Page 3: Proper Disposal
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous… even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents. Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer: • Take off the doors. • Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside. USE OF EXTENSION CORDS NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD! TRUE will not warranty any refrigerator that has been connected to an extension cord.. -
Page 4: Connecting Electricity
True Food Service Equipment, Inc. HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the ground prong from the power cord. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a grounding plug which mates with a standard grounding wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with the properly grounded wall outlet. -

INSTALLATION / OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS INSTALLATION / OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS OWNERSHIP To ensure that your unit works properly from the first day, it must be installed properly. We highly recommend a trained refrigeration mechanic and electrician install your TRUE equipment. The cost of a professional instal- lation is money well spent.

Page 6: Uncrating
True Food Service Equipment, Inc. INSTALLATION / OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS UNCRATING & LOCATING UNCRATING The following procedure is recommended for uncrating the unit: A. Remove the outer packaging, (cardboard and bubbles or styrofoam corners and clear plastic). Inspect for concealed damage. Again, immediately file a claim with the freight carrier if there is damage. B. Move your unit as close to the final location as pos- sible before removing the wooden skid. C. Remove skid by unscrewing all base rail anchor brackets. (See image removing skid). Place skid to the side. LOCATING D. Set unit in its final location. Be sure there is adequate ventilation in your room. Under extreme heat conditions, (90°F+, 32°C+), you may want to install an exhaust fan. True recommends a two inch clearance behind the static condenser coil. It is not recommended to fit the unit into any kind of alcove. LEVELING A. Proper leveling of your TRUE cooler is critical to operating success (for non-mobile models). Effective condensate removal and door operation will be effected by leveling. -
Page 7: Electrical Instructions
INSTALLATION / OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS A. Before your new unit is connected to a power supply, check the incoming voltage with a voltmeter. If anything less than 100% of the rated voltage for operation is noted, correct immediately. SEALING CABINET TO COUNTERTOP Step 1 - Position Cabinet Allow one inch between the wall and rear of the GDM refrigerator to assure proper ventilation. For GDM freezers 3 inches between the wall and rear of the cabinet will assure proper ventilation. Step 2 - Level Cabinet Cabinet should be level, side to side and front to back. Place a carpenter’s level in the interior floor in four places: A. Position level in the inside floor of the unit near the doors. (Level should be parallel to cabinet front). Level cabinet. B. Position level at the inside rear of cabinet. (Again level should be placed parallel to cabinet back). C. Perform similar procedures to steps a & b by placing the level on inside floor (left and right sides - parallel to the depth of the cooler). Level cabinet. -
Page 8: Startup
True Food Service Equipment, Inc. INSTALLATION / OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS STARTUP A. The compressor is ready to operate. Plug in the cooler. B. The refrigerator is designed to maintain cabinet temperatures of 38˚F to 40˚F (3.3˚C to 4.4˚C). C. Excessive tampering with the control could lead to service difficulties. Should it ever become necessary to replace temperature control, be sure it is ordered from your TRUE dealer or recommended service agent. D. Good air flow in your TRUE unit is critical. Be careful to load product so that it neither presses against the back wall, nor comes within two inches of the evaporator housing. Refrigerated air off the coil must circulate down the back wall. Temperature Control and light switch are located next to each other on the interior ceiling of the cabinet behind the light and cabinet fan.

Page 10: Maintenance, Care & Cleaning
True Food Service Equipment, Inc. STAINLESS STEEL EQUIPMENT CARE AND CLEANING CAUTION: Do not use any steel wool, abrasive or chlorine based products to clean stainless steel surfaces. Stainless Steel Opponents There are three basic things which can break down your stainless steel’s passivity layer and allow corrosion to rear its ugly head. 1) Scratches from wire brushes, scrapers, and steel pads are just a few examples of items that can be abrasive to stainless steel’s surface. 2) Deposits left on your stainless steel can leave spots. You may have hard or soft water depending on what part of the country you live in. Hard water can leave spots. Hard water that is heated can leave deposits if left to sit too long. These deposits can cause the passive layer to break down and rust your stainless steel. All deposits left from food prep or service should be removed as soon as possible. 3) Chlorides are present in table salt, food, and water. Household and industrial cleaners are the worst type of chlorides to use. -
Page 11: Cabinet Cleaning
STAINLESS STEEL EQUIPMENT CARE AND CLEANING CONTINUED... Recommended cleaners for certain situations / environments of stainless steel A) Soap, ammonia and detergent medallion applied with a cloth or sponge can be used for routine cleaning. B) Arcal 20, Lac-O-Nu Ecoshine applied provides barrier film for fingerprints and smears. C) Cameo, Talc, Zud First Impression is applied by rubbing in the direction of the polished lines for stubborn stains and discoloring. D) Easy-off and De-Grease It oven aid are excellent for removals on all finishes for grease-fatty acids, blood and burnt-on foods. E) Any good commercial detergent can be applied with a sponge or cloth to remove grease and oil. F) Benefit, Super Sheen, Sheila Shine are good for restoration / passivation. The use of stainless steel cleaners or other such solvents is not recommended on plastic parts. -
