Operation Guidelines
Starting your Everest Product
After plugging in the unit, the current temperature and compressor symbol
will appear on the
digital temperature control’s LED display
will flash at short intervals for 1 minute after which the
compressor(s) and condenser fan motor(s) will initiate. At the beginning of every compressor cycle,
the condenser fan motor is automated to rotate in reverse for 30 seconds in order to blow dust off
the condenser coil.
The evaporator fan motor(s) will initiate once the evaporator coil reaches a specific temperature
relative to the digital temperature control setting and for as long as the door is closed. A fan symbol
will appear on the LED display to indicate that the evaporator fan is running.
Allow the unit to operate for 24 to 72 hours before storing contents in the cabinet. This lets the cabinet
temperature fully stabilize. Use this time to verify proper installation and operation.
The interior light and evaporator fan motor is controlled by a door switch for solid door models and a
rocker switch for glass door models.
The default temperature setting is 35.0°F (2.0°C) for refrigerators and -4.0°F (-20.0°C) for freezers.
The factory recommended temperature range is between 33.0°F (1.0°C) to 40.0°F (4.0°C) for
refrigerators and -5.0°F (-21.0°C) to 0°F (-18.0°C) for freezers. For Dry ager, the factory recommended
temperature range is between 34.0°F to 38°F. Setting the temperature outside of the recommended
range will cause performance issues and in some cases may result in component failure that is outside
of warranty coverage.
The compressor, condenser and evaporator fan motors run while the unit is on refrigeration cycle.
The compressor, condenser and evaporator fan motors stop running while the unit is on defrost cycle.
The unit is preset to defrost every 5-6 hours with a duration of 45 minutes or less depending on the
evaporator coil temperature. Changing the preset outside of the default range will result in cooling
issues and advanced component failure.
The digital temperature control is intended to read and display the cabinet’s air temperature, not actual
food product temperature. The displayed temperature may fluctuate due to frequent or prolonged door
operation. The most conclusive method to determine a unit’s cooling performance is to measure the
food product’s temperature using a digital food thermometer.
