INSTALLATION
UNCRATING – Move your refrigerator as close to the final location
as possible before unpacking. Remove the wooden planks or
skid. The location should be as close as possible to the power
outlet so the extension cord is not needed. This unit requires a
minimum of 4 inches of air flow space in back and 3 inches on
the sides and top. Do not store material on the top of this
unit.
LEVELING You can level your unit with the screw‐type adjustable leveling legs on the front
corners of the unit. Turn counterclockwise to raise the corner; turn clockwise to lower it.
Leveling legs are required in front only. Unit may have a slight tilt from front to back after
legs are installed. This is acceptable and is recommended on this unit.
POWER SOURCE – The supply circuit to this cabinet
must conform to all National and Local Electrical
Codes. Consult the cabinet Serial‐Data plate for
voltage, cycle, phase, and amp requirements before
making connection. VOLTAGE SHOULD NOT VARY
MORE THAN 5% FROM SERIAL PLATE RATINGS. A
separate circuit is recommended to prevent possible
loss of product due to over‐loading or failure of other equipment on the same circuit.
PROTECT THE CIRCUIT WITH A 20 AMP DELAY‐TYPE
FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER. Do not use an extension
cord. Be sure your unit is properly grounded. Use the
3‐prong plug provided into a 3‐prong grounded outlet.
(Only this method complies with national electrical
codes, local codes and ordinances.) Unless the above
grounding method is followed, you are not protected
against severe or lethal shock in the event of a short
circuit of an electrical component or wiring of the unit.
STARTING – There are no compressor shipping bolts to
loosen or valves to open. All that is necessary after the
unit has been properly leveled is to plug the service
cord into an electrical outlet When starting this new
appliance, allow the cabinet to operate a minimum of eight hours or until it has started
cycling normally before placing product in the cabinet. The motor compressor may start
and stop several times when the unit is first started or after defrosting, especially if the
weather is very hot. This is only normal functioning of the motor overload protector. The
motor compressor will cycle normally as soon as the excess heat has been removed.
