Startup
Initial Startup
To start up the unit, complete the following steps:
1. Connect the AC main power cord.
2. Insert the silver colored key in the switch and turn to the
Power On position.
3. Allow the unit to reach operating temperature before
loading it with any product. To stabilize the temperature
profile, a 24-hour waiting period is recommended.
4. If you desire to enable the power failure alarm, turn the
three position key switch one turn further clockwise to
the All Alarm On position.
5. If you have a remote alarm, hook it up at this point (refer
to section Remote Alarm).
6. If desired, lock the cabinet door using the silver colored
key. Place duplicate key copies in a safe place.
All controls should now be fully operational, the alarm active (if
enabled), and all visual indicators active.
Product Loading and
Unloading Guidelines
When loading your unit, take care to observe the following
guidelines:
•
Distribute the load as evenly as possible. Temperature
uniformity depends on air circulation, which could be
impeded if the internal storage components are overfilled,
particularly at the top of the cabinet.
•
For critical applications, be sure that the alarm systems
are working and active before you load any product.
•
Ensure clearance between the top of the cargo and the
bottom of the internal storage components. Lack of
clearance may affect unit performance or impede
operation of the storage component.
