MAINTENANCE & REPAIR — PRE-SERVICE CHECK LIST

MAINTENANCE & REPAIR

You may avoid the cost and inconvenience of an
unnecessary service call by first reviewing this check
list of the most frequently encountered situations that
are not the result of system component failure.

COMPRESSOR RUNS TOO MUCH

1. A refrigerated cabinet automatically compensates for

service loading by running longer and more often.
Before calling for service, check running time for at
least one hour the first thing in the morning (before
store traffic starts).

2. Be sure doors seal. A faulty gasket seal will cause

increased running time.

3. Check the room temperature. The warmer the room,

the more the compressor will run.

4. Check to see that condenser fans are running.

5. Be sure the condenser fan operates.

6. Check to see that condenser fans are running.

7. If product is too hard, (cold) try setting the temperature

control (thermostat) warmer. This will result in warmer
cabinet temperature and reduced running time.

CABINET DOES NOT OPERATE

1. Be sure the cabinet is plugged in.

2. Check that the breakers or fuses are good and all

switches in the supply line are ON.

3. Be sure that cabinet Master Supply Switch is ON.

4. If you are in an area with voltage problems, try

shutting off all non-essential electric equipment.

LIGHT IS OFF

1. If the cabinet is operating, be sure the lamp is

properly seated in sockets.

2. If the cabinet is not running, check that Master Supply

Switch of cabinet is ON, fuses are okay, no switch in
the supply is off and the cabinet is plugged in.

CUSTOMER COMPLAINT
OR STORED PRODUCT

1. Check cleaning solutions used inside cabinet.

2. Check cleaning solutions, paint or other

contaminants used in store maintenance.

3. Sometimes the ingredients used in some products or

containers will contaminate other products.

4. Be sure to follow a weekly schedule for cleaning

cabinet interior.

SERVICE

In the event of a malfunction, damage to the cabinet, or
if the cabinet requires service beyond the items in the
“Pre-Service Check List,”

contact your local

refrigeration service company or the dealer or
distributor you purchased the unit from.

POWER FAILURE

Do not open the cabinet doors unnecessarily if power is
cut off due to electrical failure. The cabinet will start up
if the power supply returns, but will require sufficient
time to reach maximum cold storage performance.

CABINET FAILURE

1. If the cabinet has stopped operating, check that the

cabinet is securely plugged in and turned on. Contact
a licensed electrician to locate and correct any power
supply problems.

2. Do not open the cabinet lids unnecessarily.

3. Provisions for other storage of the product may be

required to prevent spoilage.

If you call us for service, describe the problem and give
the information from the following list to the service
representative:
