and 3.6°F (2.0°C) below the setpoint for auxiliary code Q6 and later.
3. Alarm Codes
See the troubleshooting section for an explanation of the alarm codes.
4. Defrost
This unit is preset at the factory to defrost every 6 hours for general conditions, the first
defrost occurring 6 hours after power to the unit is turned on. Note that the defrost is a
heated defrost, and therefore will have a tendency to raise the cabinet temperature.
Cabinet temperature is not displayed during defrost; “dF” is displayed in its place. Defrost
may be initiated manually by holding down the MANUAL DEFROST button for
5 seconds.
14
5. Start-up Delay
The start circuit of the compressor is timed such that at power-up and during any
compressor off-time, there will be at least a 2 minute delay before the compressor will
start.
6. Compressor Short Cycle Timer
There is a 2 minute minimum off-time and on-time for the compressor.
Note:
• Any time the compressor is started, it will keep running for a minimum of 2 minutes.
• Any time the compressor is turned off, it will stay off for a minimum of 2 minutes.
• Time may vary with pressure switch activation.
7. Safety Devices
a) Pressure Switch
When pressure on the high-side of the unit is detected to be above a preset limit
(determined by Hoshizaki specifications), a pressure switch will activate causing power
to be interrupted to the compressor relay. This power interruption will shut down the
compressor for a minimum of 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, if pressure is no longer above
the preset limit, the pressure switch will reset automatically. When the pressure switch
resets, power will be resupplied to the compressor.
b) Compressor Protector
When a combined temperature/amperage value is above the limit specified by the
compressor manufacturer, a protector will operate independently, turning off the
compressor. The compressor will restart when this protector has reset.
Note:
• The compressor protector resets automatically.
• If the condenser fan is operating and the compressor is off, it is most likely that the
protector has operated.
c) Defrost Protection
Primary defrost termination is controlled by the defrost thermistor. However, two
additional safeties are also present.
1. Time Termination - 1 hour maximum
2. Temperature Termination - Measured by a separate device that is in-line with the
heaters and independent of the control board.
8. Energy Saving Mode
On some units, the evaporator fan and/or other components may operate intermittently as
a means to reduce energy consumption. This setting is made at the factory and such
operation is automatic.
15

A. Cleaning
WARNING
1. Do not splash water directly onto the unit. This might cause short circuit,
electric shock, corrosion or failure.
2. When cleaning or inspecting the unit, turn OFF the Power Switch and unplug
the unit or disconnect the main power source to prevent electric shock, by
unexpected entrance of water into the unit, or injury by any moving parts.
3. To prevent frostbite, do not touch foods or containers (especially metallic) in
the freezer compartment with damp hands.
4. Before using a sanitizer such as inert soap and sodium hypochlorite,
thoroughly read the manufacturer’s instructions on the proper usage and
amount.
IMPORTANT
1. To prevent damage to the painted or plastic surfaces, do not use the
following: thinner, benzine, alcohol, petroleum, soap powder, polishing
powder, alkaline cleaner, acid, scouring pad and especially those strong
cleaners for use on a ventilating fan or a cooking range. Also, to prevent
corrosion, do not use a chlorine bleach such as sodium hypochlorite on the
stainless steel surfaces.
2. Use clean cloth and hands for cleaning.
3. Before cleaning the cabinet interior, move the stored foods into another
cleanrefrigerator/freezer.
1. Exterior
The exterior is exposed to grease, moisture and dust. Even stainless steel needs
periodic cleaning to prevent possible corrosion. Wipe the exterior occasionally with a
clean, soft cloth. Use a damp cloth containing a neutral cleaner to wipe off oil or dirt build
up. Clean the worktop as often as necessary to maintain a clean, sanitary work surface.
2. Interior
Spills should be wiped up promptly to avoid unpleasant odors. The cabinet interior
should be cleaned periodically with a mild soap or detergent.
3. Door/Drawer Gaskets
Remnants of food on the gaskets or cabinet will accelerate aging. Door/drawer gaskets
should be cleaned regularly with mild soap and water to remove dirt and grease.
19
4. Shelves
Remove and clean regularly.
5. Air Filter
As the air filter becomes clogged with dirt or dust, the unit’s performance will be reduced.
Do not operate the unit with the air filter removed. This will accelerate clogging of the
condenser and result in failure. Check the filter at least twice each month. If it is dirty, use
warm water and a neutral cleaner to wash the filter. To avoid damaging the air filter do not
use water hotter than 104°F (40°C). The filter is located behind the front panel. This filter
can be removed by opening the front panel and lifting the filter away from the condenser.
Reinstall the filter after cleaning.
6. Condenser
Check the condenser (located behind the air filter) once a year and use a brush or
vacuum cleaner to clean the unit as required.
7. Drawers
On units with drawers, the drawers can be removed for cleaning either individually or as
an entire assembly.
• To remove an individual drawer, first remove all food product from the drawer. Pull the
drawer out to its fully extended position and lift up on the handle to disengage the
drawer. Before removing the drawer, carefully support the rear and front of the drawer
and then slowly remove it from the cabinet.
• To remove the drawer frame assembly, first remove the drawers and then remove the
fasteners in the thermal break and in the rear of the cabinet. Carefully slide the frame
out of the cabinet, making sure not to damage the thermal break. Reinstall in the
reverse order, making sure not to overtighten the screws in the thermal break.
• To remove the drawer slide (center slide containing rollers) for cleaning, rotate the top of
the slide away from the frame while the slide is completely inside the cabinet. Drawer
slides do not require lubrication, but slides should be kept clean and free of food.
Note: Drawer slides are dishwasher safe.
B. Maintenance
1. Air Filter
The air filter promotes clean condenser surfaces and efficient unit operation by removing
dirt and grease from circulating air. The filter should be checked monthly and cleaned
when necessary—as described in “A. Cleaning - 5. Air Filter”.
20
2. Power Supply Connection
WARNING
1. Check periodically that the power cord plug blades and their vicinity are free
of dust and that the plug is securely plugged into the receptacle. Dusty
blades or a loose connection may cause electric shock or fire.
2. Do not damage the power cord. It should not be altered, jerked, bundled,
weighed down, pinched, or tangled. Such actions could result in electric
shock or fire.
3. The unit must have a separate power supply or receptacle of proper capacity.
Branching off the power cord, using an extension cord, or sharing a single
power supply with other appliances may result in electric shock, heat
generation or fire.
If the plug or power cord is damaged, immediately contact an authorized Hoshizaki
service company and ask for repairs.
3. Other
All other maintenance or service on this unit should be performed in accordance with the
Hoshizaki Service Manual by a qualified service technician.
