Preliminary
Power Requirements
The merchandiser is supplied with a service cord for the country of use and is terminated in a
grounding type plug. The wall receptacle used for this merchandiser must be properly polarized,
grounded, and of the correct voltage. Operating the merchandiser from a source of low voltage will
VOID YOUR WARRANTY . Each merchandiser should have its own 15 Amp electrical circuit and that
circuit should be protected with a circuit breaker or fuse conforming to local regulations.
1. Voltage Check - Place the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and NEUTRAL termi-
nals of the wall receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt, 60 Hz
locations, or 220- 240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz locations.
2. Polarity Check - Place the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and GROUND termi-
nals of the wall receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt, 60 Hz
locations, or 220- 240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz locations.
3. Noise Potential Check - Place the test leads of a voltmeter across the NEUTRAL and
GROUND terminals of the wall receptacle. The meter should indicate 0 volts ac. A measure-
ment greater than 1.5 - 2.0 volts ac could result in problems for the merchandiser's electronic
circuitry caused by electrical noise.
NOTE
Any deviation from these requirements could result
in unreliable performance from your merchandiser.
Unpacking the Merchandiser
Remove all packing materials from the interior of the merchandiser. Keep all documents; warranty
cards, etc. Set aside the base plate kit (if present).
