Location Requirements
•
Appliances represented in this manual are intended for indoor use only.
•
Be sure the location chosen has a floor strong enough to support the total weight of the cabinet and contents as a fully
loaded unit can weigh as much as 800 pounds.
•
Reinforce the floor as necessary to provide for maximum loading.
•
For the most efficient refrigeration, be sure to provide good air circulation inside and out.
Inside cabinet:
Do not pack the units so full that air cannot circulate. The refrigerated air is discharged at the top rear of the unit. It is
important to allow for proper air flow from the top rear to the bottom of the unit. Obstructions to this air flow can cause
evaporator coil freeze ups and loss of temperature or overflow of water from the evaporator drain pan. The shelves have a
rear turn up on them to prevent this. However, bags and other items can still be located to the far rear of the cabinet.
Air is
brought into the evaporator coil with fans mounted to the front of the coil.
Outside cabinet:
Be sure that the unit has access to ample air. Avoid hot corners and locations near stoves and ovens.
It is recommended that the unit be installed no closer than 2" (51mm) from any wall, and a max door swing clearance of
60.5 in (1537mm).
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more persons to move and install
appliances
.
Failure to do so may result in back or other injury.
