Crispers
Food Storage
Drawers
CAUTION
!
When opening or closing the crisper, pull or push slowly
and carefully. If the crisper is pulled out too far or pushed
in too hard, it could come out all the way and possibly
cause product damage or personal injury.
The drawers should only be removed for servicing by a trained and
certified repair personal.
Your models may have a lower crisper drawer for storage.
To open, grasp the crisper handle and slowly pull out to access the
drawer contents. The crisper
may be completely removed for
cleaning.
If the drawer is pulled out too
far, it will come out of the
cabinet, and may be damaged by
falling.
Top Storage Bi n
Grasp the bin handle and slide backward to access the contents
below. The bin may be completely removed for cleaning once it is
slid forward, making sure it clears the guides on each side of the
drawer. Then lift straight up. If heavy items are stored in bin, push
front of bin down slightly while sliding. Slide bin forward, especially
with heavy items, to ensure that drawer closes completely.

Ice Maker Adjustment
Ice Cube Thickness Adjustment
Ice Maker
Interval - As Required
Ice Maker Operation
On ice maker equipped models, adjust the cube size by changing
water amount injected into the ice maker assembly as follows:
When the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will shut off.
However, the refrigeration system will continue to cool and
maintain the ice supply. Frost-free ice maker units have lower ice
production than manual defrost units.
NOTICE
Do not place cans or bottles in the ice compartment
because they will freeze.
1
OFF
ON
2
To turn off ice production: Raise the bin arm into an upright
and locked position. The unit will preserve temperature for ice
storage.
NOTICE
If not intending to use the ice maker turn the water supply
valve off, it is important to raise the bin arm of the ice
maker (Figure 1). Failure to raise the bin arm may result
in damage to the water valve.
1. Remove the ice maker assembly cover (1).
2. Find the adjusting screw on the ice maker assembly control box
(2). The adjusting screw is just below the minus (-) and plus (+)
signs on the control box.
Certain sounds are normal during the unit’s operation. You may
hear the compressor or fan motor, the water valve, or ice
dropping into the ice bucket.
CAUTION
!
Too large of an adjustment to the screw can cause the
water to overflow the ice maker and can cause property
damage.
CAUTION
!
NEVER use an ice pick, knife or other sharp instrument to
separate cubes. Shake the ice bucket instead.
3. Turn the adjusting screw toward the minus (-) sign (clockwise)
for smaller cubes or toward the plus (+) sign (counterclockwise)
for larger cubes.
During periods of limited use or high ambient temperatures, it is
common for cubes to fuse together. Gently shake the bucket to
break apart cubes. If not using the ice maker regularly, empty the
ice bucket periodically to ensure fresh cubes.
4. Install the ice maker assembly cover.
It is normal for cubes to appear cloudy. The cause is air trapped in
the water because of fast freezing. It is not caused by the health,
taste or chemical make up of the water. It is the same air that is in
every glass of water you drink.
Remove the ice bucket for emptying and cleaning. To remove the
ice bucket, raise the bin arm and remove the bucket from the ice
compartment. Use the ice bucket for ice storage only.

Cleaning
Defrosting
Automatic Defrost Models
Exterior Cleaning
Frost on the rear wall is normal and will melt during each off cycle.
If there is excessive build-up of 1/4" or more, manually defrost the
unit.
Vinyl Clad (Black or White) Models:
•
Clean surfaces with a mild detergent and warm water solution.
Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft
sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean
towel to prevent water spotting.
•
•
Ensure the door is closing and sealing properly.
High ambient temperature and excessive humidity can also
produce frost.
•
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.
Stainless Models:
CAUTION
!
•
Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor when
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or cleaners
with bleach.
DO NOT use an ice pick or other sharp instrument to
help speed up defrosting. These instruments can puncture
the inner lining or damage the cooling unit. DO NOT use
any type of heater to defrost. Using a heater to speed up
defrosting can cause personal injury and damage to the
inner lining.
•
Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good
quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner polish monthly. For best
results use Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can
be purchased from U-Line Corporation (Part Number 173348).
Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will
remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some
installations may require cleaning weekly.
•

5. Fill the ice bucket half full with warm, not hot water. This will
help the unit defrost faster.
•
Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the surface of the
stainless steel and complete removal of the rust may not be
possible.
6. Place the ice bucket back into the unit on top of the towel or
other absorbent material.
Interior Cleaning
