e. Storage Inspecon. Storage inspecon procedures are based on whether the refrigerators are car-
toned or uncartoned. The following paragraphs describe the procedures for both condions.
1. Cartoned refrigerators. Cartoned refrigerators are to be visually inspected on a periodic basis
to determine if they have been damaged and/or if they are wet. If either condion exists, the
refrigerator is to be removed from the damaged or wet carton and inspected. If the refrigerator
is acceptable, dry it o and re-carton with a carton service assembly kit as specied in the kit’s
instrucons and place the re-cartoned refrigerator back in storage.
2. Uncartoned refrigerators. The following procedures are for storage inspecon of uncartoned
refrigerators.
a. Refrigerators are to be visually inspected at least once a month. In areas where the
humidity is high enough to cause water condensaon or dew to occur on the refrigera-
tor’s outer surfaces, more frequent inspecons and wiping clean and drying o of outer
surfaces should be implemented. This is parcularly crical in salt air environments or
locaons near oceans. Depending on the severity of condions, daily inspecons, with
cleaning and drying o, may be required. Failure to do so may result in damage to the
refrigerator cabinet and door.
b. If cabinet and door painted surfaces have nicks or small areas where the paint has
been scraped o, apply touch-up paint to maintain a protecve coang on the steel
surfaces.
c. Open the cabinet and freezer doors and inspect all interior surfaces and parts for
moisture, mold, or mildew. Also, check the door gasket for moisture, mold, or mildew. If
mold or mildew exist, use a mild soap and water soluon to remove the mold or mil-
dew. Rinse with clean, salt free water and dry thoroughly.
d. Close the cabinet door and snap the plasc door latch into the buon on the top le
side of the door.
e. If the inspecon of the refrigerators required that the units be removed from storage,
return the refrigerators back to their storage areas. See par. 2.3.b. for details.
2.4 Installaon. Geng the refrigerator ready to operate is simple. Properly dispose of the packing mate-
rial, posion the refrigerator where you want it. Then:
a. Be sure that the refrigerator is placed such that the power cord can reach a properly grounded three-
prong electrical outlet. Connect the plug to the electrical outlet at the end of this installaon proce-
dure.
For a wall outlet that provides 230 VAC, the refrigerator’s 115 VAC electrical plug must be inserted into
the transformer’s electrical outlet. The 230 VAC electrical plug aached to the power cord coming from
the transformer must then be inserted into the 230 VAC wall outlet for proper and safe operaon. See
g. 1-2.
b. The four glides (feet) of the refrigerator are non-adjustable. If the refrigerator is on a level surface,
the refrigerator will be level. Do not operate the refrigerator at an angle greater than 10 degrees from
level. Failure of the refrigeraon system may result.
