PREPARING THE CABINET - GLASS FROSTERS

Refrigerant

All models covered in this user manual are
manufactured using refrigerant R290 (Propane).
R290 is a hydrocarbon. This refrigerant is
flammable and is only allowed for use in
appliances which fulfill the requirements of UL
471 (To cover potential risk originated from the
use of flammable refrigerants). Consequently,
R290 is only allowed to be used in refrigerating
appliances which are designed for this
refrigerant and fulfill the above-mentioned
standard.
■ R290 is heavier than air. The concentration
will always be highest at floor level.
■ The explosion limits are as follows:
- Lower Limit: 1.7% by vol. (37 g/m3)
- Upper Limit: 9.5% by vol. (177 g/m3)
- Ignition Temperature: 470 °C
Take caution when handling,

air flow between glasses.
■ When loading product into cabinet, care must
be taken to avoid blocking airflow into and out
of the evaporator. Maintain at least 2" of
clearance on evaporator air intake and
exhaust for proper operation.
Installing Casters or Legs (optional)
Attach casters or legs to the cabinet bottom in
holes provided. Use the supplied 1/4" - 20 hex
head self-tapping machine screws. If unit is tipped
on its back, wait 24 hours after unit is uprighted
to plug the unit in.

Placing the Cabinet

To assure maximum performance, fresh air must
be allowed to circulate through the machinery
compartment. It is important to allow at least
two inches of clearance at the back or left end
of the cabinet. Do not place anything in front of
the cabinet that would obstruct air flow at these
grilles. Do not place the unit in an unventilated
small room.
CAUTION
spacers without providing proper left side grill
clearance for compressor air flow will void the
warranty.
