Appliance Safety Your safety and the safety of others are very important to us. We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. You can be seriously injured or even killed if you don’t follow instructions. Safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, how to reduce the chance of injury, and what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
Installation Instructions Excessive Weight Hazard ! Use two or more people to move and install your appliance. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury. ALLOW APPLIANCE TO SIT UPRIGHT FOR 24 HOURS BEFORE TURNING ON, TO ALLOW THE COMPRESSOR LUBRICANT TO DRAIN. 1. Remove packaging materials. 2. Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the appliance. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Rinse with warm water and dry. 3.
Location Requirements Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from appliances. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion or death. Location: IMPORTANT: Do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator, or other heat source, nor in a location where the temperature will fall below 40°F (5°C). Do not place in direct sunlight. Check the strength of the floor before installing your appliance. It should hold the weight of a fully loaded appliance.
Leveling your appliance (some upright models): Locate the two front leveling legs that may be taped among the packing materials. (In many models these legs are already mounted into the underside of the appliance.) 1. Screw these legs into the front holes on the bottom of the appliance. The back of the appliance rests on two fixed supports. (Built-in models also have rear level legs that can provide more precise leveling). 2. Adjust the front legs just enough to lift the cabinet up off the floor.
Appliance Care Defrosting: Refrigerator models listed in this manual defrost automatically. However, freezer models require manual defrosting. Before defrosting the unit, remove the contents of the freezer, then set the thermostat to OFF (the compressor will stop working). Leave the door open until ice and frost are completely melted. To speed up defrosting, you can place a container of warm water (about 125°F) into the cabinet.
Changing the light bulb (some models only): NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your appliance. Be sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape, base size and wattage. You can purchase bulbs from www.summitappliance.com/support 1. Unplug appliance or disconnect power. 2. Remove the light shield. Most models do not require tools. 3. Replace the light bulb with an appliance bulb of the same wattage. Replacement LED bulbs are available from our parts department. 4. Replace the light shield. 5.
Temperature Selection and Monitoring YOUR APPLIANCE MAY HAVE A MECHANICAL (DIAL) OR DIGITAL THERMOSTAT. DIAL INSTRUCTIONS ARE BELOW. DIGITAL INSTRUCTIONS ARE ON PAGE 10. Manual (dial) thermostat (on some models): Your appliance may be controlled with a thermostat knob located inside or in the rear of the unit, towards the right-hand corner. Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward the higher numbers for colder temperatures.
Temperature Selection & Monitoring, cont’d Note: Details may vary from image. Digital Thermostat (standard on all-refrigerators, ACF48W models, and VT65MLADA models): If you find it necessary to change the temperature setting for your digital thermostat, please refer to the following instructions. How to Adjust the Temperature: To see the SET POINT: The default display for your digital thermostat is the internal cabinet temperature. To view the unit’s set point, push and immediately release the SET key.
Traceable thermometer (PLUS2 models): This digital thermometer simultaneously displays maximum, minimum and current temperatures. The Max/Min feature monitors and stores the highest and lowest readings since the battery was inserted or since the RESET button was last pressed. The temperature sensor, or probe, is enclosed in a glycol-filled bottle that is inserted into the location to be monitored, such as inside a refrigerator or freezer.
Traceable Thermometer/Alarm (MED Models): Alarm style varies by product Every MED unit is equipped with a NIST-calibrated Traceable Thermometer/Alarm that simultaneously displays minimum, maximum, and current interior temperatures and provides a visual and audible signal when the temperature inside the unit falls outside the set temperature range. NOTE ABOUT CALIBRATION: All MED units ship with a two-year certificate of calibration in the alarm/thermometer box that comes inside your unit.
Thermometer/alarm instructions (cont’d): Function of Controls: MODE/RESET Key: Press ONCE to reset Max/Min temperature record. When the unit is sounding an alarm, press ONCE to turn off the beeping sound. HIGH/LOW Key: Press ONCE to display high alarm setting. Press TWICE to display low alarm setting. Press THREE TIMES to display current temperature reading. ºF/ºC Key: Press this button to alternate the temperature display scale between Fahrenheit (ºF) and Celsius (ºC).
Keypad Lock (optional on most models) Factory-set default password: The factory-set default password is 0123. If the default password is lost, press the key (located inside the battery box) for 30 seconds, then wait for the warning sound which signifies the factory-set default password has been restored. To set the password: While door is open, press the key (located inside the battery box) until it jingles, enter the 0123 password, then # within 10 seconds to confirm.
Operation of Specific Models FF6L, FF7L, FF28LWH, FF511L, FF521BL, FF590SSHH, FFAR24L, FFAR10, FFAR12W, FFAR121SS, SCR600L PLUS2, PRO, & MED Series; SP6DS2D, SP6DS, SP6DSSTB PLUS2 Series only; SCR610BL, SCR1156 MED Series only These models are all-refrigerators (no freezer compartment) with automatic defrost. All have cold plates on the rear wall, and the coldest spots in the refrigerator will be in the rear and toward the bottom. All have interior fans to promote even cooling.
Troubleshooting Try these solutions first to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call. PROBLEM: The appliance is not operating. Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Has a fuse blown or a circuit breaker been tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit. Is the thermostat incorrectly set? See How to Adjust the Temperature on page 10.
Best Practices Maintenance of the Refrigerator or Freezer Report breakdowns immediately and arrange for alternative monitored storage for vaccines while the appliance is being repaired. Regularly check the door seals to ensure a good seal is maintained. Replace the seals if they are damaged or cold air is leaking from the appliance. Defrost the appliance regularly, if required, to prevent build-up of ice which will result in unstable temperatures.
