Adjusting the Temperature

mute

Your new refrigerator is already factory-set to run at

set

optimum temperatures for food safety and should

require no adjustments.

Refrigerators are set to cycle between a minimum temperature of 33 degrees Fahrenheit and a maximum temperature of 40 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 buttons 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.
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 circulation raises the coil

User Manual
Refrigerated Prep Tables
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.
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:
1. Press the defrost button (snowflake symbol and down arrow) for approximately 3 seconds. 2. Repeat to stop the defrost cycle.
Loading Food Pans
Pizza prep units and sandwich prep units are designed to function with all pans in place, even if some pans are to be left empty. For maximum food freshness, fill the pans only with an amount that can be used in a specific usage period. During non-use, please close the insulated lid cover.
Safety / Warning
Please pay close attention to the safety notices in this section. Disregarding these notices may lead to serious injury and/or damage to the unit.

Cleaning the Exterior of the Unit
· A soft cloth and clean warm water should always be the first choice for mild stains and loose dirt. A final rinse with clean water and a dry wipe will complete the process and eliminate the possibility of water stains.
· Only use soft cloths, microfiber sponges, or plastic scouring pads. – Avoid anything that might scratch the surface.
· Clean with the polish lines by wiping parallel to the grain lines.
· Use cleaning chemicals such as alkaline, alkaline chlorinated, and non-chloride chemicals. Chlorine-free cleaning options include acetone, methyl alcohol, and mineral spirits. – Noble Chemical offers Excel, a water-based aerosol cleaner and polish.
· If you are looking to sanitize your stainless steel, Noble’s QuikSan is a ready-to-use sanitizer that won’t damage stainless steel.

NEVER USE THE FOLLOWING PRODUCTS TO CLEAN STAINLESS STEEL

What

Why

Chloride-Based Cleaners

Using chlorine / bleach could result in pin holes.

Sharp Objects

Sharp edges can puncture the surface.

Onion / Olive Juice

A galvanic chemical reaction transfers to the metal and causes pin holes.

Scouring Pads

These will scratch the surface.

Hard Water

This may leave hard water spots and deposits that break down the stainless steel.

Condenser Coil Cleaning Instructions:
A dusty condenser may lead to high energy consumption, less cooling effectiveness, and compressor damage.
The condenser coil is located at the bottom behind the panel. 1. Disconnect the electrical power from the unit. 2. Remove the front cover and base cover with a screwdriver. 3. Using a soft brush and/or vacuum, remove the dirt, lint, etc. from the finned condenser coil in a
vertical direction. 4. Clean the condenser with a commercial condenser coil cleaner, available from any kitchen equipment
retailer. Ex. Noble Chemical Tech Line. 5. After cleaning, straighten any bent condenser fins with a fin comb. 6. When finished, be sure to reinstall the front cover and base cover. 7. Reconnect the electrical power to the unit.
