CAUTION · Use care when moving and handling the unit. Use gloves to prevent personal injury from sharp edges. · Do not lift the unit by the door or door handle. · Do not install the unit behind closed doors or in any way that would obstruct airflow to the front grille, which may cause the unit to malfunction. Tools/Materials Required · Screwdrivers -- slotted and Phillips head · 1/4-inch thick door panel material and cutting tools (Black or White units) (If installing a 1/4" Panel) · Sandpaper; low odor, water clean up, quick drying finish; tack cloth and, if desired, water-based wood stain and synthetic foam brush (1175WC &1175BEV units) Inspection Unwrap and inspect the unit on a flat, level surface capable of supporting its entire weight. 06/2006 3 www.U-LineService.com 1175R, 1175WC and 1175BEV Models Exterior Cleaning (As Required) Black and White Models: · Black and White surfaces may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting. Stainless Models: · Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt water or cleaners with bleach. · Clean any glass door fronts with a non-chlorine glass cleaner. · Keep your Stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish on a monthly basis. For best results use Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line Corporation. (The part number is 173348.) Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning on a weekly basis. · Do not clean with steel wool pads. · Do not use stainless steel cleaners/polishes on any glass surfaces. · Do not use cleaners that are not specifically intended for stainless steel on stainless surfaces (this includes glass, tile and counter cleaners). · If any surface discolors or rusting appears, clean it quickly with Bon-Ami or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser and a non-abrasive cloth. Always clean in the direction of the grain. Always finish this process with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable product to prevent further problems. · Use of abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite will cause the graining in the stainless to become blurred. · Rust that is allowed to linger can penetrate into the surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of the rust may not be possible. 3 Prepare Site Your U-Line product has been designed for either freestanding or built-in installation. When built-in, your unit does not require additional air space for top, sides or rear.

See Electrical Specifications on Page 11. Environmental Requirements Many U-Line models are designed to operate in harsh outdoor/marine environments. Special considerations include the following: (1175 REFRIGERATOR requirements) · The units are designed to operate between 50°F (10°C) and 110°F (40°C). High ambient temperatures (110°F [40°C] or higher) may reduce the unit's ability to reach low temperatures and may also reduce the ice production rate for those models with icemakers. · If the ambient temperature is expected to drop below 45°F (7°C), drain all water from the unit to prevent freezing damage not covered by the warranty. · For best performance, keep the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat generating equipment. · For best performance and life outdoors, place under a counter or provide shelter of some kind.
