OPERATION
Initial Start Up
After satisfying the installation requirements, the unit is ready to start. The unit will start when the power cord is connected to the
required power source. If the compressor does not start when the unit is initially plugged in, check to make sure that the
temperature control is not in the ‘off ‘ position. Allow the unit to run a minimum of two hours before loading it with product. When
loading the unit with product, take care not to block the air flow at the back of the storage area as this would affect the performance
of the cabinet.
Temperature Control
The Temperature Control is located inside on the cabinet storage area and is factory set to maintain an average cabinet
temperature of 35 to 40 Deg. F. To obtain colder temperatures turn the Temperature Control stem clockwise and visa versa with a
flat blade screwdriver. Allow the unit a minimum of one hour to respond to a control setting adjustment.
Defrost
Your Silver King unit is an automatic defrost unit. No additional plumbing is required. The frost buildup on the evaporator coil will
clear each time the compressor shuts off and the condensate will drain to the condensate evaporator pan where it will evaporate. It
is important that the unit be level so the condensate can drain properly.
MAINTENANCE
Preventative maintenance is minimal although these few steps are very important to continued operation and maximizing the life of
the appliance.
Cabinet Surfaces
The cabinet interior is aluminum and the exterior is stainless steel. These surfaces should be cleaned periodically with a solution of
warm water and mild soap, rinsed with clean water and wiped dry with a soft cloth. A stainless steel cleaner can also be used.
Should a surface become stained, do not attempt to clean with an abrasive cleaner or scouring pad. Use a soft cleanser and rub
with the grain of the metal to avoid scratching the surface. Do not use chlorinated cleaners.
Pumps
To maintain the operation of the Pumps, they should be disassembled and cleaned inside and out regularly. Please refer to the
cleaning instructions provided with the Pump.
Condenser
Periodically, the accumulated dust on the condenser must be cleaned off. To clean the Condenser simply vacuum it, brush it or
blow compressed air through it. This will need to be done regularly to maintain the compressor warranty!
