RECEIVING Your unit was built, packaged, and inspected with extreme care. We shipped it to you using carriers we trust with a proven track record of careful handling, good customer service, and on time delivery. Unfortunately, regardless of all of these efforts sometimes accidents happen and occasionally those accidents result in shipping damage. When the carrier picked up the merchandise from us, they assumed responsibility for its condition en route to you. Thus, any claims for shipping damage must be filed with the carrier. Like anybody else, carriers don’t like to pay out on insurance claims, so their claims procedures and requirements are very restrictive. ... -

Page 6: Refrigerator Operation
Refrigerator Operation After the unit is properly installed and power is applied, it will take some time before the system is cooled down to temperature and cycling normally. You should wait 8 hours on the first startup before beginning to add product to the unit. This ensures that the unit is installed and operating properly before being put into service. On subsequent startups (after cleanings, for example), this wait time can be reduced to about 3 hours. After this wait time, the unit should be cycling in the design temperature range. The units are calibrated before leaving the factory, so no adjustment should be necessary. Loading the units will again cause temperature to rise as the warmer product is introduced into ... -
