Specifications

Ingredient rail and food storage

Install the rail dividers, pans, rail cover, cutting-board brackets and cutting board before use. Keep every pan in place while the refrigerator is operating, even when a pan is empty, and close the rail lid when it is not in use. Missing pans can interfere with cooling and cause the evaporator to freeze.

Allow the empty cabinet to run for two hours or three compressor on/off cycles, then check the temperature before loading food. Leave gaps between products and interior surfaces, keep air inlets and outlets clear, and do not overload the cabinet. Use this prep refrigerator for temporary food storage, not chemicals or medical supplies. Do not put warm or hot products into the cabinet; let them cool first.

Installation and electrical supply

Install indoors on a firm, level surface that supports the refrigerator and its contents. Keep at least 2 inches behind the cabinet and at least 10 inches above the rail hood so the lid can open. Retain the rear bumpers and keep ventilation openings unobstructed. Operate in a 45–100°F room, away from direct sunlight. Confirm the delivered height, depth, support package and door swing before fitting the unit into a tight space.

Move the unit upright and do not tilt it more than 45 degrees. Do not lift it by the top or doors, stand or sit on it, or use it to support additional equipment. Have qualified personnel install and service it according to its nameplate, instruction manual and applicable codes.

Connect to an independent, properly grounded three-prong outlet. Do not use an extension cord or adapter or remove the grounding prong. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle. R-290 is flammable: keep ignition sources away, do not puncture refrigerant tubing or use mechanical defrosting tools, and leave refrigerant service to qualified technicians.

Cleaning and maintenance

Unplug the refrigerator and move food to another suitable refrigerator before cleaning. Clean cabinet surfaces and shelves with mild soap, avoid strong detergents, wipe the interior dry and let the unit return to setpoint before restocking. Do not splash, pour or pressure-spray water into the appliance.

Inspect the air filter every two weeks and wash it with warm water and a neutral cleaner when dirty. Keep the condenser clean, following the instruction manual’s procedure with power disconnected. More frequent attention may be needed in dusty or greasy locations.

Optional accessories

For the 27-inch model, choose the HS-5794 rear-mount shelf, HS-5172 single overshelf or HS-5163 double overshelf. Optional caster sets are HS-5036 with 6-inch casters and HS-5037 with 2.25-inch casters, four per set. Accessories are sold separately; changing casters changes the installed height.

Limited warranty

Coverage for the original owner/user includes three years of labor, four years of parts and five years of compressor parts, subject to proper installation, use, maintenance and the written warranty. Register within 30 days of installation. Standard coverage applies in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and U.S. territories; consult Hoshizaki for other locations.
