Introduction
The Scotsman RFE33 Compact Refrigerator is a
unique product, capable of being built into a
cabinet because of its front vented, forced-air
cooling system.
It's also designed to be a companion to
Scotsman's DCE33 Automatic Ice Machine. To
prevent door interference when installed to the left
of a DCE33, the RFE33 comes from the factory
with the door hinged on the left. The door swing
may be reversed to suit the installation.
The RFE33 keeps its interior cool by removing
heat from the freezing compartment at the top of
the storage area and exhausting that heat out the
right front grill.

Recovery techniques should be used where required for the amount of refrigerant in the system. Refrigeration ports are not part of factory construction. A suction side port must be added to service the refrigeration system. The compressor process tube is a good place to add the port.
