Make sure all accessories are installed (i.e. shelves,
shelf clips, casters) before plugging the unit in.
Please read through the manual in its entirety.
CABINET LOCATION GUIDELINES
Install the unit on strong and leveled surfaces
•
Unit may make unpleasant noises if surface is
uneven
•
Unit may malfunction if surface is uneven
Install the unit in an indoor, well‐ventilated area
•
•
•
Unit performs more efficiently in a well‐
ventilated area
For best performance, please maintain
clearance of 4” on the back of the unit.
Outdoor use may cause decreased efficiency
and damage to the unit.
Avoid installation in a high humidity and/or dusty
area
•
•
Humidity could cause unit to rust and decrease
efficiency of the unit
Dust collected on the condenser coil will cause
unit to malfunction. Clean the condenser at
least once a month with a brush or a clean
cloth.
PROHIBTION
Do not attempt to remove or repair any component
unless instructed by factory.
Make sure that the unit is not resting on or against
the electrical cord and the plug.
Select a location away from heat and moisture‐
generating equipment
Do not store any flammable and explosive gas or
liquids inside the unit.
•
High ambient temperatures will cause the
compressor to overwork, leading to higher
energy bills and gradual breakdown of the unit
Do not attempt to alter or tamper with the
electrical cord.
INSTALLATION
ELECTRICAL
IMPORTANT!!! PLEASE READ BEFORE
INSTALLATION
Please ensure that the required voltage of the
compressor is being supplied at all times. Low or high
voltage can detrimentally affect the refrigeration unit.
All units should be plugged into a grounded and
properly sized electrical outlet with appropriate
overcurrent protection. Please refer to the electrical
requirement on the nameplate. Please make sure that
your unit has its own dedicated outlet. Do not use an
extension cord.
The refrigeration system operates most efficiently
when installed in an area with cool, dry air
circulation.
There must be at least 6 inches of clearance on both
sides and the back of the cabinet.
Select a location away from the heat and moisture
generating equipment such as stoves, ovens, etc.
Avoid direct sun rays.
The temperature controls are preset at the factory to
maintain an average temperature of 38 F in
refrigerators. To maintain a different temperature,
simply adjust the control knob located inside the unit.

Temperature ranges from 7 (coldest) to 1 (warmest).
Setting the temperature control to the coldest setting
may cause the evaporator coil to freeze and ice up. This
will eventually make the cabinet become warm, which
is not recommended.
quart of warm water). Rinse thoroughly with clean,
warm water and wipe dry.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the cabinet exterior occasionally with a cloth
dampened in mild detergent and water. Rinse and wipe
dry with a soft cloth. Do not use razor blades or other
sharp instruments that can scratch the appliance
surface when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left
from the tape can be removed with a mixture of warm
water and mild detergent or touch the residue with the
sticky side of tape already removed. DO NOT REMOVE
THE SERIAL PLATE.
Appliance Start‐up
Once the appliance has been located in its permanent
location and the proper power and grounding has been
provided, the following items must be checked or
completed:
Cool Down Period
Condensate Pan
For safe food storage, allow 24 hours for the appliance
to cool down completely before loading with food. The
appliance will run continuously for the first several
hours. Do not place any food in the appliance until after
the first 24 hours of operation.
Some models have a condensate pan in a fixed position
located behind the toe grill. This must not be removed
from under the cabinet. If the pan is removed,
condensate will drop onto the floor.
POWER FAILURE
Thermostat Setting
DO NOT open the appliance lid unnecessarily if the
appliance is off for several hours. If a power failure
occurs, pack seven or eight pounds of dry ice into the
appliance every 24 hours. Look in the Yellow Pages
under “Dry Ice”, “Dairies”, or “Ice Cream
Manufacturers” for local dry ice suppliers. Always wear
gloves and use caution when handling dry ice.
The appliance is shipped from the factory with the
thermostat set at about the midpoint of the operating
range. Adjustments colder or warmer can be made after
the appliance has been running for at least 8 hours.
Allow at least 8 hours for temperature stabilization
before readjusting the thermostat.
Defrost Setting
The appliance is designed to defrost automatically every
12 hours. To set the time of defrost, wait until the
desired time to defrost. With the notch on the timer
knob aligned with the line on the bracket (Fig. A), turn
the defrost timer knob clockwise slowly. The timer will
click several times, then once loudly, at which point the
defrost cycle begins. The timer knob will advance
through the defrost cycle, and then click loudly at the
end of the cycle (Fig. B). The appliance will defrost
automatically every 12 hours
Operation
Run the unit for at least 24 hours before loading.
When loading the unit:
•
Be careful not to block the air duct located at
the back and the fan on the ceiling of the unit
with contents.
•
•
Blocking the air flow may cause decrease in
performance.
For the best performance, maintain at least 4
inches of clearance in between the contents
and the air duct.

Cleaning the Interior
Be sure to turn the temperature control to “OFF” and
unplug the electrical cord. Wash the inside surface of
the storage area with warm water and baking soda
solution (about one tablespoon of baking soda per

similar item.
Energy Conservation Measures
Temperature Controller Manual
This appliance is designed for efficiency with heavy
foam insulation. However, there are things that the user
can do to maintain the appliance in operating condition.
Do not operate the appliance any colder than
necessary to maintain safe, product storage
temperatures.
Make sure the appliance is located to prevent direct
exposure to sunlight, air ducts, etc.
Keep the door closed except for normal use. Inspect
the door often to see that it self‐closes and the
gaskets are in good condition.
Do not overstock the product in the cabinet
because it will block the normal air flow.
Have at least annual inspections by a qualified
service company to see that the refrigerant charge
is correct.
Feature of Function
This temperature controller adopt world well‐known
brand SCM. It is reliable and durable. The relay is
exclusively used for compressor loads which make it
safer. The way of controlling temperature is return type
and easy to operate.
This appliance operates more efficiently in a cooler
ambient than in a hot ambient. Try to maintain an
ambient below 80ºF (27ºC) and 65% RH (Relative
Humidity) for maximum efficiency.
Mine‐sized and integrated intelligent control, it is
applicable to the compressor of one H.P. Suit for a
ventilated freezer.

fan restarts. After defrost and the first working
mode, the fan will follow the mode of F5.
Controlling by temperature: When F7 is set “01”

reaches F9, the fan restarts. After defrost and the
first working mode, the fan will follow the mode of
F5.

Sensor failure work mode: If the cold‐room sensor is
short circuited or overheated, “HH” will be
displayed. If the cold‐room sensor is in an open
circuit or the temperature is too low then “LL” is
displayed. At that time the compressor will
automatically go to a cycle of 45 min on and 15 min
off. When the evaporator sensor fails or surpasses
the displayed range, the defrost termination will be
just controlled by the defrost duration.
