RECEIVING YOUR NEW MODEL

Congratulations on your purchase of Continental Refrigerator superior foodservice equipment! When your shipment arrives, thoroughly examine the packaging for any punctures, dents or signs of rough handling. It is in your best interest to partially remove or open the shipping container to examine the contents for any missing accessories or concealed damage which may have occurred during shipment. If the cabinet is damaged, it must be noted on the carrier’s delivery slip or bill of lading and a Freight Claim must be filed with the shipping company. FREIGHT DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND IMPORTANT OPERATING FACTS

This manual has been compiled to aid in the installation, opera tion and maintenance of your equipment. Please read it and familiarize yourself with your equipment, its operation and avail able accessories, to enjoy optimum performance.

This equipment is prohibited from use in California with any refrigerants on the “List of Prohibited Substances” for that specific end-use, in accordance with California Code of Regulations, title 17, section 95374. This disclosure statement has been reviewed and approved by NRAC, Inc. and NRAC, Inc. attests, under penalty of perjury, that these statements are true and accurate.

SERIAL DATA TAG

A serialized data tag is permanently attached to the inside right hand wall of your unit. (see Figure 1). In addition to identifying the specific product, this label provides important information regarding electrical requirements and refrigeration charge, as well as agency listings and factory contacts.

FIGURE 1: Data Tag

IMPORTANT NOTE: The model and serial number should

be noted on the front cover of this manual, in the spaces provided. If parts or service are ever needed for your unit, this information will be required to verify warranty status and to properly identify any parts that may be needed.

All cabinets must be given sufficient time to reach normal operating temperature before placing any food inside cabinet or pans (if equipped). For refrigerators, approximately 1 hour of operation is required to lower the cabinet and pan tempera ture to 40°F (4°C). During pull-down of open top models, pans should be in place and top lid should be kept closed. Freezers require approximately 2 hours of operation to lower the cabinet temperature to 0°F (-18°C) (see “Operation” section for further information).

Prior to factory shipping, all products are performance-run tested for a minimum of 12 hours providing a highly sophis ticated temperature recording exclusive to each individual cabinet. This recording is supplied within this manual packet. A final evaluation, including analysis of cabinet performance, leak check, vibration, noise level and visual examination is made by a qualified quality control team to assure a superior product. The carrier signs to this effect when they accept the product for shipping. To insure the maximum in safety and sanitation, all models are listed under applicable Underwriters Laboratories and National Sanitation Foundation standards.

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK KEEP ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND CONTROLS DRY - DO NOT SPRAY WITH WATER!

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN CAUSE A HAZARD & VOID FACTORY WARRANTY.

UNCRATING YOUR NEW MODEL

IMPORTANT: Your equipment should never be transport-

ed on legs/casters unless the cabinet bottom is properly supported. Consult the factory for more information.

The protective packaging should remain on your cabinet to avoid dents or scratches while transporting to the actual set-up loca tion. All shelving, accessories and legs or casters are carefully packaged and secured inside your cabinet to prevent damage. After moving unit to its final location, remove all the staples from around the bottom of the crate using a pry bar. Slide the cardboard carton up and off the unit, being careful not to rub against the cabinet. Remove any accessories or boxes on the skid. Dispose of all packaging materials properly.

OPERATIONS MANUAL

3

REFRIGERATED BASES & PIZZA PREP TABLES Four (4) bolts secure the cabinet to the wooden skid. The bolts are located at each end on the underside of the skid. In order to remove these bolts, tilt the cabinet backwards and place wooden blocks at each end in order to hold it in its tilted posi tion. Using a ¾” socket or open end wrench, remove the bolts and carefully slide the cabinet off of the skid. After skid removal, the cabinet should never be moved without dollies or rollers to avoid damage to the cabinet bottom or floor.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not under any circumstances, lay

your new model on its front or sides. For a brief period of time, you may lay the cabinet on its back, but only when it’s properly blocked so as not to crush the louvered venting panel and also to allow provision for your hands, in order to set it in its upright position without damaging the cabinet. Do not plug in and operate model for at

least three (3) hours after cabinet is set upright from being on its back as this can damage the compressor.

erating equipment including ovens, fryers, dishwashers, steam kettles, etc. Do not install in direct sunlight (where temperatures may exceed 100°F) or in an unheated area (where temperatures may drop below 55°F).

Air supply to the condensing unit is critical. Restricting airflow places excessive heat load on the unit, adversely affecting its operation and may cause premature failure. The condenser coil must be kept clean and free from obstruction. Condenser air fil ters are not recommended, since they hinder airflow, especially if they are not replaced frequently. Contact our factory Service Department for more information.

For optimum performance, all models should be installed on casters or legs (see “Installing Casters” or “Legs”) with a minimum 3” on each side and back of cabinet (see Figure 2). This spacing will provide sufficient room for proper air circula tion and clearance to access components for cleaning and main tenance. If any of these conditions cannot be met, the installer should provide special venting or air ducts, as required.

INSTALLATION AND LOCATION

Before moving the cabinet to its final point of installation, mea sure all doorways or passages to assure clearance. If additional clearance is needed, you can remove the cabinet doors (see “Removal of Doors and Door Adjustment”) and lids (when equipped) (see “Removing Lid and Hood”).

VENTILATION

The final location site of your air cooled refrigerator or freezer must provide a sufficient quantity of cool, clean air. All refrigera tion systems operate more efficiently and trouble-free with cool, dry air circulation. Avoid locations near heat and moisture gen IMPORTANT NOTE: For maximum efficiency, your new

cabinet must be located where an unrestricted air supply can circulate above and behind it. Never obstruct the face of the condenser or the grill area in the front of the cabinet and never place or store anything inside the cabinet machine compartment. These rules are essential for long life. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES MAY

VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

FLOOR LOADS

The floor at the final location site must be level, free of vibration FIGURE 2: Minimum Clearance Dimensions for Optimum Conditions (Except for Undercounter & Front Breathing Models)

A REFRIGERATED BASES & PIZZA PREP TABLES and strong enough to support the total combined weights of your new model plus the maximum product load which might be placed into it. Keep in mind that all the weight is concentrated at the caster or leg locations. To estimate the possible product weight, assume that each cubic foot of storage space weighs approximately 35 pounds. Multiply 35 pounds by the amount of cubic feet in the cabinet to obtain the product load weight.

For example, a 20 cubic foot refrigerator can hold approximately 700 pounds of product (35 x 20). Assuming the cabinet itself weighs 300 pounds, the total combined weight of cabinet and product is approximately 1000 pounds. Therefore, the floor in this example must be able to support up to 1000 pounds.

INSTALLING CASTERS AND LEVELING

If your new unit is supplied with swivel casters, they will be packed in the accessory box that came with your cabinet. Casters should be installed only when the cabinet is close to its final installation site. To install casters on your new model, place wooden blocks along the back, at each end. Tilt the cabi net back, using the wood blocks to help hold the cabinet in its tilted position. Locate the large threaded holes on the bottom of the cabinet and screw the threaded caster studs into the mounting holes, closest to the front of the unit. Repeat this procedure by tilting the cabinet in the opposite direction and installing the remaining casters. Make sure the casters are tightened extremely well (see Figure 3 & 3A). If the casters are not installed tightly, the cabinet will be unstable and may sway or rock, which can damage the cabinet. If the height of a caster needs to be raised, shims must be installed under the casters which need leveling. Extra large washers, available at most hardware or furniture stores, can be used to shim casters, or contact the factory for caster shims.

Do not attempt to level casters by unscrewing them from the cabinet and leaving them loose, as this will cause damage to the cabinet and leg hole threads, voiding all warranties. FIGURE 3A: Casters Must be Tight to Cabinet Bottom

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is extremely important that your

cabinet is perfectly level for proper operation. If it is not level, the following adverse conditions may occur: 1. The door(s) will not be properly aligned and consequently will not provide a good seal. 2. Your unit may run excessively.

3. An excessive amount of ice will accumulate inside the cabinet, around the door opening(s) and on the finned evaporator coil. If allowed to continue, ice will eventually block the coil and the unit will fail. This can result in the loss of all food stored in the cabinet. 4. Defrost water will fail to drain properly and will overflow the evaporator coil drain pan and into the cabinet of both refrigerator and freezer models.

CASTER BLOCKS

INSTALLING LEGS AND LEVELING

If your new unit is supplied with adjustable legs, they will be packed in the accessory carton in the cabinet. Your cabinet will have either four (4) or (6) threaded mounting holes on the bot tom of the cabinet (see Figure 4). In order to install the legs, carefully tip the cabinet back, adding four (4) 2” wood blocks underneath, and simply screw the threaded leg studs into the case bottom front leg holes. Repeat this procedure by tilting the cabinet in the opposite direction and install the remaining legs. Make sure the legs are tightened extremely well or the entire model will sway or rock with each opening or closing of the doors, possibly causing damage to the case bottom. This pro cedure should be performed close to the final installation site. 04/29/10 OPERATIONS MANUAL

DOOR ADJUSTMENT

All doors are aligned at the factory, however vibration during transit may cause them to shift and adjustment may be neces sary. If a door requires realignment, carefully open the door (90°) and loosen, but do not remove the mounting screws securing both the top (see Figure 6) and bottom (see Figure 8) hinge brackets to the cabinet. Move the door to the desired position by hand or by gently tapping on the edge with a rubber mallet. Hold the door firmly in place and tighten all mounting screws securely, above and below the door. Check alignment and repeat adjustment if necessary.

CONDENSATE REMOVAL

All models utilize a unique hot air condensate water evaporat ing system which is completely self-contained and no further assembly or maintenance is required (see Figure 5). In some adverse conditions such as high ambient temperature, high humidity, extremely heavy usage, frequent loading for prolonged periods of time, or heavy pan loading, the amount of conden sate water generated could overflow the pan. If this occurs, the plastic drain tube from the cabinet can be diverted directly to a floor drain, bypassing the condensate pan. Alternatively, an optional electric condensate heater may be purchased as an accessory. An electric condensate heater is also supplied with all remote models. To install the electric heater, see “Installing

Electric Condensate Heater” in the “Optional Accessories”

section at the back of this manual.

HINGE TENSION ADJUSTMENT

The self-closing doors on your unit have a spring-loaded hinge cartridge concealed in the door (see Figure 7) with a hold-open feature and a cushioned stop. When the door is fully opened (115°) the hinge should be tension free. When the door is moved between the open and closed position, the spring-loaded hinge will automatically rotate the door toward the closed posi tion. For proper operation, self-closing doors must be installed with the spring-loaded hinge mechanism set to apply tension in the proper direction (see Figure 8). To adjust spring tension, open the door fully (115°) so it stays in position when released. Remove the mounting screws secur ing the cartridge bracket to the cabinet (see Figure 6). The bracket should stay in position when released, but if it is moved or bumped, it may snap into the closed position.

REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF DOORS

If you need to remove a door from your cabinet, first identify the location of the spring-loaded hinge cartridge (see Figure 8). Depending on the age of your cabinet, the cartridge is located either on the top or the bottom of the door.

CAUTION: THE HINGE CARTRIDGE IS SPRING LOADED AND THE BRACKET MAY SNAP TOWARDS THE DOOR!

For doors with spring cartridge on the top: open the door fully (115°) and remove the mounting screws (see Figure 6) secur ing the hinge cartridge bracket to the cabinet above the door (the bracket should stay in the open position, but if it is moved it may snap closed). Pick the door straight up, being careful not to bump the cartridge bracket, and lift it off the pivot pin bracket below the door. To reinstall a door, reverse this procedure and follow the instructions above to set the hinge tension and adjust the door properly.

For doors with spring cartridge on the bottom: open the door fully (115°) and remove the mounting screws securing the

RE-HINGING DOORS

IMPORTANT NOTE: DOORS ARE FIELD REVERSIBLE,

BUT DIFFERENT HINGE BRACKETS ARE REQUIRED. HAVE YOUR MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBER READY AND CONTACT THE FACTORY FOR THE PARTS NEEDED FOR YOUR UNIT.

Remove the door and hinge cartridge bracket from the cabinet, as described above (see Figure 7). Remove the pivot bracket, located at the opposite edge of the door (see Figure 8) by loosening the (2) mounting screws. Remove the hinge cartridge from the door by removing the (2) screws and sliding the car tridge out. Remove the plastic pivot insert from the opposite end of the door by carefully prying it out with a flat-blade screwdriver or putty knife. Remove the remaining “filler screws” from the face of the cabinet and reinstall them in the threaded holes where the brackets were originally mounted.

To re-assemble the reverse-hinged door, obtain the correct cartridge bracket and pivot bracket for the top and bottom of the “opposite-hand” door (see Figure 8 for parts identification). Follow the steps above, in reverse order.

PREP TOP PAN OPENINGS

Sandwich top models are provided with food pans and divider bars. All pans must be kept in place whenever your unit is oper ating and lids should be closed whenever possible for optimum performance. To remove the lid over the pans (see Figure 9), lift it 1/2 way up and carefully push in on one end at the bottom corner, so the pivot pin comes out of the mating hole in the hood. Swing the end of the lid forward, so it clears the end of the hood. Slide the entire lid sideways, so the pivot pin on the opposite end is free from the hood. If you have an insulated lid, to remove the liner and insulation, take out the screws along the back edge, let the back of the liner drop down and rotate it so the front edge of the liner disengages from the front of the lid. To remove the hood from the cabinet, take out the screws located inside each end and along the back edge.

Pizza Prep Tables are provided with a flat lid to cover the pan rail. All pans must be in place when your unit is operating and lids should be closed whenever possible for optimum performance. To remove the lid covering the pans on Pizza Prep models (see Figure 9A) rotate it 1/2 way up and lift the lid forward and up, so the hinge pins disengage from the hinge bracket. If you need to disassemble an insulated lid, see instructions above.

INTERIOR ACCESSORIES

Your new unit is shipped with (1) shelf per section and (4) pilas ter clips for each shelf.

SHELVING INSTALLATION

Pilaster strips which support the shelving are secured to the cabinet walls with special pilaster screws which allow the strips to be readily removed for cleaning without the use of tools. Shelf clips are easily installed by inserting them into the pilasters at the desired shelf location and shelf installation is as simple as placing the shelf on the clips (see Figure 10).

FIGURE 10: Standard Shelf Pilaster

IMPORTANT NOTE: The top opening on your sandwich

top must be completely filled with pans at all times, even if some pans are empty, to maintain air flow for proper cabinet and pan temperature.

INITIAL CLEANING PROCEDURE

Prior to start-up and before placing any product inside of your new model, the interior of the cabinet should be thoroughly cleaned. Remove the protective film (which is clear on some models) from all interior sides, bottom and other internal metal panels, by working the corner loose and slowly pulling the film back. Washing with a mild soap and warm water solution is recommended for cleaning the aluminum and stainless steel surfaces of your cabinet. This should be followed by cleaning with a baking soda solution (three (3) tablespoons of baking soda to each quart of warm water). Wipe down thoroughly with a damp cloth or sponge that has been soaked in clean water and wrong out thoroughly, and dry with a clean, soft cloth.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Never use harsh detergents, clean-

ers, scouring powders or chemicals when cleaning your model. Failure to dry the interior surfaces after cleaning may result in a streaking or staining of the metal.

Complete cleaning procedures and precautions are listed in the (“Periodic Cleaning Procedure” under “Maintenance”).

START-UP PROCEDURE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

To insure proper operation, your new model must be connected to an individual circuit that can supply the full voltage as stated on the cabinet serial data plate. For correct voltage, power draw, and wire accommodations, check the data on the serial data plate located on the inner right wall of your new model. Verify that this information exactly matches the electrical character istics at the installation location. An electrical wiring diagram, located on the inside compressor compartment rear, next to the electrical console box, should also be consulted during connection. For reference, a copy of each electrical wiring dia gram is located towards the back of this manual (see “Wiring Diagrams” section).

IMPORTANT NOTE: The condensing unit supplied with

all self-contained models is designed to operate within a range of +/-10% of the voltage indicated on the cabinet serial data plate. Full voltage of the correct rating, on an isolated line, not affected by the operation of other electrical appliances, must be available to the refrigera tion unit at all times. Burnout of the compressor due to exceeding high or low voltage limits is easily detected and will void the factory warranty.

GFI/GFCI RECEPTACLES

Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI or GFI) devices are not recommended for most commercial refrigerators and freezers, since nuisance trips may occur, typically due to moisture. This can cause temporary loss of power, which may result in high storage temperatures and potentially unsafe food product.

Building codes in some areas may require certain 115 volt receptacles to be protected by a GFI. If you need to connect your equipment to a protected circuit, a properly sized, commercial grade GFI circuit breaker should be used on a separate, isolated power supply. Or a qualified electrician may be able to hard wire your equipment, eliminating the need for a GFI device. Contact Continental’s Service Department before making any modifica tions to your cabinet, to avoid loss of warranty.

NOTE: GFI RECEPTACLES ARE NOT RECOMMENDED, PRODUCT LOSS OR SERVICE PROBLEMS RESULTING FROM NUISANCE TRIPS, CONNECTION TO A DEFECTIVE OR IMPROPER POWER SUPPLY, AND UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR EQUIPMENT CAN CAUSE A HAZARD AND WILL VOID FACTORY WARRANTY.

115 VOLT, 60 HZ, 1 PHASE CONNECTION

All 115 volt models are provided with a factory installed, UL approved 15-amp power cord and NEMA 5-15P plug, or a 20-amp power cord and NEMA 5-20P plug. To insure proper operation, this equipment must be plugged into a NEMA compatible, grounded receptacle that can sup ply the full voltage and amperage stated on the serial plate (see Figure 1).

Some 115 volt models (including CPA118) require 20 amp sup ply power and must be plugged into a NEMA 5-20R receptacle.

IMPORTANT NOTE: A SEPARATE, ISOLATED, PROPERLY

SIZED POWER SUPPLY MUST BE PROVIDED. GFCI DEVICES AND/OR EXTENSION CORDS SHOULD NOT BE USED. PRODUCT LOSS, AS WELL AS PROBLEMS RESULTING FROM NUISANCE TRIPS OR HIGH/LOW VOLTAGE, ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

CAUTION: IF UNIT IS UNPLUGGED OR DISCONNECTED FOR ANY REASON, ALLOW 5-6 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING THE UNIT BACK ON TO ALLOW THE SYSTEM TO EQUALIZE. DISREGARDING THIS PROCEDURE COULD CAUSE AN OVERLOAD AND PREVENT THE UNIT FROM OPERATING.

SPECIAL VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS

When models are ordered from the factory with special, optional voltages, connections should be made as required on the electri cal wiring diagram provided on the inside compressor compart ment rear next to the electrical console box.

START-UP CHECKLIST

After your unit has been installed and electrically connected in accordance with this manual, please take time to check the fol lowing before loading product, to assure trouble free operation: (see “Electrical Connections”) (see “Installation and Location”) (see “Door Removal and Adjustment”) (see “System and Adjustment”) Sufficient clearance provided (see “Ventilation”) Separate supply with correct voltage Cabinet level and casters/legs tight Doors close and seal properly Correct cabinet temperature Thermometer calibrated (see “Thermometer”) (see “Refrigeration System”) Refrigeration lines free of kinks and vibration All fans rotate freely (see “Refrigeration System”) (see “Freezer System and Adjustment”) Freezers only: defrost clock set Pilaster clips secure and shelves level (see “Shelving Installation”) (see “Pizza Prep and Sandwich Top Pan Openings”) Pizza & Sandwich: All pans and dividers in place All packaging discarded and cabinet cleaned (see “Periodic Cleaning”) The system should run smoothly and quietly in accordance with generally accepted commercial standards. If any unusual noises are heard, turn the unit off immediately and check for any obstructions of the condenser or evaporator fans. Fan motors, fan blades, or fan housings can be jarred out of position through rough handling in transit or during installation.

OPERATION WITH MECHANICAL THERMOSTAT

All cabinets must be given sufficient time to reach normal oper ating temperature before placing any product inside cabinet. Refrigerators are designed to maintain an ideal cabinet tem perature of 38° to 40°F (3.3° to 4.4°C), approximately 1 hour of operation is required to reach this temperature. During pull down of open top models, pans should be in place and top lid should be kept closed. Freezers are designed to maintain an ideal cabinet temperature of -4° to 0°F (-20° to -18°C), approximately 2 hours of operation are required to reach this temperature.

THERMOMETER

Your new model has a non adjustable hanging thermometer located inside the cabinet, mounted on the coil housing cover (see Figure 11A). This thermometer is maintenance-free and needs no further calibration. If your cabinet has a dial or digital thermometer mounted on the grill, see the “Optional Accessories” section of this manual for additional information.

All adjustable thermometers are pre-calibrated at the factory, to accurately show the cabinet temperature. While in transit, your cabinet will be subjected to more jarring and vibration than at any other time in its life and the thermometer may require some adjustment at start-up. During periods of heavy use, when the cabinet doors are opened repeatedly or remain open for an extended period of time, the temperature inside your cabinet may temporarily exceed the “safe” temperature indicated on the display. This is normal, as warm air outside the cabinet mixes with the cold air inside the cabinet, or if warm product is loaded into the cabinet. If your thermometer continues to show a tem perature above the “safe” zone for your refrigerator or freezer, close the doors and make sure they seal tight. Keep the doors closed for at least 30 minutes and check the display again. If it still indicates high temperature, see “Optional Accessories” section of this manual for additional information.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM AND ADJUSTMENT

All refrigerated storage cabinets are designed for the purpose of holding pre-chilled or frozen product and although they are capable of cooling or freezing small quantities of fresh product, they are not designed to be blast chillers or ice-cream freezers. Do not attempt to chill or freeze bulk quantities of fresh food, ice-cream, or other products in your refrigerated storage unit. Sandwich and Pizza Prep Tables are not intended for overnight product storage in the top opening or pan rail.

CPA EVAPORATOR ASSEMBLY

FIGURE 11: CPA/CRA Components (Front View) IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not attempt to bulk chill or freeze

product in your storage cabinet and do not leave pans with food in your Sandwich top or Pizza Prep rail over night.

All models have an extra large, full length, performance-rated, plasticized fin coil for extended life, with uniquely directed air flow distribution that keeps product at uniformly constant tem peratures. The evaporator coil and temperature control are easily accessible from inside the cabinet (see Figure 11).

All self-contained refrigerators and Pizza Prep Tables are designed and factory set to maintain an average cabinet temper ature of 38° to 40°F (3.3° to 4.4°C). All self-contained freezers are factory set to maintain an average cabinet temperature of -4° to 0°F (-20° to -18°C). If an adjustment is necessary to maintain cabinet temperature within these ranges, locate the temperature control (see Figure 11) and place a screwdriver into the slotted knob on the temperature control. Turn clockwise no more than 1/4 turn for a colder cabinet temperature or counterclockwise for a warmer cabinet temperature. Allow the cabinet to stabilize for at least 30 minutes and recheck the temperature. Further adjust ments out of the factory design temperature range should only be made by a qualified refrigeration mechanic.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Turning a thermostat fully counter-

clockwise turns the refrigeration compressor “off.”

IMPORTANT NOTE: All refrigerators and Pizza Prep

Tables are designed with an automatic, “off-cycle” defrost system which means that defrosting occurs auto matically when the compressor is not operating during an off-cycle. Do not set the thermostat too cold where the cabinet temperature will fall below 35°F (1.7°C) because the evaporator will become blocked by ice since the com pressor off-cycle will be considerably shortened. This will result in loss of product stored within the cabinet and require service to defrost the evaporator and re-adjust the thermostat.

THERMOMETER DEFROST TIMER

DEFROST SYSTEM

(Pizza Prep and Freezer Base Models) All Pizza Prep Tables feature a positive “off-cycle” defrost system, with a timer that automatically initiates and terminates compressor off-cycles, to ensure the evaporator remains frost free, even under heavy usage. All freezer defrost systems feature a timer that initiates defrost cycles with a fail-safe cut-off time of 20 minutes, an automatic limit switch that provides temperature termination of the defrost cycles, and electric heaters for posi tive thawing of the evaporator coil and drain pan, for optimum performance. The defrost timer on all pizza prep and freezer base models is located in the machine compartment, behind the front grill on CPA & CFA models (see Figure 11). If desired, the start time for a defrost cycle can be adjusted by turning the knob on the defrost timer clockwise until defrost cycle begins (compressor and all fans will terminate). Defrost will begin at this same time every day at 8-hour intervals. For example, if an 8:00 am defrost is desired, at 8:00 am turn the timer knob to initiate defrost. A defrost cycle will start every day at 8:00 am, 4:00 p.m., 12:00 am. If there is a loss of power to the cabinet, the defrost timer will have to be reset to maintain the same defrost cycle times.

• The “POWER/DOWN” button is used to turn the unit on/off or for decreasing values. • Press the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to put into manual defrost.

NOTE: The electronic control has 2 or 3 probes. There is

the regulation probe in the return air stream, there is an evaporator probe located in the evaporator coil, and if the unit has fascia heaters, there will be an ambient probe.

INITIAL SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

1. Cabinet is plugged in.

a. The display will illuminate with the current cabinet temperature.

b. The compressor icon, fan icon, and the aux heater icon may flash for a period of time, indicating normal delayed start-up.

c. After the start-up delay, the compressor and evaporator fan(s) will start if the control is calling for cooling.

2. The control will cycle the compressor on and off determined by the SET-POINT and DIFFERENTIAL.

a. The SET-POINT is the preprogrammed temperature which shuts off the compressor.

b. The DIFFERENTIAL is the preprogrammed temperature that is added to the SET POINT temperature that will start the compressor.

EXAMPLE: Set-Point 36°F and the differential is 4°F the com pressor will cycle off at 36°F and back on at 40°F.

3. The control may be preprogrammed to initiate a defrost by time interval.

a. During defrost, the defrost icon will appear in the display and the compressor will turn off until a preprogrammed temperature or time is reached. During this time for freez ers only, the evaporator fan(s) will also turn off and the defrost heater will be energized.

b. After a preprogrammed evaporator temperature has been reached, there may be a short delay for both the compres sor and evaporator fan(s) to restart.

c. After the defrost cycle is completed, the control will resume normal operation.

HOW TO CALIBRATE THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL

The controller temperature display can be calibrated if required. Before attempting to calibrate the temperature display, check the display by placing a pre-calibrated temperature sensing device in the center of the refrigerated compartment and keep the doors closed for at least 15 minutes.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO WORK ON OR CLEAN EQUIPMENT. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE ANY COVERS OR PARTS YOURSELF, AS THIS CAN EXPOSE DANGEROUS, HIGH VOLTAGE WIRING. SERVICE SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN.

ALWAYS ROUTE POWER CORDS AWAY FROM AREAS WHERE THEY CAN BE WALKED ON OR DAMAGED BY OTHER EQUIPMENT. YOUR APPLIANCE IS EQUIPPED WITH A POLARIZED, GROUNDED POWER PLUG. NEVER ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE GROUND POST OR USE A NON-POLARIZED ADAPTER, WITHOUT PROPERLY GROUNDING THE EQUIPMENT.

CONDENSER FINS ARE MADE FROM THIN METAL AND HAVE SHARP EDGES. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES AND USE CAUTION WHEN WORKING ON OR AROUND THE CONDENSING UNIT TO PREVENT CUTS AND AVOID DAMAGING FINS, TUBING AND OTHER COMPONENTS.

KEEP ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND CONTROLS DRY. DO NOT SPRAY WITH WATER! FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD AND VOID FACTORY WARRANTY.

PERIODIC CLEANING PROCEDURE

It is always best to clean your refrigerator or freezer when the product load in your cabinet is as its lowest level. To clean the interior or exterior cabinet surfaces, follow these procedures: 1. Disconnect your cabinet from its power supply and remove all product from inside.

2. Open all doors and allow the cabinet to reach room temperature. Remove all accessories (shelves, clips, pans, etc.) from inside and wash them with a baking soda and warm water solution, wipe thoroughly with clean water. Dry all accessories completely with a soft clean cloth.

3. Once the cabinet has reached room temperature, wash the inside and outside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda. Pay particular attention to the face of the cabinet, as any residue or debris can impair the door seal.

For slightly more difficult cleanups, ammonia or vinegar in warm water can be used. Wipe down thoroughly with a damp cloth or sponge that has been soaked in clean water and wrung out thoroughly, and dry with a clean, soft cloth.

Carefully wash all of the vinyl door gaskets with clean water, dry them and check for any damage, which may affect the seal. Failure to dry all surfaces completely may cause water stains or streaking on the aluminum or stain less steel finish.

4. Return all accessories to their original locations, reconnect the power. Wait at least 1 hour before reloading product.

CLEANING PRECAUTIONS

NEVER USE HARSH DETERGENTS, ABRASIVE CLEANERS, OR CHEMICALS CONTAINING HALOGENS (CHLORINE, FLUORINE, IODINE, ETC.) WHEN CLEANING YOUR UNIT. CONCENTRATED CHEMICALS CAN CAUSE DISCOLORING, ALWAYS WIPE THEM OFF IMMEDIATELY IF CONTACT OCCURS. SEE “CLEANING OF STAINLESS STEEL” FOR MORE INFORMATION. AVOID SPLASHING THE CABINET WITH WATER AND CHEMICALS WHEN MOPPING FLOORS OR CLEANING OTHER EQUIPMENT AROUND IT.

GENERAL PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

The most important thing you can do to maintain any refrigera tor or freezer and extend its life, is to keep the condenser clean. Performance of the air-cooled condensing unit, located on the side of the cabinet, depends exclusively upon the amount of air passing through the condenser fins. Your refrigerator or freezer will run more efficiently, consume less energy, and provide a maximum of trouble-free service throughout its lifetime if the condenser coil is kept clean and an adequate supply of clean, cool air is provided at all times. Periodically (at least once a month) it is important to inspect the condenser coil for any debris or blockage that may have accumulated.

If the condenser coil is dirty or dusty, disconnect the cabinet power supply and use a stiff brush to wipe away any dirt and debris from the condenser fins. Using a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment may aid in this process. After cleaning, restore electrical service to your cabinet.

IMPORTANT!

AFTER-MARKET CONDENSER FILTERS ARE NOT PERMITTED BECAUSE THEY HINDER AIRFLOW. FAILURE TO KEEP THE CONDENSER CLEAN AND FREE FROM OBSTRUCTIONS WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE COMPRESSOR LOAD, REDUCING THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR UNIT. THIS CAN RESULT IN PREMATURE FAILURE AND WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

CARE AND CLEANING OF STAINLESS STEEL*

*Some information and graphics for this section were obtained from “Stainless Steel Equipment Care and Cleaning” brochure, published by the North American Association of Food Equipment Manufacturers (NAFEM).

Contrary to popular beliefs, stainless steel can rust, if not prop erly cared for and maintained (That’s why it’s called stain-LESS steel, not stain-PROOF steel.) All steel is primarily made of iron. Stainless steels contain other metals, such as chromi um and nickel, that provide an invisible film on the surface of the steel that acts as a shield against corrosion. As long as this invisible layer is intact and not broken or contaminated, the metal will retain its cor rosion protection and remain stain-less.

There are 3 basic things that can break down the protective layer on your stainless steel, which must be avoided:

1. MECHANICAL ABRASION is caused by things that scratch the surface of the metal. Only use soft cloths or plastic scouring pads to clean and always scrub in the same directions as the metal grain.

DO NOT USE: abrasive

cleaners, chemicals with chlorides or muriatic acid to clean your equipment.

3. HARD WATER causes spots and stains on stainless steel surfaces, particularly when it is heated. Find out the hard ness of your water and treat it properly, if needed. Use a water filter and softeners if you have hard water. Club soda can be used to remove streaks or spots. DO NOT USE: hot or hard water to clean stainless steel.

DO NOT USE: abrasive cleaners, steel pads, wire brushes, scrapers or knives to clean your equipment.

2. CHLORIDES are found in water, salt, food and worst of all, many cleaners. Only use chloride-free, alkaline based, non-abrasive cleaners. Always wipe thoroughly with cool, clean water and dry with a soft towel. A solu tion of 1 tablespoon baking soda mixed with 1 pint water can be used to remove tough stains. CLEAN YOUR STAINLESS STEEL REGULARLY using the proper tools and cleaners. After cleaning, always wipe, wipe, wipe thoroughly with cool, clean, clear water. CHECK ALL OF YOUR EQUIPMENT PERIODICALLY. If you see any signs of rust, clean the area immediately, with a plastic scrubbing pad. If surface rust is removed promptly, permanent corrosion, pits and cracks may be avoided. Special stainless steel polishes, that can help restore the protective coating on your equipment, are available from a variety of retailers.

IMPORTANT: If these recommendations are not followed,

the protective film on your stainless steel can break down and your equipment may begin the long walk down the dark road of corrosion.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

Continental offers a variety of accessories for your unit.

DRAWERS: REMOVAL AND ADJUSTMENTS

To remove the drawers from the cabinet, slide each drawer out until it stops. Unhook the stop clip at the front of the left and right-hand drawer slide (see Figure 12) by pushing the clip forward and pressing down on the top back edge as shown. Lift the drawer slightly as you pull it the rest of the way out. The center member, with the wheels attached, will remain in the cabinet. To remove a drawer center member for cleaning or maintenance, pull it out and push up on the release lever at the back, as shown. To install a drawer, identify the correct parts and orient the center members so the plastic clips are in the front and at the top. Insert one of the center members into the front of the cor rect cabinet member (which is permanently attached to the inside of the cabinet) and slide it in, until it stops. Push up on the release lever (located toward the rear and top of the center member) to allow the center member roll the rest of the way into the cabinet member, in the “drawer closed” position. Repeat for the opposite side center member. Pull each center member out a few inches, press down on the rear of each stop clip, and pull forward so the hook on the front of the clip rotates up, into the “unlocked” position. Lift the drawer body into place, resting the drawer members (the channels welded to the sides of the drawers) on the front wheels of the center member, and slide the drawer into the cabinet. Once the drawer goes in all the way and slides smoothly, open it enough to access the stop clips. Lift the back of each clip and push in at the front, so the hook portion snaps into the “locked” position. The drawers are now secured, so they cannot accidentally be lifted out of the cabinet. Check that the drawer is properly aligned, rolls smoothly and the drawer gasket seals firmly. If the drawer fronts need adjustment (once all drawers are installed and closed), loosen the five screws that hold the drawer front to the drawer body. Move the drawer front into position desired and re-tighten all screws.

INSTALLING DRAWER CAGE

To convert your cabinet from doors to drawers, you will need a drill with a 1/8” bit, a Phillips bit (or a Phillips-Head screwdriver (or drill/driver with Phillips bit), and a rubber mallet. Take the door off the section you want to convert, by following instruc tions in the “Removal of Doors” section of this manual. Take the drawers out of the mounting cage, by following instructions in the “Removal of Drawers” section of this manual. Position the drawer mounting cage in front of the cabinet open ing as shown (see Figure 13). Lift the cage above the trim along the bottom of the opening, so it is aligned to go straight into the cabinet. Carefully slide the drawer cage into the unit opening. It is a snug fit and some pressure may be need to be applied at the corners, to clear the breaker around the opening. A rubber mallet can be used to gently tap on the ends of the drawer cage cross mullion, to force the fasteners past the side breakers. The straighter the cage is pushed in, the easier it will be to install. When the cage is in as far as it will go, the notches at the front of the cage should surround the breaker corners at the bottom. The face of the drawer cross mullion should be relatively flush with the front face of the cabinet, to provide an even surface for the drawer gaskets to seal properly around the openings. The cage should sit relatively flat on the floor and against the back wall step inside the cabinet.


17

REFRIGERATED BASES & PIZZA PREP TABLES With the cage properly in place, use the holes along the front sides of the cage assembly as a template to drill (6) 1/8” pilot holes through side breakers and the metal underneath. Drive a sheet metal screw into each of the front mounting holes, secur ing the front of the cage to the inside of the opening, and tighten them snugly, without stripping the screws or the pilot holes. To re-install the drawers into the cabinet, follow the instructions in the “Removal of Drawers” section of this manual.

INSTALLING OVERSHELF OR DOUBLE OVERSHELF

IMPORTANT NOTE: Installing an overshelf is a two-per-

son job. Due to the weight, size and height of the shelf, do not attempt to mount it alone, as this can cause injury.

To mount an overshelf to your cabinet, a Phillips-head screw driver (or a screw gun with Phillips bit) is required. Before starting to assemble the overshelf, identify the following parts provided: 1 / 4 -20 screws, 10-32 screws, uprights, top shelf, and bottom shelf (for double overshelves only). If applicable, deter mine the height you want the bottom shelf to be located.

IMPORTANT NOTE: There are three pairs of holes provid-

ed in the uprights so the bottom shelf can be installed at a height of 19”, 21”, or 23” above the top of the cabinet. On double overshelves, this height will also determine the distance between the bottom shelf and the top shelf (13”, 15”, or 17”).

From the back of your cabinet, locate the two holes with thread ed inserts at each end of the Cabinet. (see Figure 14) Drive a of the screw head is about 1 / 8 procedure for the other upright. 1 / 4 20 screw into each of the (4) threaded inserts, until the bottom ” away from the threaded insert. Position the uprights at the back of the cabinet. Noting that there are two keyhole slots on one face of each upright, locate the keyholes at the bottom, facing the screws you just installed in the cabinet. Lift the upright and place the large portion of the keyhole slots over the screw heads and then lower it on to the screws. Insert a Phillips screwdriver through the clearance holes, on the opposite side of the keyhole slots (in the rear of the uprights). Tighten the screws just until the upright is snug against the unit, but leave a little play for alignment. Repeat this To install a double overshelf (for single overshelf, skip to the next paragraph) locate the bottom shelf, which has a large hole in each rear corner. With one person holding each end of the shelf, lift it above the top of the uprights and align it so the large holes in the rear of the shelf fit over the uprights. Carefully slide the shelf down, until the small holes on back of the shelf line up with the correct holes in the uprights, depending on the shelf height desired. Attach the shelf to the uprights, using two 10-32 screws on each end. Drive the screws until snug, but do not tighten them completely. With one person supporting each end of the top shelf, lift it into position above the uprights and lower it down onto them. Secure the shelf, using two 10-32 screws on each end, driving them snugly but not tightly. Check the alignment of the shelves and tighten all the screws. Double check that the shelves and uprights are secured rigidly.

Disconnect cabinet power by unplugging cord from electrical supply. Remove back and/or side panel to gain access to the machine compartment (see Figure 15). Loosen (2) screws on bottom of cabinet, towards front of machine compartment. Position discharge duct under cabinet as shown and insert tab into back edge of cutout on bottom of cabinet. Lift front of the duct, so keyhole goes over screws in cabinet and duct is flat against bottom of cabinet. Slide duct towards back of cabinet and tighten screws. Position fan assembly as shown and place into notch at rear of compressor compartment base. Secure with (2) screws provided. Plug fan power cord into a standard 115 volt wall outlet or into the receptacle in the cabinet control box labeled “vaporizer”, located at the front of the machine compart ment. Reconnect power to the cabinet.

ANY RESTRICTIONS TO THE AIR FLOW THROUGH THE FRONT GRILL OR UNDER THE CABINET CAN DAMAGE THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM AND WILL VOID ALL

WARRANTIES.

MOUNTING CASTER SUPPORT PLATES

If the standard stem casters on a cabinet are not properly main tained and tightened, or if the unit is excessively overloaded and moved around, the threaded inserts in the bottom of the cabinet can become stripped, twisted or collapsed. If this occurs and the stem casters cannot be mounted securely, rigid caster sup port plates can be fitted to provide the strength needed to safely use your cabinet. Each caster support plate assembly is made of heavy gauge galvanized steel, with (2) casters attached for maximum rigidity. The plate has holes that allow you to fasten the plate assembly to the bottom of the cabinet with sheet metal screws and bolts. Contact the factory to obtain the correct parts for your model.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Always wear proper work gloves and

use appropriate safety equipment. You may CAREFULLY lay the cabinet on it’s back, but only FOR A BRIEF PERIOD

OF TIME. Caution must be taken to ensure you DO NOT DAMAGE the louvered back panel, refrigeration system

components, or copper tubing located behind the panel. The cabinet must be properly blocked, to allow room to get your hands in to lift without damaging the cabinet or crushing the vents on the back panel. DO NOT PLUG-IN

OR OPERATE THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM FOR AT LEAST THREE (3) HOURS AFTER RETURNING THE UNIT TO AN UPRIGHT POSITION, AS THIS CAN DAMAGE THE COMPRESSOR.


19

REFRIGERATED BASES & PIZZA PREP TABLES To install caster support plate assemblies, you will need a 3/4” open end wrench (or a large adjustable wrench), a drill with a 1/8” bit and a Phillips bit (or a Phillips-Head screwdriver) plus work gloves. A 1/2-13 thread tap is also recommended, to repair any damage to the threaded inserts in the cabinet. Unload all product and carefully lay the cabinet on its back. Remove the old stem casters by unscrewing them from the cabinet. If a caster or threaded insert has been stripped or cross-threaded, it may be necessary to use a wrench to loosen the caster.

Hold one of the support plate assemblies under the cabinet as shown (see Figure 16). Position it so the slotted holes at the end of the plate line up with the threaded inserts in the bottom of the cabinet (where the stem casters were attached). Attach the plate assembly to the cabinet by putting a 1/2” x 1-3/4” long bolts and flat washer through the slot in the support plate and screwing into each of the threaded inserts in the bottom of the cabinet. Snug the bolts down, but do not tighten them completely. If one of the threaded inserts is stripped or damaged, a thread tap

Check that both plates are secure and that the casters turn and swivel freely. Carefully lift the cabinet upright and double check that the caster support plates are secure and the cabinet is stable. Wait at least 3 hours before turning the refrigeration system back on, and at least another 30 minutes for the cabinet to come down to temperature and stabilize, before reloading with product.

INSTALLING ELECTRIC CONDENSATE HEATER

The condensate heater has a thermal limit switch and power cord attached. Remove the screws for the rear access panel from the cabinet and set aside. Place the condensate heater in the drain pan as shown in Figure 17. Position the end of the plastic drain tube in the pan. Make sure tubing isn’t kinked, is secure and doesn’t touch the heater. Plug the heater power cord into the receptacle labeled “vaporizer”. Secure excess cord with a wire tie, so it doesn’t fall into the pan or under the cabinet. Reattach the access panel to the back of the cabinet. IMPORTANT NOTE: It is extremely important to ensure

the condensate heater is plugged into the receptacle labeled “vaporizer” and that the condensing unit is plugged into the receptacle labeled “condensing unit.”

REFRIGERATED BASES & PIZZA PREP TABLES Celsius (°C). Blue (safe) and red (caution) color bands provide a quick, visual indication of the temperature inside your refrigera tor or freezer. The thermometer is pre-calibrated at the factory, to accurately show the cabinet temperature.

To check the accuracy of your thermometer, place a pre-cali brated temperature sensing device in the center of the refrig erated compartment and keep the door closed for at least 10 minutes. The thermometer should read the same temperature as the sensing device, within +/-2°F (+/- 1°C). If it does not, use a small straight-blade screwdriver to care fully pry the clear lens cover from the thermometer body as shown (see Photo A).

Use a small straight-blade screw driver and place on center slotted hub of thermometer. Carefully hold the needle and turn the center screw clockwise to lower and counterclock wise to increase the desired tem perature, as shown (see Photo B). Replace the lens cover and recheck the calibration.

DIGITAL THERMOMETER AND CALIBRATION

Your NSF-approved digital thermometer has a remote sensing bulb, with an FDA-approved coating, located in the refrigerated compartment on the left-hand wall. The unit features a large, easy to read, LED display that shows the internal cabinet tem perature. To check the calibration of your thermometer, place a pre calibrated temperature sensing device in the center of the refrig erated compartment and keep the door closed for at least 15 minutes. The digital thermometer display should read the same temperature as the sensing device within +/-2°F (+/- 1°C). If it does not, press the right, center section of the front display (see Photo) twice. After the first press, the letters “CAL” will appear on the screen (to show the unit is in calibration mode). After the second press, the number of degrees (-25 to 25) that the display offset is set for will appear. Once you see this, press on the lower left corner of the front face to decrease the tem perature displayed, or press on the upper left section to increase the temperature displayed.

Press here to increase temp.

Press here to decrease temp.

Press here for calibration mode For example, if the sensing device in the cabinet reads 38° and the thermometer display reads 40°, press on the lower left cor ner twice so that “-2” appears on the display. After adjusting the offset, press on the right center of the display again to exit cali bration mode. Wait 10 to 15 seconds for the cabinet temperature to be displayed and recheck the calibration.

NOTE: The buttons need to be pressed without delay

between actions. Contact the factory with any questions.

INSTALLING PAN SLIDE CAGE

Place cage in door opening, about 3/4 of the way in. Mount side bracket(s) in existing holes on interior side(s) or step (see Figure 18). Mount center bracket in existing holes, on inside of center mullion, when present (see Figure 18A). After brackets are installed securely, push cage the rest of the way in. Install 4 screws in front of cage (see Figure 18B). Install angle slide in desired mounting slots (see Figure 18C).

REMOTE SET-UP AND INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

All remote refrigerators and freezers are shipped with an expan sion valve, thermostat and defrost timer (freezer only), installed from the factory. The installer is responsible for connecting all refrigerant lines, liquid line drier, sight glass, solenoid, head pressure control, hi/low pressure safety, crankcase heater, con densing unit and any other accessories as well as wiring. The evaporator section has been factory leak checked with helium, however; due to vibration in transit, the entire system must be thoroughly leak checked after installation and prior to start-up. The final leak inspection of the entire completed refrigeration system and all of its components as well as start-up and the operation of the refrigeration system is the sole responsibility of the installer.

The CFC-Free refrigerant used in standard remote and self contained models is R-134a for refrigerators and R-404A for freezers. All compressors and systems designed for these refrigerants utilize polyolester oil as their main lubricant, which absorbs moisture from the ambient surroundings extremely fast and in much greater quantity than conventional mineral oils. Since moisture levels greater than 100 PPM will result in system corrosion and ultimate failure, it is imperative that the compres sor, components and entire system be kept sealed.

1. All refrigerant lines and components must be clean, free of burrs and purged with nitrogen prior to and during brazing or soldering connections. Nitrogen purging during braz ing or soldering will eliminate carbon or foreign matter contamination. Any system restrictions or contamination is the responsibility of the installer.

2. Condensing unit or compressor shall not be left open to the atmosphere for more than five (5) minutes.

3. No refrigeration component, tubing or fitting shall be left open to the atmosphere for more than ½ hour without being soldered, capped or plugged.

4. Each completed refrigeration system shall be purged with 150psi of dry nitrogen for at least six (6) seconds, then pressurized with at least 165psi of nitrogen for pressure check (making sure to energize any solenoid valves to assure access). Leak-check all joints, flare fittings and valves and make sure there is no pressure drop within the system.

5. System evacuation is of the utmost importance with NON CFC refrigerant systems. System must be evacuated to a minimum of 200 microns. In addition, a vacuum decay test is strongly recommended to assure there is not a large pressure differential between the system and vacuum pump. System must be evacuated from both high and low sides of the system using heavy duty vacuum hoses.

22


REFRIGERATED BASES & PIZZA PREP TABLES 6. Each system should be charged with the refrigerant type as specified on the cabinet data tag. This refrigerant type should match the type listed on the condensing unit being used. The refrigerant charge should be held to the mini mum required for the satisfactory pull down and opera tion. For an accurate indication of refrigerant charge, the sight glass will show a full column of liquid.

7. The superheat reading taken 6” from the compressor suc tion valve should be 30° +/- 5°. Expansion valve adjust ment may be necessary to achieve this superheat. 8. Installation of the electric condensate heater is the responsibility of the installer (see “Installing Electric Condensate Heater” under “Optional Accessories”).

CAUTION: EXTREME CARE MUST BE USED WHEN ACCESSING THE SYSTEM DURING INSTALLATION. DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF REMOTE REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS AND THE POTENTIAL FOR IMPROPER INSTALLATION, ANY RESTRICTIONS, LEAKS, FAILED OR DAMAGED COMPONENTS CAUSED BY CONTAMINANTS ARE NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF CONTINENTAL REFRIGERATOR.

FISH FILE BASE MODELS

Fish File models are provided with drawers specially designed for the storage of fresh fish, or similar product, packed in crushed ice. Each drawer has a removable pan, with a drain tube at the back corner (see Figure 18). Water from melting ice in the pan, along with moisture from the product, drains out of the storage pan through the tube, along a trough on the interior cabinet wall, down to the sloped interior bottom, and out of the cabinet through a 1” drain tube.

INSTALLATION AND LOCATION

In addition to normal considerations (see Installation and Location), Fish File units should be installed directly over a building floor drain, to rapidly dispose of water from melted ice that drains out of the cabinet. It is also highly recommended that your Fish File is located near a water source that can be used to thoroughly wash down your cabinet regularly.

NOTE: If a building floor drain is not immediately avail-

able, a waste line, with consistent downward slope, must be supplied and connected to the 1” NPS drain tube located under the cabinet. An electric condensate vapor izer cannot be used to dispose of water from melted ice, as the liquid waste contains food residue that can cause unpleasant odors and potentially unsanitary conditions.
