Door access and storage
The FGE configuration combines multi-pane, argon-filled glass with stainless steel door exteriors and recessed, full-length aluminum handles. Its 35.75-inch cabinet depth is shallower than the corresponding FG model.
Arrange shelving around the containers used in your operation. Keep internal air passages clear so the ducted airflow can circulate around stored products. The self-contained refrigeration system includes an accessible top condenser filter and hot-gas condensate evaporation.
Installation and electrical planning
Install indoors on a level, supporting floor and leave working room for door swing and loading on both sides. Keep ventilation and top filter/service access unobstructed. Minimum cabinet clearance is 0 inches at the sides and top; the rear clearance designation is not applicable to this pass-through layout.
Use a properly grounded, independent 115V outlet and the supplied three-prong plug; do not use an extension cord. Have a qualified installer verify the nameplate, circuit and local installation requirements. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle.
R290 is a flammable refrigerant. Provide at least 6.2 m² (67 sq. ft.) of room floor area and do not install this unit in a public corridor or lobby. Follow the installation manual for placement and refrigerant safety requirements. Choose the operating setpoint for the food being stored, rather than treating the controller’s full adjustment range as suitable for every food.
Cleaning and maintenance
Move food to another refrigerator, switch the unit off and unplug it before cleaning. Clean the cabinet and removable door gaskets with suitable mild cleaning products; avoid damaging the stainless steel surfaces or refrigeration tubing. Inspect the air filter at least twice a month and wash it with warm water and neutral cleaner when dirty. Inspect the condenser twice a year; clean it at least annually and sooner as needed. Clean the condenser wick at least annually. Busier or dustier kitchens may need more frequent maintenance. Refrigeration service should be performed by qualified technicians.
