REFRIGERATED BASES & PIZZA PREP TABLES
GFI/GFCI RECEPTACLES
Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI or GFI) devices are not
recommended for most commercial refrigerators and freezers,
since nuisance trips may occur, typically due to moisture. This
can cause temporary loss of power, which may result in high
storage temperatures and potentially unsafe food product.
Building codes in some areas may require certain 115 volt
receptacles to be protected by a GFI. If you need to connect your
equipment to a protected circuit, a properly sized, commercial
grade GFI circuit breaker should be used on a separate, isolated
power supply. Or a qualified electrician may be able to hard wire
your equipment, eliminating the need for a GFI device. Contact
Continental’s Service Department before making any modifica-
tions to your cabinet, to avoid loss of warranty.
NOTE: GFI RECEPTACLES ARE NOT RECOMMENDED,
PRODUCT LOSS OR SERVICE PROBLEMS RESULTING
FROM NUISANCE TRIPS, CONNECTION TO A DEFECTIVE
OR IMPROPER POWER SUPPLY, AND UNAUTHORIZED
MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR EQUIPMENT CAN CAUSE A
HAZARD AND WILL VOID FACTORY WARRANTY.
115 VOLT, 60 HZ, 1 PHASE CONNECTION
All 115 volt models are provided with a factory
installed, UL approved 15-amp power cord and
NEMA 5-15P plug, or a 20-amp power cord and
NEMA 5-20P plug. To insure proper operation,
this equipment must be plugged into a NEMA
compatible, grounded receptacle that can sup-
ply the full voltage and amperage stated on the
serial plate (see Figure 1).
Some 115 volt models (including CPA118) require 20 amp sup-
ply power and must be plugged into a NEMA 5-20R receptacle.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A SEPARATE, ISOLATED, PROPERLY
SIZED POWER SUPPLY MUST BE PROVIDED. GFCI
DEVICES AND/OR EXTENSION CORDS SHOULD NOT
BE USED. PRODUCT LOSS, AS WELL AS PROBLEMS
RESULTING FROM NUISANCE TRIPS OR HIGH/LOW
VOLTAGE, ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
CAUTION: IF UNIT IS UNPLUGGED OR DISCONNECTED
FOR ANY REASON, ALLOW 5-6 MINUTES BEFORE
TURNING THE UNIT BACK ON TO ALLOW THE SYSTEM
TO EQUALIZE. DISREGARDING THIS PROCEDURE
COULD CAUSE AN OVERLOAD AND PREVENT THE UNIT
FROM OPERATING.

INITIAL CLEANING PROCEDURE
Prior to start-up and before placing any product inside of your
new model, the interior of the cabinet should be thoroughly
cleaned. Remove the protective film (which is clear on some
models) from all interior sides, bottom and other internal metal
panels, by working the corner loose and slowly pulling the film
back. Washing with a mild soap and warm water solution is
recommended for cleaning the aluminum and stainless steel
surfaces of your cabinet. This should be followed by cleaning
with a baking soda solution (three (3) tablespoons of baking
soda to each quart of warm water). Wipe down thoroughly with
a damp cloth or sponge that has been soaked in clean water and
wrong out thoroughly, and dry with a clean, soft cloth.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never use harsh detergents, clean-
ers, scouring powders or chemicals when cleaning your
model. Failure to dry the interior surfaces after cleaning
may result in a streaking or staining of the metal.
Complete cleaning procedures and precautions are listed in the
(“Periodic Cleaning Procedure” under “Maintenance”).
START-UP PROCEDURE
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
To insure proper operation, your new model must be connected
to an individual circuit that can supply the full voltage as stated
on the cabinet serial data plate. For correct voltage, power draw,
and wire accommodations, check the data on the serial data
plate located on the inner right wall of your new model. Verify
that this information exactly matches the electrical character-
istics at the installation location. An electrical wiring diagram,
located on the inside compressor compartment rear, next to
the electrical console box, should also be consulted during
connection. For reference, a copy of each electrical wiring dia-
gram is located towards the back of this manual (see “Wiring
Diagrams” section).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The condensing unit supplied with
all self-contained models is designed to operate within a
range of +/-10% of the voltage indicated on the cabinet
serial data plate. Full voltage of the correct rating, on
an isolated line, not affected by the operation of other
electrical appliances, must be available to the refrigera-
tion unit at all times. Burnout of the compressor due to
exceeding high or low voltage limits is easily detected
and will void the factory warranty.
