SAFETY INFORMATION

True Food Service Equipment, Inc.

This freezer must be properly installed and

located in accordance with the Installation

Instructions before it is used.

Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang

on the shelves in the freezer. They could dam-

age the freezer and seriously injure themselves.

Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer

compartment when hands are damp or wet.

Skin may stick to these extremely cold surfaces.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any

other appliance.

Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas;

clearances between the doors and between the

doors and cabinet are necessarily small; be

careful closing doors when children are in the

area.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that any

servicing be preformed by a qualified

individual.

Unplug the freezer before cleaning and making

repairs.

Setting temperature controls to the 0 position

does not remove power to the light circuit,

perimeter heaters, or evaporator fans.

WARNING!

Use this appliance for its intended purpose as described in this Owner Manual.

How to Maintain Your Freezer

Successful Operation

You have selected one of the finest commercial freezer units made. It is

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

SAFETY INFORMATION

PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR

DANGER!

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD! TRUE will not warranty any freezer that has been

connected to an extension cord.

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems

of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are

still dangerous… even if they will sit for “just a few

days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator,

please follow the instructions below to help

prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator

or Freezer:

Take off the doors.

Leave the shelves in place so that children may

not easily climb inside.

Refrigerant Disposal

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system

that uses “Ozone Depleting ” chemicals. If you are

throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the

refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a

qualified service technician. If you intentionally

release any refrigerants you can be subject to

fines and imprisonment under provisions of the

environmental regulations.

............ www.truemfg.com ............

True Food Service Equipment, Inc.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with

a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a

standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to

minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard

from this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a

qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is

properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it is your

personal responsibility and obligation to have it

replaced with the properly grounded 3-prong wall

outlet.

The freezer should always be plugged into it’s own

individual electrical circuit, which has a voltage

rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also

prevents overloading building wiring circuits which

could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power

cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out

from the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all power cords that

have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not

use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage

along its length or at either end.

When removing the freezer away from the wall, be

careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

WARNING!

The incoming power source to the cabinet

including any adapters used must have the adequate

power available and must be properly grounded.

USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS

NEVER USE AN ADAPTER PLUG! Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we

strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug.

SAFETY INFORMATION

North America Use Only!

NEMA plugs

TRUE uses these types of plugs.

If you do not have the right outlet

have a certified electrician install

the correct power source.

INSTALLATION OF LEGS AND CASTORS

Important Safeguard for installation of leg/castor (Images 1-5 demonstrate procedure)

Step 3

Securing Castors and Legs

To obtain maximum strength and stability of the

unit, it is important that you make sure each castor

is secure. Legs are hand-tightened securely against

the lower rail assembly. The bearing race on the

castor of the top edge of the leg must make firm

contact with the rail.

Unit leveling

Four leveling shims have been provided for level-

ing castored units positioned on uneven floors.

Shims must be positioned between rail end and

bearing race.

A. Turn the bearing race counter-clockwise until

the cabinet is level. Level front to back and side to

side. (diagonally)

B. Install the desired number of shims, making sure

the slot of the shim is in contact with the threaded

stem of the castor.

C. If more than one shim is used, turn the slot at a

90° angle so they are not in line.

D. Turn the bearing race clockwise to tighten and

secure the castor by tightening the anchoring bolt

with a 3/4 inch open-end wrench or the tool

provided.

CAUTION

To avoid damage to lower rail assembly,

slowly raise unit to upright position.

Note: Open holes located on the cross members of the

frame rail should be plugged before unit is in use.

Step 4

A. Set unit in its final location. Be sure there is ade-

quate ventilation in your room. Under extreme heat

conditions, (100°F+, 38°C+), you may want to install

an exhaust fan.

Warning

Warranty is void if ventilation is insufficient.

B. Proper leveling of your True cooler is critical to

operating success (for non-mobile models). Effective

condensate removal and door operation will be

effected by leveling.

C. The cooler should be leveled front to back and

side to side with a level.

D. Ensure that the drain hose or hoses are posi-

tioned in the pan.

E. Free plug and cord from inside the lower rear of

the cooler (do not plug in).

F. The unit should be placed close enough to the

electrical supply so that extension cords are never

used.

Warning

Compressor warranties are void if the unit is more

than 7 ft. (2.1m) from plug-in connection.
