Operation
Start-Up Procedure
Rotate the control knob clockwise to lower the tempera-
ture and counterclockwise raise it.
To check chamber temperature, place a dial thermometer
on a shelf in the center of the chamber. Initially, rotate the
temperature control knob to an arbitrary setting. Allow
approximately 2 hours for the temperature to initially stabi-
lize. Check the temperature and compare with the dial
setting.
Adjust dial further to reach the desired operating tempera-
ture. After chamber initially stabilizes, allow 1/2 to 1 hour
for the chamber temperature to stabilize after subsequent
temperature adjustments.
Because the markings on the dial do not indicate specific
temperatures, use them AS REFERENCE POINTS ONLY
for any future setting of the temperature.
If the room thermostat is turned below 60ºF at night, con-
sider setting the temperature control one step colder. It
should be left at this setting for the nighttime period; return
temperature control to original setting when the room ther-
mostat is returned to its normal setting.
Restart Procedure
If unit is unplugged or turned off, allow 3 minutes before
restarting or plugging it back in.
Manual Defrost Procedure
(Where Applicable)
Do not use any sharp instrument, blade or scraper to
remove ice and frost on refrigerator surfaces because of
the very real danger of puncturing the cooling coil.
Do not use any electrical device to defrost the unit.
When frost accumulates to 1/4" or more, the operating
efficiency of the unit will be affected. Use the following
procedure to defrost manually:
Caution
Do not use in the presence of flam-
mable or combustible materials or
explosive gases. Fire or explosion
could result, causing death or
severe injury.
