V. a - CLEANING THE CONDENSER (cont’d):
Vacuum or brush any dirt, lint or dust from the finned
condenser coil, the compressor and other cooling
system parts. If significant dirt is clogging the con-
denser fins, use compressed air to blow this clear.
Care should be taken not to bend any of the condenser
fins, as this will reduce performance and compressor
life. Lower louver assembly and replace screws to
hold it in place.

HINGE REPLACEMENT:
Both the door and hinge can be easily removed from
the cabinet. To remove the door, remove the plug at
the bottom of the top hinge. Inside the hinge there is
a small screw which secures the door in place. Re-
move this with a flat head screwdriver and the door
can then be lifted off the hinge. To remove the door
portion of the hinge from the door, lift off the hinge
cover and then remove the three Phillips head screws
which secure the hinge in place on the door. To re-
move the cabinet portion of the hinge, remove the three
Phillips head screws which hold it in place. On solid
door units, the top hinge(s) contains a microswitch
for controlling the interior lighting.
To reassemble the hinge reverse the previous proce-
dure.
V. c - REPLACING THE GASKETS:
To remove the gasket to be replaced, grasp it firmly
by one corner and pull it out. Before attempting to
install a new gasket, both the unit and the gasket it-
self must be at room temperature. Insert the four cor-
ners first by using a rubber mallet (or hammer with a
block of wood). After the corners are properly inserted,
work your way towards the center from both ends by
gently hitting with a mallet until the gasket is com-
pletely seated in place (see figure 7 for proper gasket
placement).
NOTE: The gasket may appear too large, but if it is
installed as indicated above it will slip into place.

LIGHT SWITCHES:
All G-Express models (except sliding glass door mod-
els) include a concealed light switch mounted in the
top door hinge(s), which automatically activates the
interior light when the door is opened. When the door
is closed, the lights are not operating.
In addition, on glass door models, an exterior mounted,
illuminated red switch is included for manual light con-
trol. In the ON position, the lights are illuminated
whether the doors are open or not. In the OFF posi-
tion, the lights are controlled by the hinge switch as
described in the first paragraph.
V. CARE & MAINTENANCE
WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER
SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING ANY PARTS OF THE
UNIT.
V. a - CLEANING THE CONDENSER:
The most important thing you can do to insure a long,
reliable service life for your Traulsen is to regularly
clean the condenser coil.
The condensing unit requires regularly scheduled
cleaning to keep the finned condenser clean of lint
and dust accummulation. Keeping the condenser
clean allows the cabinet to operate more efficiently
and use less energy. To clean the condenser, first
disconnect electrical power to the cabinet and lift up
the front louver assembly. To lift this, remove the two
screws located on both sides at the bottom of the lou-
ver assembly (see figure 5). Once the screws are re-
moved, the panel can be pivoted upwards allowing
full access to the front facing condenser (see figure
6).
