General
The following Health & Safety instructions are an addition to other Company Health Safety
Procedures already published:-
1.
Only engineers who have been trained on the safe handling
of
lsobutane R600a refrigerant are
authorised to transport, store or carry out system repairs.
2.
This manual is not intended
as
a comprehensive repair/maintenance guide to the appliance.
3.
It should only be used by suitably qualified persons having technical competence, applicable
product knowledge, suitable tools and test equipment.
4.
Servicing
of
electrical appliances must be undertaken with the appliance disconnected.
(unplugged from the electrical supply).
5.
Servicing must be preceded
by
earth continuity and insulation checks, plus refrigerant leak
detection.
6.
Personal safety precautions must be taken to protect against accidents caused
by
sharp edges
on metal and plastic parts.
7.
After servicing, the appliance must be rechecked for electrical safety.
8.
Smoking, naked flames, or operating gas and/or electrical equipment (including cordless power
tools) are forbidden within the storage area, working area and vehicles used to transport
lsobutane.
9.
The carrying case for the scales and refrigerant must display a red flammability label
Part Number 8100063 which should be visible and readable at all times.
10.
The vehicle and storage area must
be
ventilated as far

Health & Safety Information applicable to Servicing Refrigeration Products
containing lsobutane Refrigerant R600a
18.
lsobutane
is
heavier than air and must not

20. Electronic leak detectors with high voltage tips must NOT be used with any lsobutane (R600a).
21. All equipment used for this activity must be checked regularly and maintained
in
a safe working
condition; parts must be replaced as required.
Information regarding
lsobutane Canisters
1.
The maximum quantity
of
lsobutane
an
engineer should hold or store at any one time
is
two 420
gramme aluminium canisters, supplied individually
as
Part Number 2602600.
2.
Canisters must be stored inside the aluminium case with the weighing scales for protection from
possible damage and heat.
The aluminium case must NEVER be placed next to a heat source or
in
direct sunlight.
3.
lsobutane must only
be
dispensed to the appliance from the 420 gramme aluminium canister
placed
in
an
upright position on the weighing scales provided.
4.
A blue returns label
RS
5647 must then
be
attached and the individual canister/s left out for the
driver to collect and return for disposal.
5.
Canisters must not be punctured or the internal valve damaged.
6.
Before storing the canister it must have the extraction tap valve removed and the internal valve
of
the canister checked for leakage using leak detector. (Leak Detector Part Number 5700043).
7.
All used canisters and those found to
be
leaking should
be
exhausted to atmosphere to ensure
they are completely empty
in
the following manner:
Refit the extraction tap if necessary, open the tap and then invert the canister.
This must
be
done outside
in
open air away from buildings and ignition sources and complying

INTRODUCTION
OF
COMBINATION FROST FREE FRIDGE FREEZER
The FF1758 model was introduced during May 2006 for the UK market.
The interior
of
the fridge has 2 glass shelves and 2 salad bins with a glass cover. The door has a
bottle shelf, dairy shelf with a lid, egg tray and a commodity shelf. The freezer section has three
drawers
of
varying sizes, the drawers have ice cube compartments inserted
in
the top of the drawer
fronts, these are complete drawers.
The electronic thermostat is part
of
the control module mounted
in
the top facia
of
the appliance.
The freezer temperature settings are adjusted
by
operating the control knob mounted
in
the facia.
The fridge temperature settings are adjusted by operating the control knob mounted
on
the multi-flow
in
the fridge.
All functions except the fridge baffle are monitored and actioned
by
the control module mounted
in
the facia
of
the appliance. The fridge baffle is
of
a mechanical type, mounted
in
the multi-flow unit,
the phial
of
which
is
located
in
the exhaust duct
in
the fridge. The freezer cabinet temperature is
monitored by a sensor mounted
in
the lower right side
of
the freezer cabinet liner.
The thermistor sensor is manufactured to a very high specification, it
is
not replaceable because it is
for the most part, foamed behind the liner where it
is
not affected
by
moisture.
The sensor
is
double insulated and
in
the unlikely event
of
failure a section
of
the control module is
programmed to respond and control the functions on a timed basis from there on
in.
Defrosting is automatic (Full Frost-Free).
All models have rear wheels located
in
the compressor base plate with adjustable feet fitted to the
front.
The climate class
is
SN I ST signifying that it is designed to operate
in
ambient temperatures between
+ 10°C to +38°C.
As with many refrigeration appliances, it
is
important that it
is
installed and operated within the
recommended ambient temperature range and that there is adequate ventilation.
The doors are reversible.
MICROBAN® (Hygiene Control)
Some models have Microban®- built
in
protection for life of the product. Food safety is becoming
increasingly important to consumers with more and more cases
of
food poisoning. Microban® is the
number one brand name
in
antibacterial products. Microban®
is
built into the plastic of the fridge
interior during manufacture so it cannot wash or wear out.
It provides permanent protection against bacteria as it reduces
on
contact the spread
of
food
poisoning bacteria, which can cause contamination and odour.
It gives extra hygiene reassurance as it kills or inhibits the growth
of
any bacteria, which may come
into contact with the interior surfaces of the fridge.
Microban® is approved safe for use
in
food contact applications
by
the European Scientific
Committee for Food and has proven safe over many
in
personal care and household cleaning
products.
