The proper installation of your unit is the responsibility of the selling dealer or installer. Any questions or problems pertaining to the installation should be directed to the selling dealer Your new refrigerator and/or freezer was thoroughly inspected and tested before it was shipped from the Sub-Zero factory. During these procedures, the temperatures were preset to maintain approximately 38°F(3°C) in the refrigerator section and approximately 0°F (-18°C) in the freezer section (except 249R). If you wish to make temperature adjustments, simply turn the control knob so the indicator lines up with the desired number. The higher the number the colder the temperature (#1 is the warmest and #7 is the coldest setting). For the location of the control, refer to the model of your SubZero on pages 4 and 5. 6 You should be aware it is normal for these temperatures to fluctuate slightly, depending on external influence such as: open door for extended periods, the degree of humidity present and room temperature. Model 245 The freezer control is located on the back wall above and right of the icemaker assembly. The refrigerator control is situated left of center at the top of the refrigerator compartment (see Model 245 on page 4). Model 249R (Manual Defrost) The control is situated on the right hand side of the back wall in the upper freezer compartment (see Model 249R on page 4). Model 249RP The control is located on the right side of the back wall just below the lower shelf assembly (see Model 249RP on page 5). Model 249FF The control is found at the top of the freezer on the right side of the defrost blower assembly (see Model 249FF on page 5). 200 Use & Care Guide 3758377 1-04.qxd 1/2/2004 1:04 PM Page 7 Door Closing Operations Sounds Icemaker Operation Model 245 Condenser Fan Models 245 and 249FFI The door on the Model 245 is equipped with a door closing cam system to assist in the closing of the door. As you close the door, the cam will take over at approximately the 15 degree position to assist in the closing of the door. All undercounter units have one fan located behind the kickplate at the base of the unit. On all undercounter models the fan operates only only when the compressor is running. Certain noises may be evident with normal operation of the unit. Surrounding acoustics like walls, floors and cabinets may affect the sound level of your unit. Models 249R, 249RP and 249FF A fan motor is located in the freezer section on th models listed above. These fans operate only when the compressor is running. The refrigerator and freezer doors are both equipped with a spring-loaded door closure mechanism. As the doors are closed, the door closure engages at approximately the 15 degree position to assist the door in closing and sealing. Evaporator Fan Models 245 and 249FF Automatic Defrost For your convenience, Sub-Zero has equipped the following models with an automatic defrost system: 245, 249RP and 249FF. NOTE: Model 249R is not equipped with automatic defrost. To manually defrost, turn the a control knob to the off position. A gurgling sound or running water sound may be evident as the refrigerant circulates through the tubing. The icemaker in Models 245 and 249FFI is fully automatic and has been factory pretested. To put into operation, it requires only a connection to the house water supply. During the icemaker cycle, you may hear the sound of ice dropping into the bucket or the solenoid valve while refilling the icemaker with water. During the freezer defrost, you may hear crackling and/or sizzling as the heat from the defrost element clears the frost from the freezer coil and water runs into the defrost water pan. While the compressor is in operation, a slight hum might be evident. During the startup and shutdown of the compressor, some vibration may occur lasting only a few seconds. 7 200 Use & Care Guide 3758377 1-04.qxd C 1/2/2004 1:04 PM Page 8 aring for your sub-Zero Ice Production Models 245 and 249FFI The level of ice in the ice container is controlled by an ice level arm. When the containers are filled with ice, the ice level arm senses the level and shuts down the icemaker. As ice is used, the level drops and the level arm signals the icemaker to restore ice production. The icemaker is designed to produce a more than adequate supply of ice for normal family consumption. the length of time between ice harvest cycles will vary depending on load conditions, door openings and ambient room temperatures. On the average, you can expect a harvest of ice every two hours. Maintenance and Cleaning If ice is not used regularly, it will tend to fuse together. To avoid this, empty the ice container periodically. NOTE: To shut off icemaker, lift icemaker stop arm to the up or off position. See illustration. CAUTION For maintenance and cleaning, the circuit breaker to the refrigerator should be shut off and protective gloves worn. For general cleaning of the refrigerator and freezer interior surfaces and removable parts, wash with a mild solution of soap and water to which a small amount of baking soda has been added. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid getting water on lights and/or control dial. Automatic Icemaker Cleaning the Condenser To expose the condenser, remove the kickplate at the base of the unit. To do this, remove the screws located at each corner of the kickplate. Use a "soft" bristle brush and vacuum hose to remove the accumulation of dust and lint particles on the condenser. IMPORTANT NOTE: Failure to properly clean this area could result in temperature lost and/or possible mechanical failure of the refrigerator and/or freezer. To insure proper performance, the cleaning of your unit’s condenser is required. IMPORTANT NOTE: This should be performed every 3 to 6 months under normal use and living conditions. 8 Cleaning the Condenser 200 Use & Care Guide 3758377 1-04.qxd 1/2/2004 1:04 PM Page 9 Light Bulb Replacement CAUTION Always shut off the circuit breaker to the unit and wear protective gloves when replacing light bulbs.

For short vacations: Remove all perishable items. Shut off the icemaker. See Icemaker Operation on page 7. Do not change the settings of your controls. For extended vacations: The control(s) to your refrigerator or freezer should be shut off. Empty all contents in the refrigerator/freezer and wash, rinse and dry interior of unit. Vacant homes: If for any reason this unit is put into service on a temporary basis and later shut off, the control(s) to the refrigerator or freezer should be shut off. For extended vacations or vacant homes, you should block door(s) open slightly. About one inch, so fresh air can circulate and keep interior dry. You should also turn off power to the unit or loosen light bulb(s). CAUTION The moisture developed during even the shortest amount of running time could attack the metal parts if the doors are left closed after shutting down. Be sure the doors are blocked open after any operation. 9 200 Use & Care Guide 3758377 1-04.qxd T 1/2/2004 1:04 PM Page 10 roubleshooting Guide If you think that your refrigerator is not operating properly, check the following before calling your Sub-Zero Factory Authorized Service Center or dealer. This guide may save you time and the expense of a service call. If refrigerator /freezer is not operating: • Is there electrical power to equipment? • Is home fuse blown or circuit breaker off? • Is refrigerator/freezer control on? • Is condenser clean? • Has door been left open? Be sure no foods are obstructing proper door closing. • If still not running, unit may be in defrost; wait 30 minutes to see if unit will restart. If refrigerator /freezer is warmer than usual: If refrigerator /freezer is frosted up: • Check control for proper setting. • Have the doors been left open? • Has door been left open too long? • Have you recently added a large quantity of food? If you hear unusual noises: • Is condenser behind grille clean? • These may be normal operating sounds (see page 7). If refrigerator / freezer runs too much: If condensation forms inside the unit: • Is condenser behind grille clean? • This is normal during high humidity and frequent door openings. • On hot days and warm room ambients, the motor runs longer. • Have doors been open for extended times or large amounts of food added? 10 • Are doors closing and sealing properly? • Are doors closing and sealing properly? 200 Use & Care Guide 3758377 1-04.qxd 1/2/2004 1:04 PM Page 11 If condensation forms on the outside: If there is odor in the unit and ice: • It is possible during periods of high humidity that some condensation could appear. This condition will subside when humidity levels drop. If condensation is excessive, contact your Sub-Zero Factory Authorized Service Center. • Completely clean the unit. • Be sure doors are closed and gaskets are sealing. If it is too hot around freezer compartment: • Cover foods tightly. If light bulb needs replacing: • Turn off circuit breaker to unit, wear gloves to protect against glass (see page 9). If you hear occasional buzzing: If you need service: • Please have model and serial number available. • Call your nearest Sub-Zero Authorized Service Center. For the name of a local Sub-Zero Authorized Service Center, contact your dealer or Sub-Zero Freezer Company at 800-222-7820, write P.O. Box 44130, Madison, WI 53744, or e-mail us at customerservice@subzero.com. • Is water supply connected to icemaker and turned on? • Clean condenser. 11 200 Use & Care Guide 3758377 1-04.qxd K 1/2/2004 1:04 PM Page 12 eeping food at its best Food Storage Suggestions Shelf life of fresh foods varies depending on how fresh it is when you buy it. To keep your food fresher longer, follow the recommended storage tips. • Vegetables: Wash vegetables in cool water and drain. Store in air-tight containers or plastic wrap. Vegetables do well in high-humidity storage. • Fruits: Wash and dry fresh fruits. Store more aromatic fruits in plastic bags. Fruits do well stored in low humidity. • Prepackaged Meats: Store in original packaging. After opening, rewrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. • Fresh Meats, Fish and Poultry: Remove store wrappings, then rewrap in plastic wrap, foil or waxed paper and refrigerate immediately. • Eggs: Store eggs unwashed in their carton or a portable egg tray. Use within 2 weeks. • Milk, Cream, Cottage Cheese: Keep carton closed. Store on refrigerator shelf and use within 5 days. • Cheese: Store in original packaging until ready to use. After opening, rewrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. • Leftovers: Let cool and cover tightly with plastic wrap or foil. Airtight plastic containers work well to prevent drying out and odor transfer. 12 • Freezer Storage: Wrap foods in material designed for frozen food storage. The wrap must seal out air and moisture. Do not refreeze thawed meats. • Ice Cream: The firmness of the ice cream will depend on its cream content. Higher quality ice creams usually have a higher cream content requiring colder freezer temperatures to maintain their firmness. Soft ice cream is not always an indication of a temperature problem. Make sure your refrigerator and freezer doors close freely and completely. Overloading will affect temperatures inside the unit. Do not fill your freezer with large quantities of unfrozen foods expecting them to "fast freeze". Give the freezer ample time to circulate cold air around unfrozen items before adding additional items. 200 Use & Care Guide 3758377 1-04.qxd S 1/2/2004 1:04 PM Page 13 ervice for Your Sub-zero If You Need Service … This Use and Care Guide gives you the tools necessary to preserve food at optimum quality in your Sub-Zero unit.
