CAUTION!
LOCATION:
Appliance is for indoor use only. Never vent into a laun-
dry closet or similar room which traps warm air. Unit
must vent to an adjacent interior ventilated space close
to the ceiling. Exhaust air must not be obstructed in any
way.
TEMPERATURES:
Select a suitable area, sized to model’s cooling capacity,
where ambient temperature will not exceed the desired
storage temperature by more than 25ºF (14ºC). The
temperature of the air where the unit vents its warm air
must be at least 65ºF and never exceed 80ºF with 70%
R.H. Lower set temperature from default 57ºF (14ºC)
only if ambient condition allows.
Set temperature range: 52ºF - 64ºF (11ºC - 18ºC)
INSULATION:
Install unit where ALL surfaces (walls, floor and ceiling)
are insulated to R-20 and protected by vapor barrier on
both sides. Uninsulated concrete floors will radiate heat
and humidity during summer months, forcing the unit to
work inefficiently. All floors must be INSULATED! Use an
insulated door with weather seal.
POWER:
Outlet (on cool side) power must be a dedicated separate-
ly fused grounded 15-Amp 115 Volt line within reach of
supplied power cord (Europe; 10-Amp 220 Volt). Line
must not be shared. Do not use extension cords.
Electronics must be protected against sudden power
surges. Use a quality surge protector.
SPECIAL NOTE:
This unit is constructed for installation in walls up to 6
1/2” inches thick. If you install it in a thicker wall you will
have to cut out an area around the air vents on the cool
side in order to keep cool airflow unobstructed. Order
longer screws at www.koolrproducts.com.
