    U G P - 2 2 Safety & Warnings If you smell gas Open windows • Don’t touch electrical switches • Extinguish any open flame • Immediately call your gas supplier • For your Safety Due to the potential of carbon monoxide (CO) from many different sources • inside your dwelling, and to meet most building codes, the dwelling must have a separate wall-mounted CO alarming device. This is beyond any safety devices/construction inherent to the Unique appliance. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the • vicinity of this unit or any other appliance Warning Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can • cause injury or property damage. Refer to this manual. For assistance or additional information consult a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier. This product can produce Carbon Monoxide. Carbon Monoxide has no • odour and can kill you. The burner and flue system must be kept clean. See owner’s manual for cleaning instructions. Installation Instructions The installation of the appliance must conform with •...
  • Page 7 U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Chapter Installation of Appliance For best performance at high ambient temperatures, there must be free air circulation over the cooling unit at the rear of the refrigerator. Ensure that there is a free air space above the refrigerator and that the flue (chimney) on top of the cabinet is not covered in any way. Do not place the refrigerator in a space where air circulation is restricted. Follow “clearance” instructions. This free-standing refrigerator requires accessibility to the back for servicing the gas equipment, which can be obtained by using a certified Flexible Metal Connector to allow the refrigerator to be withdrawn without disrupting the gas supply. “Where a flexible metal connector is used, it must comply with local authorities and in Canada with the provisions of the current Standard CAN 1-6.10, Metal Connectors for Gas Appliances”. However, if the Local Authorities require a rigid gas supply connector, the refrigerator should be located with sufficient space at the back for servicing or, if located against a wall a removable panel of a minimum size of 16” x 20” should be provided in the wall to allow access to the rear of the refrigerator. . If you purchased a CM (CO Monitor model) you must follow instructions in Section 6 - 5.0 onward. Heat Shield The heat shield must be installed before operating the appliance. This is a CSA requirement. Un-wrap the heat shield (located inside the box along with the appliance). Mount heat shield with the screws (supplied) to left side of the fridge. See diagram.
  • Page 8 U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Clearances Minimum clearances to combustible materials are: Top – 10” Sides – 2” Rear – 1” with left hand side rear shield mounted as shown in Figures. 1, 2 & 3. Note: DO NOT install the appliance directly on carpeting. Carpeting must be removed or protected by a metal or wood panel beneath the appliance, which extends at least the full width and depth of the appliance. Air Flow - to release heat trap Fig#1 - This is ideal as both top and sides are open • Fig#2 – During hot/humid weather this confined area will become very • warm. To reduce heat build-up, we recommend providing an area for two air vents to circulate the air. One placed 6” off the floor and the other at or above the appliance top. Cold air return vents with adjustable louvers, work very well. This will allow hot air to evacuate the area and assist in air flow across the fins (similar to air passing across a radiator) – See Fig #4 Fig#3 – If this is your opening you only need to stay the diagramed distance • from the wall and ceiling. There is no need for additional venting.
  • Page 9 U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Gas Connection Hook-up to the gas supply line: 3/8” SAE (UNF 5/8” - 18) male flare connection. A backup wrench must be used when tightening gas supply fitting. All completed connections should be checked for leaks with a non-corrosive leak detector and/or soap and water for a bubble check. – ARNING O NOT USE FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regulator to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 12” water column and no less than 11” water column. (Max setting) Make sure the refrigerator and any other high BTU appliances on your line are turned on when checking the gas pressure. The appliance and its individual shut- off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of ½” psig. In case detailed instructions on the installation and connection of the gas supply are required, contact your dealer or distributor. Leveling Ensure the fridge is level by using a 2ft level. This is accomplished by adjusting the feet at the front, underneath the fridge.
  • Page 10: General Operating Instructions

    U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Chapter General Operating Instructions Importance of Leveling a Refrigerator The refrigerator must be adjusted to a vertical position in both directions. In an absorption refrigeration system, ammonia is liquefied in the finned condenser coil at the top rear of the refrigerator. The liquid ammonia then flows into the evaporator (inside the freezer section) and is exposed to circulating flow of hydrogen gas, which causes the ammonia to evaporate, creating a cold condition in the freezer. When starting this refrigerator for the very first time, the cooling cycle may require up to 8 hours of running time to begin cooling before the unit is fully operational. After 8 hours you can slowly begin loading the compartment. The tubing in the evaporator section is specifically sloped to provide a continuous movement of liquid ammonia, flowing downward by gravity through this section. If the refrigerator is operated when not level, liquid ammonia will accumulate in sections of the evaporator tubing. This will slow the circulation of hydrogen and ammonia gas, or in severe cases, completely block it, resulting in a loss of cooling. Warranty will not cover recharge/rebuild if caused by not running the fridge level. This refrigerator operates only on LP Gas (Propane) Note: After changing an LP tank, or after a long shut off period, the gas line is likely to be filled with air. You may have to repeat the lighting procedure several times to purge the air out of the gas lines.We suggest first turning off gas at the control panel, then the tank,this will reduce an air trap in the gas line.
  • Page 11: Gas Operation

    U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Gas Operation “Start Up” Procedure – see Figure # 5 on next page for control panel 1. Locate the control panel below at the bottom front of fridge 2. Turn the gas shut off valve C to the ON position – to the left 3. Turn thermostat button B fully clockwise (Max), start to spark igniter button A before depressing the gas control button E, there may be a period of time required for air to escape from the gas line and flow up to burner. Length of time will vary depending on distance of the fridge to propane tank. Continue pushing the igniter button while holding in the gas button until the needle in the flame indicator D moves into the green area (to the left). 4. When the needle starts to move into the green area, this means flame is now lit. Stop sparking and continue to hold gas button E down for an additional 10 seconds. Release gas button, fridge should now stay lit and the needle should remain in the green area. 5. Once all the above has been done and you are ready to re-start your fridge for use, leave the thermostat button at “4”. Setting the thermostat to "4" will allow the fridge to get to optimum cooling temperature. It may be necessary to adjust the temperature control on the thermostat knob to suit your needs. 6. The quantity of food in the refrigerator, the frequency with which the refrigerator doors are opened and the room temperature will all affect refrigerator temperatures. “Shut Down” Procedure 1. Turn knob C to Gas “Off” position – to the right.
  • Page 12 U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Figure #5 Thermostat A thermostat controls the refrigerator cooling temperature; it can be adjusted by turning knob B to different settings to maintain the desired refrigerator temperature. Knob E also incorporates a safety device, which automatically shuts off the supply of gas if the flame goes out. The piezo electric igniter discharges sparks onto the burner when the button is pushed. 1. “Defrost” Defrost Setting on the Gas Thermostat: In gas operation, the thermostat closes its main valve and the burner runs continuously at the bypass rate or pilot flame (counter clockwise turn). 2. “Max” Setting of the Thermostat: In gas operation, the thermostat allows the burner to remain on high flame continuously (clockwise turn). 3. The thermostat can be adjusted between “Max” and “Defrost” to obtain the desired fridge temperature. When the thermostat reaches the set temperature, it will cut the burner back to bypass operation. The setting of the thermostat is critical and recommend it be adjusted to maintain a dry frost on the cooling fins (approx 38° Freinhight or 3° Celcius) . Adjust the thermostat knob closer to “Max” (clockwise) when the outside temperature rises.
  • Page 13: How To Use The Refrigerator

    U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 How to Use the Refrigerator FOOD STORAGE COMPARTMENT The food storage compartment is completely closed and unventilated, which is necessary to maintain the required low temperature for food storage. The coldest areas in the refrigerator are under the cooling fins and at the bottom of the refrigerator. The warmer areas are on the upper door shelves. This should be considered when placing different types of food in the refrigerator. FROZEN FOOD STORAGE COMPARTMENT Quick frozen soft fruits and ice cream should be placed in the coldest part of the compartment which is at the bottom of the aluminum liner. Frozen vegetables, may be stored in any part of the compartment. This compartment is not designed for deep or quick freezing of food. Meat or fish, whether raw or prepared, can be stored in the frozen food storage compartment provided they are pre-cooled in the refrigerator. To prevent food from drying out, keep it in covered dishes, containers, plastic bags or wrapped in aluminum foil. Defrosting Frost will gradually accumulate inside the refrigerator and freezer surfaces. It must not be allowed to grow too thick as it acts as an insulator and adversely affects the refrigerator performance. Check the formation of frost every week and when it exceeds 3/8” thick, defrost the refrigerator. It will not hurt the fridge to have the ice buildup. If it gets too thick it will act as an insulator and hamper the cooling ability of the fridge. Defrosting can be done with the fridge running if so desired. Simply open both doors and turn thermostat to defrost, or fully counter clockwise. Once the ice starts to melt a towel can be placed under the evaporator fins in the fridge, then pull off the ice. Wipe the fins clean and shut both doors. For the freezer, defrosting time can be reduced by filling a tray with hot water and placing it in the freezer...
  • Page 14: Cleaning

    U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 RIDGE ECTION Inside the refrigerator compartment, the defrost water runs from a collector channel to a drip tray/cup at the rear of the refrigerator where it normally evaporates. If heavy frost has built up on the cooling fins creating a lot of defrost water, beware your water reservior may overflow, we suggest you inspect reservoir before and after cycle. REEZER ECTION This area must be wiped down with cloths to remove water after defrosting; there is no drain for this compartment Note: When all frost has melted in the freezer compartment and interior of the refrigerator it should be wiped up with a clean cloth. Set the thermostat to its Max position until the desired interior temperature has been achieved, approx 8 plus hrs dependant on room temperature, and then replace all food. Cleaning Cleaning the refrigerator is usually done after it is defrosted or put into storage. To clean the interior liner of the refrigerator, use lukewarm dish soap solution. Use only warm water to clean the finned evaporator, gasket, ice trays and shelves. Never use strong chemicals or abrasives to clean these parts as the protective surfaces will be damaged. It is important to always keep the refrigerator clean. Dish soap is recommended Interior Light The interior light is located inside the fridge compartment at the top. You can replace it by unscrewing counter clockwise. Four “D” size batteries operate the interior light. The battery compartment is located on the exterior back of the fridge, upper right side while facing the back of the fridge.
  • Page 15 Chapter U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Maintiance & Service The user should be aware of service that must be done on a regular schedule to keep the refrigerator operating properly. Installation must be by a licensed gas fitter in accordance with local codes or in the absence of local national Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z233.1 and in Canada B149.2 Propane Storage and Handling Code (latest edition). REFRIGERATOR REMOVAL Before working on the refrigerator, shut off the gas supply. Disconnect the gas supply line at the rear of the refrigerator. Always use a back up wrench when loosening and tightening this connection. Cap the gas supply line and remove the refrigerator. Replacement is the reverse of removal. Check all connections for gas leaks. Refer to Chapter 2 INSTALLATION PERIODIC MAINTENANCE Before working on refrigerator, shut off the gas supply. Disconnect the gas line at the rear of the refrigerator. Always use a back up wrench when loosening and tightening this connection. Cap the gas supply line and remove refrigerator.

Clean the flue from the top using a flue brush, be sure to cover the burner if remaining intact to eliminate dirt falling into burner. Replace the flue baffle. Clean burner tube with compressed air, check for fluff or spider webs. Before removing burner orifice, clean burner area of any soot, scale or dirt. Remove the orifice and soak it in alcohol (isopropyl alcohol or thinners) and blow it out with compressed air. Re-install and tighten burner orifice. Re-install burner Warning - DO NOT use a pin or wire when cleaning the burner orifice as damage can occur to the precision opening. This can cause damage to the refrigerator or create a fire hazard. It will also create extremely dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. Be sure to reconnect the wire to the electrode. Check the electrode for proper location and gap. See figure #8 Fig. #8 The inlet & outlet gas fittings on the refrigerator need to be checked for leaks. Apply a non corrosive bubble solution to the fittings and observe for leaks. The safety valve will not allow gas pressure to any connections between it and the burner orifice. These fittings must be checked while burner is in operation (gas flow will be present between saftey valve and burner head). – The safety valve (“E” button Fig#5) must be ARNING manually depressed to allow gas pressure to flow to the burner orifice. Be sure to apply the leak check solution before...

    U N I Q U E U G P - 2 2 Chapter Temperature Controls Note: Maximum setting is override; therefore the thermostat function is not operational at this setting. This setting is usually only required during very hot and humid days. COOL DOWN PERIOD To ensure safe food storage, allow the refrigerator to operate with the doors closed for at least 8 hours before loading it with food. REFRIGERATOR CONTROL NOTE: When first setting the controls or when changing a setting, wait 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize before making additional changes. TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT Adjust temperature gradually: move the knob in small increments, allowing • the temperature to stabilize. For colder interior temperatures, turn the knob clockwise. • For warmer interior temperatures, turn the knob towards counter-clockwise • Adjusting the refrigerator control will change temperatures in both compartments. Remember there is no fan to circulate the air in the refrigerator and freezer compartments as in an electric fridge. For good circulation, do not block the internal cooling fins on back-wall and try to maintain a temperature of 38° F or 4°C in the fridge NOTE: When first turning refrigerator on, move refrigerator controls to maximum, which is the recommended initial setting. After 24 hours, adjust the controls as needed.
