REFRIGERATOR / FREEZER OPERATION
After the unit is properly installed and power has been applied, it will take some time before
the system is cooled down to temperature and cycling normally. You should wait 3 hours on the
first startup before beginning to add product to the unit. This ensures that the unit is installed
and operating properly before being put into service. On subsequent startups (after cleanings,
for example), this wait time can be reduced to about 2 hours. After this wait time, the unit
should be cycling in the desired temperature range. The units are calibrated before leaving the
factory, so no adjustment should be necessary.
Loading the units will again cause temperature to rise as the warmer product is introduced into
the compartment. If a large amount of product is to be introduced, it is a good idea to do it in
stages, allowing several hours between stages to allow temperature to stabilize again before
