BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Remove all packaging and place the chiller on a stable, secure flat surface. Position the chiller
away from heat sources, where the unit is well-ventilated and protected from moisture, or
extremes of heat or cold. The refrigerator may not function properly if the temperature rises
above +30 ℃ (standard models). The refrigerator meets the operating conditions according
to climate class 4.

A 13A fuse is fitted. Never replace with a fuse rated higher than this.
NEVER USE AN EXTENSION LEAD. If the mains cable will not reach the nearest

socket, either rearrange your store layout or ask a qualified electrician to fit a new socket.
If power is cut off, wait for at least 5 minutes before plugging the unit in again to avoid

damaging the compressor.
Do not place combustible, explosive or volatile articles, corrosive acid or alkali, or liquid in

glass containers into the chiller. Always exercise caution if adjusting the temperature.
The maximum load for a shelf is 30Kg.

PLUG IN

Once plugged in the display will show the temperature inside the chiller and the compressor
will run late on (the indicator light of cooling will on at the same time). This temperature is
the actual temperature recorded by the probes inside the chiller and as the chiller cools to
the set point so the number on the display will descend accordingly.

OPERATING FRONT PANEL DISPLAY

Set point temperature press button for one second the current set point

will flash display, then press button or button to change the set point,
select the desired target and then press button to confirm the new value.

Stop or start the compressor

If you want the compressor stop working you can press button for three seconds.
When the front panel display show OF and the current temperature alternately, which
means the compressor has stopped working. If you need the compressor to re­start, press button for three seconds again, the compressor will run normally.

Defrosting (Refrigerators and bottle coolers)

⚫

The system will defrost periodically automatically, this is to stop the build of ice on the
evaporator which would reduce cooling performance. Whilst on defrosting the compressor will
stop working and the temperature inside the chiller will rise slowly. After about 30 minutes the
defrost period is complete the compressor will work as normal.

⚫

In some extreme cases, icing up may occasionally occur during periods of high climatic humidity
but may also be due to excessively frequent or extended door openings, moist items being placed
in the chamber, or too low an operating temperature. A significant buildup of ice may impair the
performance of the product and a manual defrost should be performed. To start defrosting, press
button for 3 seconds. If you want stop defrosting, press button for 3 seconds again.

Defrosting (freezer models)

These models will require a manual defrost periodically. A defrost will be required when ice build-up
on the shelves reaches 5mm thickness. Products must be moved to alternative storage and the unit
to be defrosted must be disconnected from the electrical supply. Leaving the door open will assist in
the defrost. Provision must be made to collect the water released during a defrost, placing a
container on each shelf with warm water may assist with the defrost and help to catch water from
the shelf above, place a shallow tray / towels in front of the unit to catch any water from the bottom
of the unit. DO NOT USE any objects or scrapers to break away any ice as damage can occur. Clean
and dry all internal surfaces before switching back on.

CLEANING

1. UNPLUG your chiller and remove any stock to a suitable back-up chiller.

2. Wash the inner compartment with warm water and neutral detergent. DO NOT allow the

NEVER use metal or sharp implements to remove debris.

3. Dry all surface thoroughly.

4. To ensure trouble-free operation the condenser should be cleaned every three months
where appropriate using a vacuum hose. The condenser is located behind lower grill at the
rear of the cabinet. In exceptionally dusty locations the condenser should be cleaned more
often.
