OPERATION
Initial start up
After satisfying the installation requirements, the refrigerator is ready to start. The Compressor will start when the power cord is connected
to the required power source. If the Compressor does not start when the unit is initially plugged in, check to make sure that the
Temperature Control is not in the "off" position. Allow the unit to run for two hours before loading it with product. When loading the unit
with product, take care not to block the air flow in the cabinet as this would affect the units performance.
Temperature Control
The Temperature Control is located on the back panel of the cabinet and is factory set to maintain an average cabinet temperature of
approximately 38 degrees F (3 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
Your Silver King refrigerator unit defrosts naturally and no additional plumbing is required. Defrosting is accomplished when frost buildup
on the Evaporator Coil is cleared during Compressor "off" cycles. Defrost water is collected in a pan located in the compressor
compartment where it is evaporated into the room air. It is important that the unit be installed level to allow proper drainage of the defrost
water.
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 cabinet interior is aluminum and the exterior is stainless steel. These surfaces should be cleaned periodically with a solution of warm
water and mild soap, rinsed and wiped dry with a soft cloth. A good stainless steel cleaner can also be used. Should a surface become
stained, do not attempt to clean with an abrasive cleanser or scouring pad. Use a soft cleanser and rub with the grain of the metal to
avoid scratching the surface. Do not use chlorinated cleaners. Always rinse well and dry after cleaning.
Condenser
Periodically, dust on the condenser coil must be cleaned. The condenser is located on the bottom rear of the unit. Clean the
accumulated dust/debris from the condenser with a vacuum or brush or chemical cleaning agent (Nu-Calgon 4171-75 or equivalent).
This will need to be done regularly to maintain the compressor warranty!
WARNING: The condenser fins are very sharp, use caution when cleaning the condenser.
Door Gasket
The Door Gasket will collect dirt and should be wiped clean with a warm, mild soapy water solution to extend its life and assure
maximum cabinet performance and life.
