1.3 Before Servicing
Always disconnect power to any Marvel product before attempting to service it. Always verify that power has •
been disconnected.
If the unit has been running, use caution around the condenser and copper tubing. These areas may be very •
hot.
Use caution around the condenser fins and baseplate edges. These areas are sharp.•
Refrigerant is under high pressure. Always evacuate any system before attempting to open it.•
Reasonable care and safe work methods should be practiced when working on any Marvel product. Never •
work with energized electrical equipment in wet or damp areas.
Use an appropriate work area and location when performing repairs. You will find that it is easier to repair •
undercounter units if they are set on a raised platform or workbench.
Always wear protective safety glasses and gloves when working on any Marvel product.•
Any refrigerant, whether CFC, HCFC, or HFC (R-12, R-22, or R-134a), must be recovered. Federal regulations •
prohibit the intentional venting or release of refrigerants during the service repair or disposal of an appliance.
