Pan storage and access
Each drawer accepts one half-size and one third-size pan. In each upper drawer, the front half-size and third-size pans can be up to 6 inches deep, with one quarter-size and one sixth-size pan up to 4 inches deep at the rear. Lower drawers accept pans up to 6 inches deep. The HS-5432 divider bar is recommended for the split-pan arrangement. Confirm pan inclusion, divider bars and the required pan layout before ordering.
The separate door compartment includes one adjustable shelf for containers that do not need a drawer layout. Specify the required door-and-drawer location when ordering.
Installation and electrical planning
Install indoors on a firm, level floor, away from ovens, grills and other high-heat equipment. Keep the factory rear bumper in place and allow at least 1.5 inches above the cabinet for ventilation. Check the delivery route, open-door and drawer clearances, and the ordered caster configuration before installation.
Provide an independent, properly grounded 115V circuit with a matching NEMA 5-15P receptacle. Have a qualified installer check the delivered-unit nameplate and installation manual. Do not use an extension cord. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle. R290 is flammable; follow the manual’s room-size and placement requirements and keep ignition sources away.
Cleaning and maintenance
Move food into suitable refrigerated storage, turn the unit off and unplug it before cleaning. Wipe stainless steel and gaskets with a soft cloth and neutral cleaner, then dry the surfaces. Avoid abrasive pads, acids and chlorine bleach. Inspect the condenser twice a year and clean it with a brush or vacuum when needed. Keep drainage and airflow paths clear, and use qualified technicians for refrigeration service.
