OWNER’S MANUAL
I. RECEIPT & SUPPORT INSTALLATION:
You should carefully inspect your Kairak unit for damage
during delivery. If damage is detected, you should save all
the crating materials and make note on the carrier’s Bill
Of Lading describing this. A freight claim should be filed
immediately.
After uncrating the unit, select a level location for final
placement. Install the legs or casters as shown below.
Compacts Supports (“Stem” type legs & casters)
Compact Undercounter & Prep-Table
KUH Series/KUL Series/KUP Series/KUS Series
Compact Cabinets (electromechanical)
The temperature is set at the factory but local conditions may
necessitate slight adjustment. The temperature control is
located in the front of the evaporator housing. To adjust, turn
the adjustment screw with a screw driver a small amount at a
time; turning counterclockwise lowers the temperature. An
“OFF” position is fully counterclockwise and interrupts power
to the compressor and condenser fan only, not the entire
refrigerator.
II. Defrost Cycles:
All Compacts, defrost cycles will occur every 6 hours.
III. GENERAL CARE:
WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CLEAN
ING ANY PARTS OF THE UNIT.
Louvers must be free of any obstruction which could
prevent proper air-flow.
All Kairak equipment should be cleaned only with warm water, mild soap
and a soft cloth. Apply with a dampened cloth and wipe in the direction of
the metal grain.
Most units are supplied with a cord and plug,
which can simply be plugged into a dedicated
appropriately sized outlet. For those requiring
hard-wiring directly to the power supply, this should
be done by only a qualified electrician.
Avoid the use of strong detergents and gritty, abrasive cleaners as they
may tend to mar and scratch the surface. Do not use cleansers containing
chlorine, this may promote metal corrosion.
Compact Cabinets
Are fully operational and no action is required to start.
Please note, most compacts are equipped with a
electromechanical control.
P/N 375-60293-00 (rev. 03-13)
Care should also be taken to avoid splashing the unit with water, containing
chlorinated cleansers, when mopping the floor around the unit.
For stubborn odor spills, use baking soda and water (mixed to a 1 TBSP
baking soda to 1 pint water ratio).
IV. ADJUSTING THE SHELVES:
Shelves and shelf clips are shipped with the unit. For each shelf, insert four
(4) shelf clips into the pilaster slots at the same height. The shelf clips have a
small projection on top which holds the shelf in position and prevents it from
slipping forward. After installing shelf clips on pilasters, place shelves on clips.
V. CLEANING THE CONDENSER :
WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING ANY PARTS OF THE UNIT.
Remove rear bottom perforated access panel.
