The desired value can only be set within a certain
range in order to prevent any operating errors.
After resetting the temperature some time needs to pass before the desired temperature has been
achieved. Please check the interior temperature a few hours afterwards with an exact thermometer
and reset the thermostat if needed.
Depending on the surrounding temperature and humidity, the interior temperature is not to be set too
low as this could lead to icing on exposed areas of the cooling element. This will interfere with the
cooling performance and with the continuous defrosting which has been set by your specialized dealer
for a certain interval.
6.3. Manual defrosting
Defrosting can be started any time by pressing the UP - button for 3 seconds. During the process of

glass shelves and on the base trays. BRILLANT models; open at front; have a deep well with height
adjustable base trays.
The display case is designed to maintain the temperature of pre-chilled product.
This refrigerated unit is not a refrigerator, and consequently, if warm product is introduced,
there could be a considerable delay before the operating temperature falls to the normal
operating level.
7.2. Loading Restrictions
•It is important to leave adequate free space for the refrigerated air to circulate within the display
case.
• Product should be kept clear of the shaded areas, shown in the picture.
• A minimum clearance of 40 mm should be maintained below the light fittings and air baffle.
• The air louvers at the front and rear of the display case must not covered at all.
The presented goods are
refrigerated with cold air.
This air curtain is forced by
fans which suck the air via air
louvers at the front (1) into the
Evaporator (2).
In this area below the base
tray the air is chilled and blown
up through the louvers at the
rear (3) into the display case.
All these components are
designed to have an even
