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 screwdriver, 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.

3. Move the unit as close to the 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 the unit on its front or sides. If tipped onto the back, the unit must not be started for 3 hours.

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 levellers installed. If so, then the levellers 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 the unit secured in the opposite direction to access the remaining legs/casters/levellers

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 levellers are employed, then repeat step 3 above and thread the leveller in place. Then repeat step 6.

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.

1. 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.
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.

Levelling:

• Cabinets must be levelled when installed. The level should be measured on the headrail.
• Failure to level your cabinet may result in the door not sealing, or closing correctly, or condensed water not draining properly.
• For cabinets with legs, rotate the foot of the leg with an adjustable wrench to achieve the desired height for levelling.
• For cabinets with casters, levelling 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.

VAPORIZER PAN INSTALLATION

Tools Needed

Parts Included

MOUNTING SCREWS

1. From the back of the cabinet, find the (4x) Philips head screws on the bottom.
2. Using a tool with a Philips head tip, back the screws out about a ¼”.

BEFORE STARTING MAKE SURE THE COOLER IS UNPLUGGED

SECURING THE PAN ASSEMBLY

1. Using the slots on the pan bracket, slide the assembly onto the screws then tighten the screws.
2. Once the pan is secured, make sure both hoses are inside the pan

NOTE: The hoses are often shipped with extra length and will need to be trimmed. Make sure the hose is not touching the heating element.

ENERGIZING THE VAPORIZER

1. Locate the receptacle at the bottom of the back channel
2. Plug the vaporizer cord into the receptacle.
3. If the cord is too long, use a zip tie to keep the cord from hanging on the ground.

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 dedicated power supply. Check the data plate on the machine to confirm the voltage and per the data plate use the correct fuses or HACR circuit breakers.

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.

GFCI
Units that utilize variable speed compressor technology can experience nuisance tripping on Class A GFCI outlets which have a trip limit of 4 to 6 mA. To avoid this issue in a location that requires GFCI circuit protection, Victory recommends using a HUBBELL Model Number GFRST83W 20A Heavy Duty Hospital Grade Self-Test GFCI Receptacle.

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 top area, and cool air will flow from the inside blower. The cabinet temperature has been set at the factory and should not need adjustment, however, if it was changed, the standard setting is 38º 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.
After the cabinet has been installed, levelled, and cleaned as described above, refer to the following checklist:

• Check for proper electrical hook-up. Cabinet MUST NOT SHARE A RECEPTACLE with another piece of equipment
• Check that all clearances are in line with the aforementioned guidelines.
• Check that the cabinet is level.

NOTE: Once the unit has been started and reaches proper storage temperatures, it may be loaded with product.

Door Reversal Instructions

1. Remove the hinge cover.
2. Remove the door from the unit including the hinge mounting brackets
3. Remove the white hole covers from the side of the door opening where you would like the hinges to be located (do not throw away).
4. On the bottom of the door, the same hole plugs are present and need to be removed.
5. Take the hole plugs and insert them into the screw holes where the hinges were originally located on the unit.
6. Install the hinge bracket upright on the unit. The thick portion of the hinge bracket should be on the bottom as you mount them.
7. The door portion of the hinges needs to be removed rotated 180 degrees and remounted.
8. Install the hole plugs that were removed from the bottom of the door into the holes where the handle was first mounted.
9. Slide the door back into position and gently lower into the white pivot cam.
10. Replace the hinge cover.

USING THE UNIT

Operation is simple, just keep it connected to the correct power supply and the Cross Temp™ freezer/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. The temperature was set at the factory at 38º 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. The Cross Temp system is capable of changing from a refrigerator setting of 40 degrees F. to a freezer setting of -15 degrees F. by changing the temperature setting. No other adjustment is needed. The reverse is also available. When switching from refrigerator to freezer or freezer to refrigerator, remove all products before making the change. Add product ONLY after the cabinet has reached the new temperature. The Cross Temp will automatically defrost as needed, there is no set time for defrost. 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 and when the doors are closed. 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 open 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: A refrigeration system must 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 are the main symptoms of an undercharge.

To avoid this issue in a location that requires GFCI circuit protection, Beverage-Air & Victory recommends using 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 labour, any part of such product, which proves thus defective. Beverage-Air reserves the right to examine any product claimed to be defective.

The labour 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 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, and 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.

LIMITED WARRANTY (CONT’D)
Except for Blast Chillers, the 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 the warranty will be void. Condensing coils must be cleaned at regular intervals. Failure to do so can cause compressor malfunction and will void the warranty. Although cleaning requirements vary per operation of various products, Beverage-Air recommends a minimum monthly cleaning.

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.
