(2) 7-min. EvapFM delay timer terminates: (note that the 7-min. EvapFM delay time is a maximum; if the defrost thermistor cools to 25°F (-3.9°C) before the 7-min. EvapFM delay timer terminates, EvapFM icon turns on and EvapFM energizes): 4 min. after Comp and ConFM energize, confirm EvapFM icon turns on and EvapFM energizes.
C. Control Module Check 1. Control Module with Remote Display Module Before replacing CM that does not show a visible defect and that you suspect is bad, conduct the following check procedure. This procedure will help you verify your diagnosis. Always choose a neutral (W) to establish a good neutral connection when checking high voltages.
10) Check that the components restart after defrost termination. Refrigerator: DTh reaches 40°F (4.4°C), Comp and ConFM (CM C1 (R)) energize. If not, check DTh status. See "II.D.Thermistor Check." If DTh ohm reading is in proper range, and Comp and ConFM do not energize, replace DM and CM with HS kit. Freezer: DTh reaches 59°F (15°C).
10) Check that the components restart after defrost termination. Refrigerator: DTh reaches 40°F (4.4°C), Comp and ConFM (CM C1 (R)) energize. If not, check DTh status. See "II.D.Thermistor Check." If DTh ohm reading is in proper range, and Comp and ConFM do not energize, replace CM. Freezer: DTh reaches 59°F (15°C).

B. Temperature The temperature default scale is °F, but it can be changed to read °C. To change, see "III.B.3. Changing the Temperature Display Scale (°F or °C)" below. 1. Default Settings a) Temperature Setting: Refrigerator: 36°F (2°C). Freezer: -4°F (-20°C). b) Temperature Display Scale: °F.
b) Control Module with Integrated Display To change the temperature display scale, follow the steps below. 1) Press and hold both the up and down buttons for 5 sec. "PAS" appears briefly in the display, then "000" appears. 2) Press the up button to change the display to "001". 3) Press the SC button.
D. Alarm Safeties Alarm signals are designed to protect the appliance and food product. These alarms give information or warnings in the event the appliance is operating out of acceptable parameters. Should one of the alarms occur, follow the instructions in the table below to address the alarm.
2. Control Module with Integrated Display Alarm Signals Alarm Code Problem Corrective Action/Reset Details Cabinet Thermistor Malfunction Alarm Beeps for 10 sec., then silent for 50 sec.. To silence the alarm, press and release the up button. Cabinet thermistor has failed. Appliance cycles 5 min.
Note: Time may vary with compressor protector or high-pressure switch activation. 3. High-Pressure Switch If pressure on the high-side of the appliance exceeds Hoshizaki specifications, the high-pressure switch activates and interrupts the compressor circuit, de-energizing the compressor until the pressure returns to an acceptable level.
IV. Replacement of Components WARNING • The appliance should be diagnosed and repaired only by qualified service personnel to reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire. • Move the power switch to the "OFF" position, then unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet before servicing.
2. Brazing WARNING • R-134a and R-404A themselves are not flammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to 176°F (80°C). • R-134a and R-404A themselves are not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high temperatures (open flames), R-134a and R-404A can be decomposed to form hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.

5) Disconnect the gauge manifold hose from the vacuum pump and attach it to a refrigerant service cylinder. Remember to loosen the connection and purge the air from the hose. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. Hoshizaki recommends only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets ARI Standard 700 (latest edition) be used.
To change the door swing, an HS kit from your local Hoshizaki distributor is required. See the table below. NOTICE! Improper installation of the HS kit may result in the doors not closing completely and/or the gaskets not sealing correctly.
V. Maintenance WARNING • Move the power switch to the "OFF" position and unplug the appliance before performing maintenance to prevent electric shock or injury by moving parts. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the power switch or plug with damp hands.
VI. Preparing the Appliance for Periods of Non-Use WARNING • When preparing the appliance for long storage, prevent the doors from closing to reduce the risk of children getting trapped. • To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the attachment plug or power switch with damp hands.
VII. Disposal WARNING When preparing the appliance for disposal, remove the door to reduce the risk of children getting trapped. Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside. The appliance contains refrigerant and must be disposed of in accordance with applicable national, state, and local codes and regulations.
