TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED MEAT LOCKER

The 26" deep side-by-side refrigerator/freezer is equipped with a chilled meat locker which will keep
the contents of the drawer approximately 5°F colder than the rest of the refrigerator section. (Fig. 5)
A slide on the front of the drawer operates a damper which directly controls the amount of freezer air
drawn into the drawer through an air duct.

CONTROL
For ice and water dispensing, a plumbing connection must be made between the household water
supply and the dual solenoid valve mounted on the rear cabinet rail.
Ice dispensing operates as follows:
1. The automatic ice maker is mounted on the
back wall of the freezer liner. Water automatically
fills the mold, freezes into ice and dumps ice into the
the storage bin.
2. When the storage bin is full, a shut-off arm prevents
additional ice production until ice has been removed,
which lowers the shut-off arm. The storage bin will hold
approximately 8 pounds of ice. A motor driven helix is
mounted near the bottom of the storage bin. (Fig. 7)
When energized, the helix moves the ice to the front of
the storage bin where ice is directed into a lift wheel
mechanism. (Fig. 8)
3. In cube mode, the helix turns ice lift wheel counter-clockwise.
Ice bypasses the crusher blades and is dispensed into a glass.
4. In crushed mode, the helix turns clockwise forcing the ice into the crusher blades. Crushed ice
pieces will vary in size and shape.
5. Keep bits of ice from being sprayed beyond glass by placing a glass with a large opening close to
the ice chute.
