Racks, Basket and Shelving
The racks, shelves
and basket in your unit are chrome-plated
so they will not rust.
The
racks pull out only 1/3 of the way. This is a safety feature so that neither the machine
nor
the rack will tip over.
Space between shelves
is adjustable.
Special Features of the FBC36OD
Outdoor
Beverage Cooler
Because this model is intended
for outdoor use, it has several
noteworthy
features.
The outer cabinet of the unit is made of weather-resistant
stainless steel.
The plastic trim
and the glass in the doors have been specially treated to minimize
the effects of the sun's
harmful
ultraviolet
(UV) radiation.
This unit can withstand
outdoor
temperatures
from
100°F to 25°F, and has a built-in
heater that will activate
itself automatically
when the
temperature
gets too low. The FBC36OD
has been "tropicalized"
with extra condenser
lines to help handle excessive
ambient
temperatures.
Timed Defrosting
Another
feature
of the FBC36OD
beverage
cooler is that the defrosting
cycle will begin
automatically
once the power has been on for 12 hours. Because of the low temperatures
inside the unit, frost or ice may begin to accumulate.
During the defrosting
cycle, the
interior fans run and the ice melts. The water thus produced flows to the bottom of the unit
and collects
in the drip tray on top of the compressor,
where heat from the compressor
should evaporate
it. (Check occasionally
to see if the tray needs to be dumped
manually.)
When the defrosting
cycle is complete,
the unit will resume normal operation.
During the defrosting
cycle, the LCD display will show the average temperature
inside the
unit, and the word STOP will flash once a second. During defrosting,
temperatures
inside
the unit will rise a little.
Normal defrosting
time for the FBC36OD
is 20 minutes.
