1. General
upon receipt of the refrigeration equipment, remove all external and internal packaging. Carefully inspect the unit for
evidence of transit damage or short shipment and inform the manufacturers or distribution company immediately in
writing, quoting machine serial number. Claims for faulty goods may not be subsequently considered if the above is
ignored.
If the unit is a replacement for an existing machine please remember that if it is the intention to scrap the redundant
item there is a legislative requirement to ensure that all cfc refrigerants are reclaimed and disposed of in a proper
manner. We would be pleased to offer advice on this.
2. SITING
Each unit is equipped with a complement of shelf supports, shelf slides and shelves as detailed in the product
specification. These items should be installed prior to use.
Ensure that the cabinet is sited on a level surface to enable correct drainage of condensate water from within the unit
and allow self closing mechanism on door assemblies to function. In the case of models fitted with castors, sited on
an uneven floor it may be necessary to fit adjustable legs to the equipment in order to make sure it is level. These
are available from the manufacture. Siting of the equipment is important if correct operation is to be achieved. Whilst
the equipment is designed to work in high ambient temperatures, adequate ventilation must be provided in order to
allow heat removal. Do not site refrigerators next to cooking equipment or within a continually bright sunlit position.
If the machine has laid flat during the installation process, allow to stand upright for a minimum period of 4 hours
before the equipment is switched on at the mains power supply. Machines supplied with castors incorporate a braking
mechanism. When the machine is sited in the chosen location apply the brake by activating the lever with your foot.
3. USER INSTRUCTIONS
Here are some general guides which will help to ensure trouble free operation of the equipment;
Do not: put hot or steaming food into the equipment.
Do not: overload the cabinet.
Do not: block air flow ducts.
Do not: leave cabinet doors open for longer than necessary.
Do not: use sharp instruments for removing ice/food residue.
4. INSTALLATION
When the above factors have been completed the machine may be connected to a 13 amp 230 volt earthed socket,
which should be accessible for isolation of the equipment.
It is recommended that the equipment is protected by an RCCB installed to current IEE regulations. If in any doubt
consult a qualified electrician.
All products are subject to an electrical safety test (PAT) during manufacture. There is a test certificate fixed to the
rear of each machine. Upon switching on, a green indicator will illuminate in the control panel indicating power on.
The temperature display will also illuminate, it will indicate the internal air temperature of the cabinet. There is a built
in time delay of approximately 2 minutes before the compressor starts. When cooling action commences the display
will indicate a gradual fall in the internal temperature until the machines reaches the correct operating condition. The
machine should be allowed to cool to the specified temperature without door openings during this period. Only when
the machine is at the correct temperature, should food which is itself at, or close to the correct storage temperature,
be introduced into the unit.
5. USER MAINTENANCE
Switch off and unplug during maintenance operations. Do not perform cleaning operations with food/consumables in
the unit.
Do not attempt to remove any protective covers.
Warm soapy water is suitable cleaning solution for both internal and external finishes. Occasionally apply a
proprietary stainless polish to the external stainless steel surfaces.
Do not use abrasive cleaning materials or those containing bleach as these can effect the surface appearance of the
machine.
During cleaning operations check the condition of the door seal as it can be damaged through use and ineffective. If
signs of damage are evident , replace the seal by pulling it out of the retaining section in the door and simply push
replacement seal into place. Ensure grilles and condenser fins remain unobstructed and free from particles at all times.
A stiff brush or preferably a vacuum cleaner can be used. Remember to switch on machine after cleaning
operation is complete.
