Compact Refrigerators

Location

Cabinets represented in this manual are intended for indoor use only. Be sure the location chosen has a floor strong enough to support the total weight of the cabinet and contents. Reinforce the floor as necessary to provide for maximum loading.

The location should be selected so that power cords can be connected without any extensions.

For the most efficient operation, be sure to provide good air circulation inside and outside the cabinet. Avoid hot corners and locations near stoves and ovens.

Inside Cabinet

Do not pack refrigerator so full that air cannot circu- late.

manner.

Stabilizing

All models are supplied standard on casters for your convenience, for ease of cleaning underneath and for mobility.

CAUTION

The cabinet must be installed in a stable condition with the front wheels locked. Locking the front casters after installation is the owner’s and operator’s responsibility.

Plumbing

Self-contained models are standard with a condensate evaporator. If, for some reason, a cabinet does not have a condensate evaporator, or the evaporator fails, the cabinets drain must have an outlet to an appropriate drainage area or container.

Outside Cabinet

4400 Series equipment door and drawer models

These cabinets have Delfield’s “front-breathing” design. They may be installed flush against a wall or built into a counter as required.

The louver at the floor level must be kept completely clear of any obstructions. Proper operation of these models is dependent on air being able to flow freely through the front louver. The louver at the back of the cabinet is not necessary for proper operation, but any air flow through it is beneficial.

CAUTION

Any restriction of the proper air flow outlined above, total or partial, will void the warranty on the cabinet.

Leveling

A level cabinet will perform better because the drain pan will drain properly, the drawers or doors will line up with the frames and the cabinet will not be subject to undue strain.

CAUTION

Never stand on the unit or its drawers! Doing so may result in bodily injury. They are not designed to hold the weight of a person and will collapse if misused in this

CAUTION

Moisture collecting from improper drainage can create a slippery surface on the floor and a hazard to employees. It is the owner’s and operator’s responsibility to provide a container or outlet for drainage.

Electrical Connection

CAUTION

A 7’ (2.1 m) long grounded supply cord and three- pronged plug are provided with standard cabinets. Simply plug into a three-pronged wall outlet for proper grounding of the cabinet to begin operation. Do not use an adapter to connect to a two-pronged outlet. The three-pronged outlet provides a ground connection which must be used to prevent a shock hazard.

CAUTION

The wall outlet must be checked by a qualified electrician to be sure a proper ground is present and that the outlet provides the correct voltage and required amperage to match the rating plate.

Any power cord that is frayed or damaged should be replaced. When disconnecting the cabinet from the power source, do not pull on the cord. Firmly grip the plug and remove from outlet.
