Condensate Water Removal
McCall cabinets are equipped with condensate vaporizer 
systems.
Remote units use an electrically operated system.
Most self-contained units use either an energy-free 
automatic type or an electrically-operated type. No drain 
connection is required.
Defrost Systems
GENERAL
Refrigerator coils are kept below the freezing point 
(32
°F). During compressor off time, the evaporator fan
continues to circulate 38
°F refrigerator compartment air
through the evaporator coil. This air circulation raises the 
coil temperature above the freezing point, melting any 
accumulated frost. The run-off water is drained into the 
vaporizer pan and is evaporated.
Freezer coils are defrosted electrically.
NOTE: A freezer’s evaporator fans do not run 
immediately upon start-up or during and immediately 
following the defrost cycles. The fans start when the coil 
reaches a cold temperature. This prevents the fans from 
blowing heated air on the stored products.
DEFROST TIMERS
Undercounter freezer models F-10E, FS-10E, and 
FSC-10E use an adjustable defrost timer which may be 
custom-set to initiate defrost periods. All other models 
use non-adjustable freezer defrost timers, which 
automatically initiate at pre-set intervals and for a 
pre-determined duration.
DEFROST SETTINGS
The defrost timer is factory preset to defrost the 
evaporator coil each day at 2:00 AM, 8:00 AM, 
2:00 PM, and 8:00 PM.
If you wish to change the defrost times, remove the pins 
from the outer dial and re-insert them into the desired 
time slots. (Refer to drawing.)
Defrost Timer
SETTING DEFROST TIME
The defrost timer must be set to real time after the power 
is turned on, or after a power failure.
To set the time:
1. Grasp the knob in the center of the inner dial.
2. Turn it counterclockwise to rotate the outer dial.
3. Line up the current time of day on the outer dial with
the pointer.
! Caution
Leave at least one hole between adjacent pins.
Important
Set the defrost timer to defrost the cabinet during
the lowest usage periods.
