Marvel Industries 5CAF fmar - Manual (Page 4)

Proper installation is the first step to operation.
Receiving Shipment
All units are performance tested and thoroughly inspected prior to shipment. Upon leaving the factory, all units are in
perfect condition. Upon receipt, examine the exterior of the shipment packaging for any signs of rough handling. If the
cabinet is damaged, it should be noted on the delivery slip or bill of lading and signed. A claim must be filed immediately
against the carrier indicating the extent and estimated cost of damage incurred.
Uncrating, Installing Adjustable Foot Levelers & Leveling
Tools Needed : 9/16” Box Wrench or Adjustable Wrench

Wooden Blocks (or equivalent)

4 Adjustable Foot Levelers
WARNING: Never lay your refrigerator or freezer down on either its back, front or sides. This allows compressor oil into
the refrigerant lines which can damage the compressor at start-up. If the unit is laid down, it must be set upright for a
minimum of 12 hours before starting the compressor. Failure to adhere to the above recommendation will void the
warranty.
Uncrating
1. Remove and discard all cardboard crating, packaging material, tape and interior components.
2. Move cabinet as close to final location as possible before removing skid.
3. Remove the shipping skid by tipping the cabinet forward. Remove the shipping bolts with 9/16” box wrench while
the cabinet is held in one direction. Repeat this procedure while the cabinet is held in the opposite direction.
4. Use extreme caution when removing the wooden skid, especially when the last bolt is removed. If not properly
blocked, the skid will fall to the floor.
Installing Adjustable Foot Levelers
Once the uncrating process is complete, make sure the adjustable foot levelers are safely secured on the bottom of the
cabinet for proper support and leveling purposes.
Utilize wooden blocks or equivalent to support the cabinet when placing adjustable foot levelers.

Leveling
Cabinets must be leveled when installed. Failure to level your cabinet may result in doors not sealing, closing properly or
condensate water not draining appropriately.
Locating Your New Undercounter Refrigerator or Freezer
Consider the following when selecting a cabinet location:
1. Clearance - Undercounter refrigerator or freezer cabinets do not require a clearance between the back of the cabinet
and neighboring wall. The front grill is designed to guarantee sufficient air circulation to the condensing unit. However,
it will improve the cabinet's efficiency if there is air flowing through the louvers of the rear grill that conceals the
condensing unit.
2. Floor Load - The floor on which the cabinet will rest must be free of vibration and suitably strong enough to support
the combined weights of the cabinet plus the maximum product load.
3. Ventilation - The air cooled, self-contained refrigeration system requires a sufficient amount of cool, clean air. Avoid
placing the refrigerator or freezer cabinet near heat generating equipment such as ovens, heaters, etc., and out of
direct sunlight. Avoid locating the self-contained refrigerator cabinet in an unheated room, or where the room
temperature may be below 65
°F.
