OPTIMISING THE WORK CYCLES.

Below are suggestions for optimising the work cycles:

• PRECOOLING:

Before performing a blast chill or deep freeze cycle, it is indispensable to precool the chamber

in order to reduce operating times.

• NEEDLE PROBE:

The probe must be positioned properly at the product core and in the thickest part. The point

must never go all the way through or touch the pan. The probe must be cleaned before each new cycle in order

to avoid contamination.

• LIDS AND CONTAINERS: Do n

ot cover the trays and/or containers with lids or insulating films. The more

contact the surface of the product has with the air circulating through the chamber, the quicker the blast chill

and deep freeze cycle will be. Trays or containers with a depth of more than 40 mm are greatly discouraged.

• PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION:

Never overlap the product and make sure that they are not more than 50 mm

thick which would prolong the blast chill and deep freeze time. Do not overload the machine beyond the load

established by the manufacturer.

• SPACE BETWEEN SHELVES: Keep enough space

between the trays to allow adequate air circulation. Avoid

concentrating the trays in one part of the machine. Space them uniformly.

• STORAGE:

At the end of the cycle, the blast chilled and/or deep frozen product must be covered and protected

(film, vacuum packing, hermetic lid). If the product was simply blast chilled, it must be stored at a constant

temperature in a refrigerator. If it was deep frozen it must be stored at a constant temperature in a freezer.

Mark the container that holds the blast chilled/frozen product with the contents and expiration date.

The blast chiller is not a refrigerator/freezer.

Once the work cycle is complete,

the blast chiller automatically switches to storage mode, which is understood to be

a temporary or transition period. At the end of the cycle, the product must then be stored in a refrigerator/freezer.

WARNINGS

Read the safety precautions and warnings in the beginning of the manual. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damages

caused by incorrect operations or any improper use of the

machine according to what is specified in this instruction manual. It is essential to remember some basic operations before cleaning:

• Disconnect the machine from the mains by turning of the main switch and unplugging.

• Use protective gloves.

• Do not insert tools, screwdrivers, or any other object between moving parts or protections.

• Do not make holes in pipes or hoses or open gas valves.

• Do not pull on the power cord.

• Do not remove protections and safety devices when performing routine maintenance operations.

• ATTENTION:

it is important to keep the control panel clean in order to ensure its proper operation.

Clean the controller frequently using dry or damp non-abrasive cloths.

INTERNAL CLEANING

The inside of the machine must be cleaned before and after each work cycle

in order to prevent the

development of germs, bacteria, viruses, foul odours and anything else that could compromise the quality of the food products.

The machine must be cleaned with degreasing and disinfectant products used in the kitchen and not using steel

wool, abrasive sponges, solvents and other products that can corrode or scratch the surface.

To summarise, the machine must be clean when used and must be left clean after use.

The tray holders can be easily removed to clean and replaced after having been washed. It is important to rinse thoroughly the entire inside of the machine and the inside of the door. Do not scrape with pointed objects, especially the cold generator. Leave the door ajar so air circulates inside the chamber, preventing the formation of mould and foul odours.

Avoid getting table salt on the surfaces of the blast chiller. If this should occur, clean immediately.

EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE

Extraordinary maintenance can only be performed by specialised personnel who are authorised to work on electrical

parts or refrigerator parts. The following ch

apter includes a table with instructions and suggestions for

troubleshooting any failures or problems.

For technical assistance, contact our dealers with the blast chiller model and serial number indicated on the data

plate on the left side of the machine. Original parts can only be found at our technical assistance centres.
