited to repairing or replacing, including labor, any part of such product, which proves thus defective. Beverage-Air reserves the right to examine any product claimed to be defective. The labor warranty shall be for self-contained units only and for standard straight time, which is defined as normal service rate time, for service performed during normal working hours. Any service requested outside of a servicer’s normal working hours will be covered under this warranty at the normal rate and any additional overtime rate will be at the responsibility of the equipment purchaser. Any part or accessory determined to be defective in the product should be returned to the company within thirty (30) days under the terms of this warranty and must be accompanied by a record of the cabinet model, serial number, and identified with a return material authorization number (RMA#) issued by the manufacturer. Special installation/applications, including remote locations, are limited in coverage by this warranty. Any installation that requires extra work, and/or travel, to gain access to the unit for service is the sole responsibility of the equipment purchaser.

Improper operation resulting from factors, including but not limited to, improper or negligent cleaning and maintenance, low voltage conditions, inadequate wiring, outdoor use (unless otherwise specified) and accidental damage are no manufacturing defects and are strictly the responsibility of the purchaser. With the exception of Blast Chillers, product is designed for maintaining temperature and not bringing food to a desired temperature therefore cannot be held responsible for this function under warranty. Units must be in a conditioned environment or warranty will be void. Condensing coils must be cleaned at regular intervals. Failure to do so can cause compressor malfunction and will void warranty. Although cleaning requirements vary in accordance with operation of various products, Beverage-Air recommends a minimum monthly cleaning.

NO CLAIMS CAN BE MADE AGAINST THIS WARRANTY FOR SPOILAGE OF FOOD, PRODUCTS, LOSS OF SALES OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXPRESSLY GIVEN IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WHICH ARE HERBY DISCLAIMED, ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ON OUR PART, AND WE NEITHER ASSUME, NOR AUTHORIZE ANY OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR US, ANY OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE OF SAID REFRIGERATION UNITS OR ANY PARTS THERE OF.

This warranty shall not be assignable and shall be honored only in so far as the original purchaser. This warranty does not apply outside the limits of the United States of America and Canada, nor does it apply to any part that has been subject to misuse, neglect alteration, accident, or to any damage caused by transportation, flood, fire, acts of terrorism, or acts of God.
