Select Location

The proper location will ensure peak performance of your 

appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will 

be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To 

ensure your product performs to specifications, the recom-

mended installation location temperature range is from 5

0

 

to 1

00

°F (1

0

 to 

38

°C).

Cabinet Clearance

Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appli-

ance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.  

Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around 

the appliance as long as the front grille remains unobstruct-

ed.  

Front Grille

Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the 

front grille allow air to flow through the condenser heat ex-

changer. Restrictions to this air flow will result in increased 

energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason 

it is important this area to not be obstructed and the grille 

openings kept clean (See Figure 1). The use of a custom 

made grille is not recommended as it may restrict air flow.

Leveling Legs

Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appli-

ance should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the 

floor and level from side to side and front to back. The over-

all height of your DCS appliance may be adjusted between 

the minimum, 33

" (85.7 cm), by turning the leveling leg in 

(CW 

) and the maximum, 34

3

4

" (88.3 cm) by turning the 

leveling leg out (CCW 

↶)

.

To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid 

surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid 

scratching the floor. With the assistance of another person, 

lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs. 

Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning 

the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appli-

ance forward using caution. On a level surface check the 

appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.

The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille ad-

justed to the desired height. When adjustment is complete 

tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 2).
