- All models are 115 volts, 60 Hz AC.
- ALWAYS REFERENCE YOUR EQUIPMENT DATA PLATE AMPS, REFRIGERANT AND REFRIGERANT CHARGE FOR THE MOST UP TO DATE AND ACCURATE VALUES.
- There are no access valves on the refrigeration system.
CLEARANCE AND PLACEMENT
Placement
Consider the following when selecting a location for your Refrigerator:
Clearance:
- Must not be covered – Top
- 0″ – Left
- 0″ – Right
- 0″ – Rear
- 5 3/8″ – 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 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.
-
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 cardboard carton and discard.
-
Then, move unit as close to 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 unit on its front or sides. If tipped onto the back, unit must not be started for 3 hours.
Leveling:
Cabinet must be installed on a level surface. Failure to install on a level
surface may result in the door not sealing or not remaining in position
correctly, or during defrost maintenance, condensed water not draining
properly. Install or attach any accessories that will be used Remove any
plastic covering the stainless steel.
CAUTION
Do NOT loosen casters to level the cabinet. Casters MUST be tightly secured to
cabinet for full strength.
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 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 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 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 38º 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 WITH A DANFOSS CONTROLLER
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 door 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 product. Pull down time
will vary depending upon the type of unit and ambient conditions. Freshly
cooked product, or otherwise warm product placed into the appliance will also
increase the pull down time significantly since this model is designed for
storage and not for rapid pull down.
The temperature was set at the factory at 38″ 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 refrigerator will automatically defrost as needed, there is no set time
for defrost.
Note: Holding the defrost button in too long will shut the controller
off.
The pans must be kept in place for proper temperature control.
The internal fan will be on all the time.
The compressor and condenser fan motor will only be on when the controller
senses an increase in internal cabinet temperature passed the set point.
In most cases the only thing displayed will be the cabinet temperature. When
something other than normal operation has occurred, a message will be shown.

Daily Exterior Cleaning
It is much easier to clean on a regular basis than to have to remove stains once they have built up.
- Wash with a clean sponge and a mild detergent that does not contain chlorine.
- Rinse with clean water.
- Dry with a soft cloth.
- Polish with a soft cloth, wiping with the grain.
- Wipe weekly with stainless steel cleaner.
Weekly Interior Cleaning
- Remove all food, food related items. Store the food at a safe temperature.
- Disconnect power to the unit (unplug it or switch the breaker off).
- Remove all loose food particles from the inside walls, floor, door liner and ceiling.
- Scrub all interior surfaces and door gaskets with a warm (100°F to 110 °F) detergent solution and a soft scrub brush.
- Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry.
- Restore power.
- Return food to the unit when it has reached a safe temperature.
CONDENSER CLEANING
Keeping the condenser coil clean is critical to efficient operation.
-
Unplug unit from power supply.
CAUTION Rotating fan blade can cause personal injury.
Unplug unit from power supply before beginning to clean condenser -
Remove the Phillips head screws on the left and right of the rear panel
-
Pull the panel away from the unit.
-
Brush off the surface of the condenser fins. Do NOT bend the fins.
-
Vacuum the surface of the condenser fins.
-
To reinstall the rear panel line up the screw holes and reinstall the Philips head screws.
Note: If the coil is greasy, the coil will need to be cleaned with coil
cleaner and that should be left to an experienced technician.
Note: Air filters are not recommended as they restrict the flow of
cooling air.

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 also be in a well ventilated area, with a nearby 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: 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: 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.
