OPERATION
Initial Start Up
After satisfying the installation requirements, the freezer is ready to operate. The unit will start when the power cord is connected to
a live electrical receptacle. If the Compressor and Condenser Fan are not running when the unit is initially connected to power,
check to make sure that the Temperature Control is not set to the ‘off’ position. Allow the unit to run a minimum of two (2) hours
before loading it with product.
Temperature Control
The Temperature Control is located on the front panel of the cabinet and is factory set to maintain an average cabinet temperature
of approximately 0 Degrees Celsius. To obtain colder temperatures, press and hold the set button until the set point value flashes.
Use the up or down arrow buttons to change the value and then press the set button again. Allow the unit a minimum of one hour to
respond to a control setting adjustment.
Defrost
The SKMWF freezer is a manual defrost unit. The unit should be defrosted whenever the walls accumulate a frost bank that is 1/2
inch thick. To defrost the unit, first remove the product and the covers from the unit then either turn the Temperature Control to the
‘off’ position or disconnect the power cord from the electrical receptacle. After the frost has melted or come loose from the cabinet
walls, wipe out the cabinet interior with a sponge or position the unit over a floor drain and remove the drain plug allowing the
condensate to drain out of the cabinet and into the floor drain. Do not attempt to scrape or chisel off the frost as you could do
irreparable damage to the cabinet.
MAINTENANCE
Preventative maintenance is minimal although these few steps are very important to continued operation and maximizing the life of
the appliance.
Cabinet Surfaces
The interior and exterior surfaces are stainless steel and should be cleaned periodically with a solution of warm water and a mild
soap, rinsed with clean water and wiped dry. A good stainless steel cleaner can also be used. Should a surface become stained or
discolored, do not attempt to clean with an abrasive cleaner or scouring pad. Use a soft cleaner and rub with the grain of the metal
to avoid scratching the surface. Always rinse and dry afterwards. Do not use chlorinated cleaners on the stainless steel.
Condenser
Periodically, dust accumulated on the Condenser should be removed. First, disconnect the unit from the power supply. Remove
the service panel to expose the Condenser. Remove the accumulated dust by vacuuming or blowing air through the coil. This
procedure will save on Compressor running time (electrical costs) and also extend the life of the Compressor.
Casters
Retighten the Casters to the base of the unit regularly to prevent damage to the base of the cabinet.
