SUB-ZERO UNDERCOUNTER USE & CARE
AUTOMATIC DEFROST
Your Sub-Zero unit is equipped with an auto-
matic defrost system. The refrigerator section
w
ill defrost during each off cycle of the refrig-
erator compressor. The freezer section (Model
UC-24C) is controlled by an energy-saving
A
daptive Defrost system, which defrosts as
needed.
DOOR CLOSING
The door of your Undercounter unit has a
spring-loaded closure mechanism. As the door
is closed, the door closer engages to help
close and seal the door.
VACATION TIME
For extended vacations, shut off power to the
unit. Empty the unit and block the doors open
slightly to let fresh air in and keep the interior
dry and fresh smelling.
For short vacations, remove all perishable
items. Shut off the ice maker and empty the
ice bucket. Do not change the control settings.
If your religious observances require turning
off the lights, refer to Sabbath Mode, page 8.
SOUNDS
You may hear some noises in the normal oper-
ation of the unit. Surrounding acoustics like
w
alls, floors and cabinets may affect the sound
of your unit. Some noises may be enhanced
when the door is open.
While the compressor is in operation, you may
h
ear a slight hum. During the start-up and
shutdown of the compressor, you may feel
vibration for a few seconds.
During the ice maker cycle (Model UC-24C),
you may hear the sound of ice dropping into
the container or the solenoid valve operating
while refilling the ice maker with water.
