Both the condenser and evaporator fan mo-

tors operate on DC voltage. The control board

supplies 115 volts AC to each motor, where it

is converted to DC.

EVAPORATOR FAN

• Fan Start Delay—Fan is energized

3 minutes after the compressor starts.

• Fan Stop Delay—Fan is switched OFF

1 minute after the compressor stops.

• IMPORTANT: Evaporator fan shuts off

when either the refrigerator or freezer

door is opened.

CONDENSER FAN

• Fan start delay—Fan is energized

1 minute after the compressor starts.

• Fan stops when the compressor shuts

off.

POWER FAILURE / TEMPERATURE RISE

This product has no audible alarm. However, it

will alert the customer of a long power outage,

or temperature rise, if the temperature rises

above 17.6

°F (–8°C). Should this occur, the

following will happen:

• The “alert” will only be indicated on the

freezer temperature display.

• The freezer temperature display blinks

continually, and will show the actual

freezer compartment temperature from

the time the power is restored. If there

are consecutive outages, the display

will show the highest temperature for

the entire period.

• The actual compartment temperature

will display until the freezer COLD or

COLDER keypad is pressed. The “alert”

is terminated, and the display will revert

back to the set temperature.

• All settings and memory are saved and

are continued after power has been re-

stored, i.e. FAST FREEZE, GROCERY

SAVOR, and ice preference.

FAN OPERATION AND DELAY

DEFAULT SETTINGS

If communication between the user interface

and the control board is lost for more than

3 minutes, the user interface assumes the

board is working correctly. The control board

stores the current temperature settings, but

will go into a “default mode,” and maintain

preset temperatures. Once communication is

restored, the stored settings are again used.

If communication is broken between the user

interface and the control board during an “ON”

cycle:
