INSTALLATION
UNCRATING –
Move your refrigerator as close to the final location
as possible before unpacking. Remove the wooden planks or skid.
The location should be as close as possible to the power outlet so
the extension cord is not needed. This unit requires a
minimum of
4 inches of air flow space in back and 3 inches on the sides and
top.
Do not store material on the top of this unit.
LEVELING
−
You can level your unit with the screw-type adjustable
leveling legs on the front corners of the unit. Turn
counterclockwise to raise the corner; turn clockwise to lower it. Leveling legs are required in
front only. Unit may have a slight tilt from front to back after legs are installed. This is
acceptable and is recommended on this unit.
POWER SOURCE
– The supply circuit to this cabinet
must conform to all National and Local Electrical
Codes. Consult the cabinet Serial-Data plate for
voltage, cycle, phase, and amp requirements before
making connection. VOLTAGE SHOULD NOT VARY
MORE THAN 5% FROM SERIAL PLATE RATINGS. A
separate circuit is recommended to prevent possible
loss of product due to over-loading or failure of
other equipment on the same circuit. PROTECT THE
CIRCUIT WITH A 20 AMP DELAY-TYPE FUSE OR CIRCUIT
BREAKER. Do not use an extension cord. Be sure your unit
is properly grounded. Use the 3-prong plug provided into
a 3-prong grounded outlet. (Only this method complies
with national electrical codes, local codes and ordinances.)
Unless the above grounding method is followed, you are
not protected against severe or lethal shock in the event
of a short circuit of an electrical component or wiring of
the unit.
STARTING
– There are no compressor shipping bolts to
loosen or valves to open. All that is necessary after the
unit has been properly leveled is to plug the service cord
into an electrical outlet When starting this new appliance, allow the cabinet to operate a
minimum of eight hours or until it has started cycling normally before placing product in the
cabinet. The motor compressor may start and stop several times when the unit is first started
or after defrosting, especially if the weather is very hot. This is only normal functioning of the
motor overload protector. The motor compressor will cycle normally as soon as the excess
heat has been removed.
