• The °F and CT LEDs remain on throughout the sequence of operation.  
• This appliance uses a time-initiated/time-terminated Comp off cycle defrost. The factory  
default defrost setting is once every 6 hours for 30 min.  
• 6-hr. defrost timer starts the very first time CB is energized (factory testing). Defrost time  
is cumulative power on time, therefore time may vary between starting the appliance  
and the first defrost. After the first defrost, defrost can be monitored for activation every  
6 hours.  
• Cabinet temperature is displayed during defrost.  
1. Startup  
EvapFM icon is on and Comp icon is flashing. EvapFM energizes. 2-min. Comp delay  
timer starts. Comp icon flashes until 2-min. Comp delay timer terminates.  
2. Cool Down

icon turns on and Comp energizes. 3-min. Comp run timer starts. 2-min. EvapFM timer  
starts, EvapFM icon starts flashing, and EvapFM de-energizes. When 2-min. EvapFM  
timer terminates, EvapFM icon turns steady and EvapFM energizes.  
7. Energy Saving Mode  
ESM initiates during periods of inactivity. Once CTh cools to setpoint, 20-min. ESM timer  
starts. DS must remain engaged without activation (door open) for 20 min. after CTh  
has achieved setpoint for ESM to initiate. Once 20-min. ESM timer terminates, EvapFM  
operates on ESM cycle. See "EvapFM ESM Cycle" below.  
Note: If DS is activated (door open) before 20-min. ESM timer terminates, ESM timer  
resets and 20-min. ESM timer re-starts once CTh cools to setpoint again.  
EvapFM ESM Cycle:  
• If Comp is de-energized when 20-min. ESM timer terminates, EvapFM de-energizes.  
• If Comp is energized when 20-min. ESM timer terminates, EvapFM continues and  
cycles off with Comp.  
• During ESM Comp off time, EvapFM operation is 1 min. on and 5 min. off. EvapFM  
operates on and off with Comp.

IV. Service Diagnosis  
WARNING  
• This appliance should be diagnosed and repaired only by qualified service  
personnel to reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire.  
• Risk of electric shock. Use extreme caution and exercise safe electrical practices.  
• Moving parts (e.g. fan blade) can crush and cut. Keep hands clear.  
• Make sure all food zones are clean after the appliance is serviced. For cleaning  
procedures, see "VI. A. Cleaning."  
A. Diagnostic Procedure  
The diagnostic procedure is basically a sequence check that allows you to diagnose the  
electrical system and components. Before proceeding, check for correct installation and  
proper voltage per appliance nameplate. When checking AC voltage (115VAC), always  
choose a neutral (W wire) to establish a good neutral connection. If the control board is  
in alarm, see "II.F Alarm Safeties." For further details, see "IV.B. Control Board Check."  
• If the control panel is locked, press and hold the "-" button and the power button until  
"UnL" appears briefly on the display module.  
• The °F and cabinet temperature LEDs remain on throughout the sequence of operation.  
• This appliance uses a time-initiated/time-terminated Comp off cycle defrost. The factory  
default defrost setting is once every 6 hours for 30 min.  
• 6-hr. defrost timer starts the very first time CB is energized (during factory testing).  
Defrost time is cumulative power on time, therefore time may vary between starting  
the appliance and the first defrost. After the first defrost, defrost can be monitored for  
activation every 6 hours.  
• Cabinet temperature is displayed during defrost.  
1) Press and hold the power button for 2 sec. to turn off the appliance.  
2) Unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet.  
3) Remove the top panel. Secure the top panel to prevent it from falling over when  
checking voltages and CB items.  
4) Secure (tape) DS in the door closed position.  
5) Plug the appliance back into the electrical outlet. °F LED turns on. Diagnosis: Confirm  
that °F LED is on. If not, check CB POWER connector for 115VAC. If 115VAC is not  
present, check power supply and power cord connection. If 115VAC is present and  
°F LED is not on, replace CB.  
6) Press the power button for 2 sec. to turn on the appliance.  
26  
 
7) Startup–EvapFM icon is on and Comp icon is flashing. EvapFM energizes.  
2-min. Comp delay timer starts. Comp icon flashes until 2-min. Comp delay timer  
terminates. Diagnosis: Check that CT LEDs and EvapFM icon turn on. Next, check  
that EvapFM energizes. If not, confirm that DS is engaged. Check across DS for 5VDC.  
If 5VDC is not present, check DS activation lever and DS continuity. Note: DS contacts  
are open when DS is engaged. If 5VDC is present, check CB EvapFM connector for  
12VDC. If 12VDC is not present, replace CB. If 12VDC is present, check EvapFM wiring  
connector for loose connection, EvapFM continuity, and fan blade for binding.  
8) Cool Down–EvapFM icon is on and Comp icon turns steady. EvapFM continues.  
2-min. Comp delay timer terminates. Comp energizes and 3-min. Comp run timer  
starts. Diagnosis: Confirm CTh is at least 4°F above setpoint. Next, check that Comp  
energizes. If not, check CB Comp connector for 115VAC. If 115VAC is not present,  
confirm CTh status. See "IV.C. Thermistor Check." If CTh is in range and 115VAC is not  
present, replace CB. If 115VAC is present, and Comp is off, check Comp wire harness  
connections. Next check Comp external protector (integrated with start relay), Comp  
start components, and Comp motor winding continuity. If Comp energizes and the  
cabinet does not cool down, check for air leaks around the door (gasket), a restriction in  
the refrigeration circuit, or refrigerant leak.  
9) Cool Down AchievedEvapFM icon is on. CTh cools to setpoint (default 39°F).  
EvapFM continues. If Comp run time > 3-min., Comp icon turns off and Comp  
de-energizes. If Comp run time < 3-min., Comp continues until 3-min. Comp run timer  
terminates, then Comp icon turns off and Comp de-energizes. Diagnosis: If CTh is  
in range and Comp does not de-energize, confirm Comp run time > 3 min. If Comp  
continues after 3-min. Comp run timer terminates, replace CB.  
10) Cool Down RestartEvapFM icon is on. CTh warms to 4°F above setpoint (default  
39°F). Comp icon turns on and Comp energizes. 3-min. Comp run timer starts.  
Diagnosis: See step 8 above.  
11) Defrost–EvapFM and Defrost icons are on. Cabinet Temperature is Displayed.  
a) Automatic Defrost Initiation: 6-hr. DT terminates. 30-min. DT starts. EvapFM  
continues. If Comp run time < 3 min., Comp icon and Comp continue until 3-min.  
Comp run timer terminates. Once 3-min. Comp run timer terminates, Comp  
icon turns off, Comp de-energizes, and defrost starts. Diagnosis: Has 6-hr. DT  
terminated? If defrost icon is on, confirm that Comp de-energizes. If not, confirm  
Comp run time > 3 min. If Comp continues after 3-min. Comp run timer terminates,  
replace CB.  
b) Manual Defrost Initiation: To initiate a manual defrost, press and hold the "+" button  
until the defrost icon turns. 30-min. DT starts. EvapFM continues. If Comp run time  
< 3 min., Comp icon and Comp continue until 3-min. Comp run timer terminates.  
Once 3-min. Comp run timer terminates, Comp icon turns off, Comp de-energizes,  
and defrost starts. Diagnosis: If defrost icon is on, confirm that Comp de-energizes.  
If not, confirm Comp run time > 3 min. If Comp continues after 3-min. Comp run timer  
terminates, replace CB.

c) Defrost Termination: Comp icon is on. EvapFM icon flashing. 30-min. DT  
terminates. 6-hr. DT starts. Comp icon turns on and Comp energizes. 2-min. EvapFM  
timer starts. EvapFM icon starts flashing and EvapFM de-energizes. When 2-min.  
EvapFM timer terminates, EvapFM icon turns steady and EvapFM energizes. Normal  
operation resumes. Diagnosis: Has appliance been in defrost for 30 min.? If not,  
allow 30-min. DT to terminate. Confirm CTh is 4°F above setpoint. After 30-min.  
DT terminates, does Comp icon turn on and Comp energize? If not, replace CB. If  
30-min. DT terminates and Comp icon turns on but Comp does not energize, check  
CB Comp connector for 115VAC. If 115VAC is not present, replace CB. If 115VAC is  
present, and Comp is off, check Comp wire harness connections, Comp external  
protector (integrated with start relay), Comp start components, and Comp motor  
winding continuity.  
12) Energy Saving Mode  
ESM initiates during periods of inactivity. Once CTh cools to setpoint, 20-min. ESM  
timer starts. DS must remain engaged without activation (door open) for 20 min. after  
CTh has achieved setpoint for ESM to initiate. Once 20-min. ESM timer terminates,  
EvapFM operates on ESM cycle.  
Diagnosis: Confirm 20-min. ESM timer terminates. Check that EvapFM cycles off with  
Comp and operates 1 min. on and 5 min. off when Comp is de-energized. If not, replace  
CB.

C.Thermistor Check  
The cabinet thermistor is used for cabinet temperature control. Thermistor resistance  
varies depending on temperature. The control board monitors the resistance to control  
system operation. No adjustment is required. In the event the cabinet thermistor reading  
is out of range (Pr1 alarm), the compressor operates on a fixed time basis of 10-min. on  
and 10-min. off.  
To check thermistor resistance, follow the steps below.  
1) Press the power button for 2 sec. to turn the appliance off, then unplug the appliance.  
2) Remove the evaporator shroud.  
3) Disconnect and remove the evaporator thermistor.  
4) Immerse the thermistor sensor portion in a glass containing ice and water for 2 to 3 min.  
5) Check the resistance between the wires at the thermistor connector. Normal reading is  
within 14.0 to 19.0 kΩ. If outside the normal reading, replace the thermistor.  
6) Reconnect and replace the thermistor in its correct position.  
7) Replace the evaporator shroud in its correct position.  
8) Plug the appliance back in. Press the power button for 2 sec. to turn the appliance on.

V. Replacement of Components  
WARNING  
• This appliance should be diagnosed and repaired only by qualified service  
personnel to reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire.  
• Press the power button for 2 sec. to turn off the appliance, then unplug the power  
cord from the electrical outlet before servicing.  
• Make sure all food zones in the appliance are clean after the appliance is  
serviced. For cleaning procedures, see "VI.A. Cleaning."  
A. Service for Refrigerant Lines  
WARNING  
• Repairs requiring the refrigeration circuit to be opened must be performed by  
properly trained and EPA-certified service personnel.  
• Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace  
of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise  
the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). Do not use R-134a as a mixture with  
pressurized air for leak testing.  
NOTICE  
• Always recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container. Do not  
discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.  
• Do not leave the system open for longer than 15 min. when replacing or servicing  
parts. The Polyol Ester (POE) oils used in R-134a appliances can absorb  
moisture quickly. Therefore it is important to prevent moisture from entering the  
system when replacing or servicing parts.  
• Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened.  
Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.  
Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the refrigerant  
flow.  
• When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from  
overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed 250°F (121°C).  
1. Refrigerant Recovery  
No refrigerant access valves are provided on this appliance. Using proper refrigerant  
practices, utilize a temporary tap-line valve on the high side to recover the refrigerant.  
Store the refrigerant in an approved container. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the  
atmosphere.  
After recovery is complete, replace the tap-line valve with a proper, permanent access  
valve.  
33  
 
2. Brazing  
WARNING  
• R-134a itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to  
212°F (100°C).  
• R-134a itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high  
temperatures (open flames), R-134a can be decomposed to form hydrofluoric  
acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.  
• Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing arsenic.  
• Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace  
of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise  
the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). Do not use R-134a as a mixture with  
pressurized air for leak testing.  
1) Braze all fittings while purging with nitrogen gas flowing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.  
NOTICE  
• Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened.  
Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.  
Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the refrigerant  
flow.  
• When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from  
overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed 250°F (121°C).  
2) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace  
of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise  
the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). Do not use R-134a as a mixture with  
pressurized air for leak testing.  
3. Evacuation and Recharge (R-134a)  
1) Attach a vacuum pump to the system. Be sure the high-side charging hose is connected  
to the field-installed high-side access valve.  
IMPORTANT  
The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for current  
refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for  
evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for POE oils.  
2) Turn on the vacuum pump, then open the high-side valve on the gauge manifold. Never  
allow the oil in the vacuum pump to flow backwards.  
3) Allow the vacuum pump to pull down to a 29.9" Hg vacuum. Evacuating period depends  
on pump capacity.  
4) Close the high-side valve on the gauge manifold.  
34  
 
5) Disconnect the gauge manifold hose from the vacuum pump and attach it to a  
refrigerant service cylinder. Remember to loosen the connection and purge the air from  
the hose. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. Hoshizaki recommends  
only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets the requirements of ARI  
Standard 700 (latest edition) be used.  
6) A liquid charge is recommended when charging an R-134a system. Place the service  
cylinder on the scales; if the service cylinder is not equipped with a dip tube, invert the  
service cylinder, then place it on the scales. Open the high-side valve on the gauge  
manifold.  
7) Allow the system to charge with liquid until the proper charge weight is met.  
8) Close the high-side valve on the gauge manifold, then close the refrigerant access valve  
(if applicable). Disconnect the gauge manifold hose.  
9) Cap the access valve to prevent a possible leak.  
B. Important Notes for Component Replacement
