Functions
Adjusting the Temperature
Your new refrigerator is already factory-set to run at optimum temperatures for food safety and
should require no adjustments. Refrigerators are set to cycle between a minimum temperature of
33 degrees Fahrenheit.
Adjusting the temperature changes the minimum temperature your unit will run at. Your unit will
not run constantly at this setting. To change it, follow these instructions:
Digital Control Units
• Hold “SET” for 1 sec. The display will flash the current minimum temperature.
• Use the arrow button to adjust the minimum temperature you want it to run at.
• Press “SET” again to save your settings.
Always remember to calculate the differential if you change the minimum temperature setting.
The cabinet temperature will fluctuate up to +7 degrees over your set minimum temperature as
the compressor runs and shuts off. Setting the temperature too high will result in unsafe maximum
temperatures and possible health code violations.
Running a Manual Defrost Cycle
This unit is pre-programmed to run automatic defrost cycles at preset intervals. However, if you
would like to run a manual defrost cycle at any time, please follow the steps below:
Refrigerators: Press the defrost button (snowflake symbol and down arrow) for approximately 3
seconds. Repeat to stop the defrost cycle.
Defrost System:
Refrigerator coils are kept below the freezing point (32 degrees Fahrenheit). During compressor
downtime, the evaporator fan continues to circulate air through the evaporator coil. This air circu-
lation raises the coil temperature above the freezing point, melting any accumulated frost. Run-off
water is drained into the evaporator pan and evaporated. Automatic defrost timers automatically
initiate at pre-set intervals and for a pre-determined duration.
