Frequently Asked Questions - CSD-71 Emperor's Select

What should I do if the compressor does not run?

Check if the fuse is blown or circuit breaker tripped. Ensure the power cord is plugged in. If the thermostat is set too high, lower it. The unit may be in a defrost cycle - wait for it to finish.

Why is the cabinet temperature too warm?

Possible causes: thermostat set too high (lower it), blocked airflow (rearrange products and clear ducts), low refrigerant (contact a technician), or the door is slightly ajar (close it completely).

How do I clean the condenser coil?

Clean the condenser coil at least once per month using a commercial condenser coil cleaner. Keep the coil free of dust and lint for efficient operation.

What type of refrigerant does this fridge use?

The unit uses a flammable refrigerant. The exact type is not specified in the manual but is likely a hydrocarbon. Service must be done by trained personnel.

How does the defrost system work?

The unit has an automatic defrost system. During compressor downtime, the evaporator fan circulates air to melt frost. Run-off water drains and evaporates.

What are the required clearances for installation?

Maintain 6 inches of clearance on the sides and back of the unit for proper ventilation. Avoid direct sunlight and humid areas.

Can I use an extension cord?

No. Do not use extension cords. Plug the unit directly into a grounded, properly-sized electrical outlet with its own dedicated circuit.

How do I set the temperature?

Press the 'SET' button on the control panel to adjust temperature. If no buttons are pressed for 10 seconds, the display shows current temperature.

What is the warranty coverage?

Emperor's Select offers a 2-year limited replacement warranty for commercial units from date of delivery. Residential use is covered for only 30 days. Normal wear parts like bulbs and gaskets are excluded.

How do I clean the interior?

Use a solvent of warm water and mild soap. Avoid steel wool, caustic soap, abrasive cleaners, or bleach. Periodically remove shelves and brackets for cleaning.

USE & CAUTION

Your new refrigerator is already factory-set to run at optimum temperatures for food safety and should require no adjustments.

DEFROST SYSTEM

Refrigeration units contain an automatic defrost system. Refrigeration coils are kept below the freezing point (32°F). During compressor downtime, the evaporator fan continues to circulate air through the evaporator coil. This air circulation raises the coil temperature above the freezing point, melting any accumulated frost. Run-off water is drained into the evaporator pan and evaporated.
