Part number 20083, Rev 0 RECEIVING Your unit was built, packaged, and inspected with extreme care. We shipped it to you using carriers we trust with a proven track record of careful handling, good customer service, and on time delivery. Unfortunately, regardless of all of these efforts sometimes accidents happen and occasionally those accidents result in shipping damage. When the carrier picked up the merchandise from us, they assumed responsibility for its condition en route to you.

Part number 20083, Rev 0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION REQUIRED TOOLS – 9/16” socket or wrench, ¾” open end wrench, Phillips head screwdriver, and level. UNCRATING – Move your refrigerator as close to the final location as possible before removing the wooden skid. The location should be as close as possible to the power outlet, so the extend cord is not needed. PLEASE NOTE! Your refrigerator or freezer is designed as INDOOR USE and should be operated at air conditioned room temperature between 65°F to 85°F.
PAGE 5
Part number 20083, Rev 0 For Sliding Doors Model – Remove the styrofoam blocks on the top of the door tracks (see Image 3) and the plastic door stoppers (see Image 4, 5, and 6) CASTERS INSTALLATION – It is important to ensure the casters are installed properly and securely in order to obtain the maximum strength and stability of the unit. For leveling, insert the shim between the caster and frame rail.
PAGE 6
Part number 20083, Rev 0 LEVELING – Proper leveling of your refrigerator is critical to operating success. Condensate removal and door operation will be adversely affected by not leveling. The unit should be leveled front to back and side to side with a level. Ensure that the drain hose or hoses are positioned in the pan. POWER SOURCE – The supply circuit to this cabinet must conform to all National and Local Electrical Codes.

Part number 20083, Rev 0 SHELF INSTALLATON Hook shelf clip onto pilaster strips (See below). Position all four shelf clips equal in distance from the floor for flat shelves. Wire shelves are oriented so that cross support bars are facing down. Place shelves on shelf clips making sure all corners are seated properly. TEMPERATURE CONTROL NOTE: The controls are preset at the factory to provide the desired air and product temperatures inside of the units and require no further adjustment.
PAGE 8
Part number 20083, Rev 0 REFRIGERATOR OPERATION After the unit is properly installed and power is applied, it will take some time before the system is cooled down to temperature and cycling normally. You should wait 8 hours on the first startup before beginning to add product to the unit. This ensures that the unit is installed and operating properly before being put into service. On subsequent startups (after cleanings, for example), this wait time can be reduced to about 3 hours.
PAGE 9
Part number 20083, Rev 0 CONTROL CENTER -- Temperature Monitor System The temperature control center (monitor) system on the front of the unit provides the following functions- to provide an indication of the sample temperature inside of the compartment - to provide a local alarm at the unit in the event an out of range temperature exists - to provide the ability to connect remote systems to provide remote alarms or notifications in the event of an out of range temperature.
PAGE 10
Part number 20083, Rev 0 The STATUS tricolor LED shows the status of the unit. Green = normal run mode Amber = program mode Red = temperature is out of range (The light blinks off briefly each second to show the unit is active) The ALARM/TEST push-button interrupts line power, to allow testing of the battery and the alarm relay. The bright red ALARM LED shows alarm conditions. • In alarm mode, it flashes every half-second. • In alarm mute mode, it gives a short blink every second.
PAGE 11
Part number 20083, Rev 0 BASIC OPERATION The Control Center Monitor has two modes: NORMAL RUN MODE and PROGRAMMING MODE. In Normal Run mode, the display shows the temperature that the probe is reading to the lowest whole number, i.e., if it shows a value of 10.0ᵒ, the actual temperature can range from 10.0 to 10.9. Press the UP button to cause the display to show the high temperature set point. Press the DOWN button to cause the display to show the low temperature set point.
PAGE 12
Part number 20083, Rev 0 Testing the battery: The battery recharges when the unit is plugged into line power. To test the battery, push the ALARM/TEST button on the front panel.

Part number 20083, Rev 0 rd (Relay Delay) If there is an alarm condition, the relay contacts will switch. The relay delay parameter allows the user to set the amount of time delay from the start of the alarm condition to the time the relay contact switches. This keeps the relay from switching during short “nuisance alarms”. The operator may set the relay delay time for 0 to 30 minutes.
