Failure to follow these instructions may cause this product to malfunction, which could result in injury or following important safety precautions apply to this product: Use this product only in the way described in the product literature and in this manual.

5 Before using it, verify that this product is suitable for its intended use. Do not modify system components, especially the controller. Use OEM exact replacement equipment or parts. Before use, confirm that the product has not been altered in any way. Your unit must be properly grounded in conformity with national and local electrical codes. Never connect the unit to overloaded power sources. Disconnect the unit from all power sources before cleaning, troubleshooting, or performing other maintenance on the product or its controls. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, protection provided by the equipment may be Scientific Revco Laboratory RefrigeratorsInstallation and Operation 33 UnpackingAt delivery, examine the exterior for physical damage while the carrier s representative is present.

6 If exterior damage is present, carefully unpack and inspect the unit and all accessories for there is no exterior damage, unpack and inspect the equipment within five days of delivery. If you find any damage, keep the packing materials and immediately report the damage to the carrier. Do not return goods without written authorization. When submitting a claim for shipping damage, request that the carrier inspect the shipping container and Installation and OperationThermo Scientific Revco Laboratory Refrigerators4 InstallationDo not exceed the electrical and temperature : Improper operation of the equipment could result in dangerous conditions. To preclude hazard and minimize risk, follow all instructions and operate within design limits noted on the LocationInstall the unit in a level area free from vibration with a minimum of 6" of space on the sides and rear, and 12" at the top are recommended.

7 For undercounter models, a minimum of 1" of space on the sides, top and rear are not position the equipment in direct sunlight or near heating diffusers, radiators, or other sources of heat. The ambient temperature range at the location must be 59 to 90 F (15 to 32 C). WiringCAUTION: Connect the equipment to the correct power source. Incorrect voltage can result in severe damage to the : For personal safety and trouble-free operation, this unit must be properly grounded before it is used. Failure to ground the equipment may cause personal injury or damage to the equipment. Always conform to the National Electrical Code and local codes. Do not connect unit to already overloaded power lines. Always connect the equipment to a dedicated (separate) circuit. Electrical codes require fuse or circuit breaker protection for branch circuit conductors. Use time delay fuses for #12 AWG Refrigerators are equipped with a duplex vapor-proof interior outlet with a maximum of 4 amps per customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to verify the receptacle is properly grounded and meets power requirements specified on the data a two prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the user to have it replaced with a properly grounded three prong : Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

8 Do not use a two-prong adapter wiring schematic is attached to the back of the Scientific Revco Laboratory RefrigeratorsInstallation and Operation LevelingIt is important to make sure the unit is level. Use thin sheets of metal to level units equipped with models come with leveling feet installed, with casters provided in a bag inside the cabinet. The unit must be level. To level undercounter units, rotate the leveling screws, located under the front corners of the unit, until the unit is level. If the floor is seriously out of level, you may need to shim the corners with thin sheets of Door SealTo check the door seal, complete the following steps:1. Open the Insert a strip of paper (a couple of inches wide) between the door gasket and the cabinet flange and close the Slowly pull the paper strip from the outside.

9 You should feel some Repeat this test at 4-inch intervals around the door. If the door does not seal properly, replace the Door seal integrity is critical for Refrigerators and freezers. A loose fitting gasket allows moist air to be drawn into the cabinet, resulting in quicker frost buildup on the evaporator coil, longer running time, poor temperature maintenance, and increased operation Door OperationSolid doors and standard glass doors for models larger than the undercounter model stay open if opened 90 degrees. Door spring tension cannot be the self-closing doors do not work properly, make sure the unit is Adjustable Hinged Glass Doors (Undercounter Models Only)On Undercounter models with hinged glass doors, you can use a regular screwdriver to adjust spring tension and center each door on its frame.

10 The adjustment screws ( torque for tension and sag for door placement) are located on the bottom hinge bracket (shown below in Figure 1).Hinged glass doors can be propped open with metal braces at the bottom hinges. Open the door 90 degrees or until you feel some resistance. Push the door open past the resistance and the metal braces engage. To close the door, push it toward the unit (past the resistance).Installation6 Installation and OperationThermo Scientific Revco Laboratory RefrigeratorsFigure 1.
