APPLIANCE OPERATION (by Model)
FF6BI – FF7BI – SCR600LOS – SPR7OS – SPR601OS – SCR600BI – SWC6GBI – ALB751 – ALB753B Series
DEFROST SYSTEM, OPERATION AND SHELF ADJUSTMENT – All models of the above series are all-refrigerators,
with no freezer compartment and an auto-defrost system. During the compressor operation, ice will build up along the cold
rear wall (the evaporator plate is behind the wall). During the compressor’s off-cycle, ice will melt, drip down, collect in the
trough at the bottom and drain through the small hole into a tray above the compressor, where the compressor’s heat will
evaporate the water. If you notice excessive ice build-up on the rear wall, try setting the thermostat to a slightly warmer
setting; be sure that the gasket is sealing well and that there is no obstruction of the drain hole in the bottom rear of these
units. Models with black cabinets include glass shelves. These shelves stop short an inch before the back wall, which is
essential for air flow and the automatic defrost system. Do not block with food or containers. All models have removable,
easily adjustable shelves. To remove a shelf, simply lift the rear of the shelf out of its locking position and slide the shelf
forward. Replace shelves the same way, being sure they lock into place. The thermostat of these units is located at the
top on the right hand side as you face the refrigerator. Turn clockwise for colder operation, and counter-clockwise to save
energy and increase the temperature. The light on the FF6BI models is controlled by an automatic plunger switch
whenever the door is opened. Models with glass doors and flat door liners have a rocker switch to manually turn the light
on or off. The light should be kept off when the door is closed to save energy and help keep interior temperatures lower.
BI540 – BI541 – CT67BI – ALB651 – ALB653B – CT66BI – CT66B Series
DEFROST SYSTEM, OPERATION AND SHELF ADJUSTMENT – Models above are refrigerator-freezer combinations
with a manual defrost freezer section and an automatic defrost fresh-food section. When ice builds to ½ inch around the
freezer, empty the contents of the whole unit and defrost carefully (DO NOT USE SHARP OBJECTS) following directions
earlier in this manual. The fresh food section will defrost itself, exactly like the models in the previous section. The freezer
in this unit is rated four stars, which makes it suitable for ice-cream and short term storage of meats and other perishable
items. For best storage, be sure not to over-pack and assure the freezer door closes fully. Shelves adjust the same as in
the section above. Models with black cabinets as well as CT67BI models include glass shelves. These shelves stop short
an inch before the back wall, which is essential for air flow and the automatic defrost system. Do not block with food or
containers. The thermostat of these units is located at the top on the right hand side as you face the refrigerator. Turn
clockwise for colder operation, and counter-clockwise to save energy and increase the temperature. Lights on these units
are all controlled by an automatic plunger-type switch.
SCFF55 Series
These units are frost-free freezers with a fan-cooled interior. The cooling is provided by the evaporator module mounted to
the top of the unit. Air is circulated through the fan grill at the front of the unit and an outlet at the rear of the unit. Try to
keep the air path as free as possible for optimal performance. Normally, no defrosting of these units is needed. There are
no user serviceable parts within the evaporator module, so do not tamper with or attempt to move this part. It is part of the
sealed refrigeration system. Models with black cabinets include glass shelves. These shelves stop short an inch before
the back wall, which is essential for air flow. Do not block with food or containers. All models have removable, easily
adjustable shelves. To remove a shelf, simply lift the rear of the shelf out of its locking position and slide the shelf forward.
Replace shelves the same way, being sure they lock into place. The light in the SCFF55 models is controlled by a manual
rocker switch. Keep the light off when the door is closed for better performance and to save energy. Models with ice-
makers installed do not include an interior light.
SWC6GBI Series Wine Cellars
These wine cellars are fully automatic defrost (see description of the defrost system under Model FF6BI series above).
There is a light in the upper right corner, controlled by a rocker switch. Base models of the SWC6G series have chrome-
plated shelves, while some models are equipped with optional flat wire shelves or wooden shelves. For maximum
capacity, it is possible to lay wine bottles at the rear of the shelves cross-wise, behind the bottles facing forward. Keep
one inch of clearance behind the shelves and the rear wall for air circulation and the efficient operation of the defrost
system. Glass doors should be cleaned with non-abrasive glass cleaners, and it is recommended that the interiors be
cleaned with only a baking soda / water mix so odors are not left behind that can be absorbed by corks. These models are
one temperature zone only, although the lower shelves are normally a few degrees colder than the upper shelves.
