Installation and ventilation
Install indoors on a level floor that supports the loaded cabinet, away from direct sunlight and heat. The operating environment must stay between 45°F and 100°F. Allow at least 2 inches behind the cabinet and 1.5 inches overhead, keep the factory rear bumpers in place, and leave ventilation openings unobstructed. Check the delivered model’s dimensions, caster configuration and door swing before finalizing the opening.
Use an independent, properly grounded three-prong supply matched to the nameplate; do not use an extension cord or adapter. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle. Installation and refrigeration service require qualified personnel trained to handle R-290 refrigerant.
Loading and daily operation
Before first loading, run the empty cabinet for two hours or three compressor cycles and verify that it has reached the appropriate holding temperature. Space containers apart and away from interior surfaces so cold air can circulate. Support all four corners of each shelf on its clips, avoid overloading, and keep door openings brief. Keep the refrigerator running overnight while food remains inside.
Cleaning and maintenance
Move food to another refrigerator and unplug the cabinet before cleaning. Wash the interior, exterior and shelves with a mild soap solution, wipe dry, then allow the cabinet to cool before reloading. Do not use strong detergents or spray water into the appliance. Inspect filters and the condenser regularly; wash dirty filters with warm water and neutral cleaner, and have accumulated condenser dust removed as needed. Follow the installation manual for maintenance access and safety precautions.
Options and ordering
Alternate caster heights and model-specific overshelves are available separately. Confirm the selected accessory, installed height and ventilation requirements before ordering. The two-door cabinet provides separate access to each storage section. Do not use the refrigerator as an equipment stand or add unsupported loads to its top.
Compare Valiance counter refrigerators
Choose an undercounter cabinet for placement beneath a counter or a worktop model with a raised rear backsplash. Width, storage capacity and caster configuration vary by model. Each refrigerator is sold separately.
