6-2) Cool Air Circulation

•Cold air generated from the cooling system is distributed to the freezing compartment and the refrigerating compartment by the air circulation fan.

•In the freezing compartment, cold air is distributed to the compartment as well as to the shelves from the cold air exhaust port, food is frozen in the freezing compartment by cold air shower.

•Cold air that comes out of the freezing compartment is absorbed back to the lower part of the cooling system through the suction port on the median divider.

•In the refrigerating compartment, cold air is distributed to the duct cover through the median divider. Cold air supplied to the duct cover passes through the refrigerating compartment.

•After cooling the refrigerating compartment, cold air is absorbed to the lower part of the cooling system through the suction port on the median divider.

1.Temperature Control Part Design

	Freezer Temperature Controller	Refrigerator Temperature Controller

2. Temperature Control Function

1)Selecting Freezer Temperature

l Selecting¡ Quick cooling~Quick freezing¡–is possible with turning temperature control knob. l Controlled temperature of each temperature control knob position is as follows:

	Knob Position		Quick cooling						Normal			Quick Freezing
	Controlled		-16.0		-17.5			-19.0		-20.0			-21.0			-22.0
	Temperature
2)Selecting Refrigerator Temperature
	l Selecting ¤		~ ¤ is possible with turning temperature control knob.
	l Controled temperature of each temperature control knob position is as follows:
	Knob Position
	Controlled		7.5	6.0			4.5		3.0	2.0		1.0		0.0			-1.0
	Temperature

Caution) As this controller is by the ROTARY S/W, in case it is off the position, it is set to step 4 automatically.

3. Defrosting Function

1)Defrosting is decided by the accumulated time of comp on. 2)Defrosting proceeds in order of heating ¡ recess time.

3)The first defrosting function after the initial power on starts with 4 hours of accumulated time of comp on, and then it repeats its function at every 8th hour of comp on.

4)In the process, controlling of defrosting heater ON/OFF is done by EVA-SENSOR. When the quality of EVA-SENSOR is poor (short/open) defrosting will be terminated only after recess time function without heating.

5)In the process, comp and fan maintain ON condition, after defrosting heating it operates with 10 min. recess time.

6)defrosting heating point ON and OFF operates by EVA-SENSOR and each temperature is as follows:

4. Testing Function

l This function is for PCB and test of products, work process test, and SVC.

lAfter checking the product's function by selecting TEST S/W, let the self-diagnosis function start with the POWER OFF and ON.

1)Forced Starting Function

lCOMP and FAN starts immediately after the TEST S/W on the Main PCB is pressed once. So when the forced staring function is done right at the COMP OFF point, Over Load in the COMP may be caused. Extra caution is necessary.

lWhen forced starting function is selected, COMP and FAN run for 24 hours regardless of the freezer/refrigerator temperature and knob selection. Indicating Lamp on main PCB shows that it is a forced starting function by 0.5sec interval ON/OFF.

lWhen a selected forced starting function is selected and maintains for 24 hours, defrosting function starts its operation, and when defrosting is completed normal operation is carried out according to the temperature selection knob position.

lTo release it's operation during forced starting, power should be turned off and turned on again or test release mode on 3) below should be selected.

2)Forced Defrosting Function

l If test switch is pressed once more during forced starting function, it is released immediately and forced defrosting function starts, and the Lamp on main PCB shows that it's forced defrosting by 1.0 sec. interval ON/OFF.

lWhen forced defrosting is selected COMP and FAN is turned off immediately, and defrosting heater is turned on at the same time. At this moment if the sensed temperature of EVASENSOR is higher than -5.0¡ , defrosting heater is not turned ON and operates only for recess

time and returns to normal operation.

lWhen Heating is completed it recesses for 10 mints. and after that indicating Lamp remains ON and returns to normal operation.

3)Test Function Release Mode

If TEST S/W is pressed once more when forced defrosting function is carried out, forced defrosting is released and stops for 10 mints. and after that it returns to normal operation.
