Freezer defrost control: All Meridian two door and three door
freezers are equipped with a Paragon 8145 defrost control for
automatic defrosting of the evaporator coil.
To set time of day (Two & three door models only): Grasp
the knob of the Paragon 8145 time clock dial in the center
of the inner (2 hour) dial and rotate it in a counter-clockwise
direction (see figure 1). This will revolve the outer dial.
Continue turning until the correct time of day on the outer dial
lines up with the time pointer. This operation requires an initial
start-up and any time thereafter when there is an interruption
of power to the freezer.
Operation (Two & Three door models): The Paragon 8145
timer is preset at the factory to provide four defrosts per day
at six hour intervals starting at 6:00 am. If it is necessary
to change the number of defrosts due to unusual operating
conditions it can be accomplished by placing the pins in
the outer dial at the appropriate time of the day that defrost
initiation is desired.
Even under the most severe operating conditions it should not
be necessary to set the back-up time greater than 60 minutes.
Consult the factory if complete de-icing of the coil is not
accomplished within this time period.
