SUB-ZERO BUILT-IN USE & CARE
CONDENSER FAN MOTOR
A
ll Built-In models have a fan behind the grille
to cool the compressor area. This fan runs with
either compressor.
A
UTOMATIC DEFROST
Your Sub-Zero unit is equipped with an auto-
matic defrost system. The refrigerator section
will defrost during each off cycle of the refrig-
erator compressor. The freezer section is
controlled by an energy-saving Adaptive
Defrost system, which defrosts as needed.
SOUNDS
You may hear some noises in the normal oper-
ation of the unit. Surrounding acoustics like
walls, floors and cabinets may affect the sound
of your unit. For example, a gurgling or
running water sound is probably refrigerant
circulating through the tubing. In Models 685
and 695, the ice dispenser valve inside the
refrigerator door snaps closed five seconds
after either the
ICE
or
WATER
key pad is
released.
During the ice maker cycle you may hear the
sound of ice dropping into the container or the
solenoid valve operating while refilling the ice
maker 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
water pan.
While the compressors are in operation, you
may hear a slight hum. During the star
t-up and
shutdown of the compressor, you may feel
vibration for a few seconds.
Some of these noises may be enhanced when
the unit door(s) are open.
OPERATIONS
DOOR AND DRAWER CLOSING
M
odels 611, 611G, 650 and 650G:
Y
our
refrigerator door has a door closing cam to
help in closing the door. With the door opened
t
o about 120 degrees, the cam will hold in the
open position if the door is stopped. As you
close the door, the cam will take over at about
15 degrees to help close the door.
Your freezer drawer has a self-closing mecha-
nism. The incline, built into roller assemblies
on the drawer, uses gravity to assist in closing
the drawer.
If your Built-In unit is positioned in a corner,
you may want to install an optional door stop
kit, which limits door opening to 90 degrees.
This door stop is provided with each Model
611, 611G, 650 and 650G and is shipped in a
plastic bag in the grille area.
DOOR CLOSING
Models 601R, 601RG, 601F, 661, 642, 685,
632 and 695:
Your refrigerator and freezer
doors have spring-loaded closure mechanisms.
As the doors are closed, the door closure
engages to help close and seal the doors. An
optional 90-degree or 105-degree door stop is
available through your Sub-Zero dealer.

sories are available
