CHECK FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE
Prior to leaving the factory, each cabinet is throughly inspected and
performance tested to assure proper operang temperatures.
Check the crate thoroughly for signs of shipping damage. If external
damage exists, internal damage is also probable. Uncrang should be done
while the carrier´s representave is present. Otherwise, the equipment
should be uncrated as soon as possible, preferably within ve (5) days.
The manufacturer is not responsible for in-transit damage and the
consignee must le any required damage claims directly with the carrier.
If the damage is severe and obvious, write a brief descripon of the evidence
on the carrier’s delivery receipt, and above the carrier representave’s
signature. Call the distributor or dealer immediately, indicang that the
cabinet was damaged.
If no obvious crate damage is present, within two hours of receiving the
cabinet from the carrier, remove the packaging to inspect for concealed
damage.
1. If concealed damage is found, call the carrier immediately, save all
crang materials, and le the necessary freight claim with the carrier.
Check for accesories: Check that the shelves are inside the refrigerator,
including the four clips or supports for each shelf.
11
HANDLING THE CABINET
1. Always move the unit in an upright posion. Do not set it on its side or upside
down as you may damage the cabinet and spill the compressor oil.
2. If liing the unit, hold it from its base. It is recommended to use a dolly.
3. Do not let the unit fall abruptly.
4. Place the cabinet on a surface solid enough to prevent vibraon and strong
enough to support the combined weight of the cabinet and the product load.
Quick guideline: Esmate 35 pounds per cubic foot of storage space.
5. Cabinets should never be placed in front of windows or glass doors where
sunlight will be in direct contact with the units. If a cabinet is located near
a window or glass door, provide an adequate shade to block the sun´s rays.
6. Ambient temperature must be between 60°F and 86°F. Low ambient
temperatures below 50° F are as harmful as high ambient temperatures.
Extreme temperatures will denitely aect the performance of the cabinet.
7. Failure to properly level the cabinet could hinder proper drainage and door
operaon. Leveling legs are provided with the cabinets. Level the cabinet by
using the adjustable poron of the leveling legs as needed.
8. Clearance: Leave a space of at least 8” between the back of the cabinet and
the wall to provide adequate air circulaon of the unit compartment.
