Operation of Specific Models 
All-Refrigerators: FF24LMED2, FF28LWHMED2, FF511LBIMED2, FF511LBI7MED2, 
FF511LBIMED2ADA, FF511LBI7MED2ADA, FF7LBIMED2, FF7LBIMED2ADA, 
FFAR10MED2, SCR600LBIMED2, SCR600LBIMED2ADA
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. In the rear bottom 
above the step, there is a drain line to allow defrost water to exit the refrigerator. Keep this 
drain line clear, or icing inside the refrigerator will occur. FF7, FF511L, FFAR10, and SCR 
series models have lights that are not door-activated, and are controlled either by a rocker 
switch on the top right or a light switch inside. The light inside these units will stay on until 
switched off manually. While LED lighting will not generate heat, it is not recommended to 
leave the light on for long periods of time. 
NOTE: Models with BI in the model number are designed for built-in operation and need 
very little clearance on the sides and above the units. All other models require at least 4 
inches of airflow on the sides and  above the units. All models, including built-in units, 
operate best when 2 inches is provided between the rear wall and the back of the unit. 
All-Freezers: FS24LMED2, FS24L7MED2, FS30LMED2, FS30L7MED2, FS407LBIMED2, 
FS407LBI7MED2, FS407LBIMED2ADA, FS407LBI7MED2ADA, VT65MLBIMED2, 
VT65MLBIMED2ADA, VT65MLBI7MED2, VT65MLBI7MED2ADA 
These are manual defrost all-freezers. No internal fans are present, and ice will build up 
along  the  cooling  coils.  Periodically  defrost  the  ice  (recommended  when  the  ice  level 
reaches a thickness of 1/4 to 1/2 inch). NEVER USE A METAL INSTRUMENT as you can 
damage  the  cooling  coils,  which  will  void  your  warranty  and  often  cannot  be  repaired. 
Before defrosting the unit, remove the contents of the freezer, then set the thermostat 
to OFF (the compressor will stop working) and disconnect the power. 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. Soak up the melt water with 
clean  toweling  or  a  sponge  and  be  sure  the  interior  is  dry  before  turning  the 
thermostat back to its normal setting.
For built-in (BI) models and clearance information, see NOTE above.
