1.0 — General Information and Installation 1.1 INTRODUCTION 1.4 EQUIPMENT SUPPLIED The Alto-Shaam® Quickchiller is a processing refrigeration system designed to rapidly and uniformly cool hot foods through the "chilling danger zone" of 140° to 40°F (60° to 4°C) in two hours or less. Fast cooling minimizes microbial activity, thereby controlling quality and sanitation in prepared foods. As a result, a five-day storage life is achieved.

1.0 — General Information and Installation 1.5 RECEIPT AND UNPACKING Upon receipt of the Alto-Shaam ® Quickchiller, note any crate markings for special instructions and check for crate damage. IMMEDIATELY notify the carrier if there appears to be damage to the equipment. The chiller is shipped from the factory, securely fastened to a single shipping pallet and protected by an external wrapping. Carefully remove all external wrappings and other protective coverings.
1.0 — General Information and Installation 1.6.6 ELECTRICAL: The Quickchiller must be installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance must be branch circuit protected with proper ampacities in accordance with the wiring diagram located in this manual. In the U.S.A., the chiller must be properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes.
2.0 — Control Set-Up and Operation 2.1 START-UP PROCEDURES remains in the display longer than 60 seconds, the locked control panel cover must be opened and the yellow reset button pressed ONCE. Relock the control panel and enter the correct password to gain access to the User Setting Menu screen. 2.1.1 Place the branch circuit breaker (main panel) in the ON position. Then place the Quickchiller circuit breaker in the ON position. 2.1.2 The Main Menu screen must appear on the Control display (see figure 2.

2.0 — Control Set-Up and Operation CONTROL MODE OVERVIEW Ta b le 2.4.1 Mode Operation Description Auto Chill Refrigeration is controlled only by the food probe(s). Refrigeration continues until all food probes achieve chill setpoint temperature, whereupon the control automatically enters HOLD Mode. Timed Chill Refrigeration is controlled by chill time entered and the cabinet air sensor. While chilling, the cabinet air temperature may become exces-sively cold prior to chill time expiration.
2.0 — Control Set-Up and Operation 2.5 MAIN MENU The main menu is the starting point for all functions of the Quickchiller. This includes starting the hold, defrost, and chill cycles; report printing; and changing the system configuration. 2.5.2 Open Door If the door is opened while the chiller is in the hold mode, a buzzer will sound and a warning message will appear in the display. DOOR OPEN WARNING SCREEN There are four main options shown on the main menu screen.
2.0 — Control Set-Up and Operation 2 . 6 OPERATION WITH FOOD PRODUCT Stage 1: Stage 4: Prior to introducing product to the cabinet, the unit should be operated in the timed chill mode for thirty minutes. This procedure will reduce the temperature of the interior components and the cabinet air sufficiently to be able to accept hot food products. Upon satisfaction of the Chill Mode selected, the system will revert to the hold mode.

5.0 — Cleaning & Maintenance 5 . 1 INTRODUCTION To insure trouble free operation and the highest level of sanitation control, periodic cleaning and maintenance is required. The maintenance system should be aimed at maximizing the efficient utilization of maintenance personnel, minimizing down time, and providing the orderly acquisition of spare parts for support. If already established at the location site, perform scheduled maintenance in accordance with the standards in the Maintenance Index Plan.
5.0 — Cleaning & Maintenance 5.6 MONTHLY COMPRESSOR AND CONDENSER MAINTENANCE 5.5 EVAPORATOR CONDENSATE DRAIN HOSE INSPECTION AND CLEANING 1. Every 4-6 months, the evaporator coil and condensate drain hose should be inspected for blockage due to spilled food and sauces which can accumulate about the base of the coil and clog the entrance to the drain hose. Keep the condenser coils free of dust and debris to insure proper air circulation and cooling of the refrigeration system. 1.

4.0 — Diagnostic and Repair Procedure — CONTROL 4.1 INTRODUCTION 4.2.1 SOLENOID CHECK: The relays, which control the compressors, fans, solenoids, and heaters, can be individually controlled by the microprocessor control set in a manual mode. The following test will verify that these components are being controlled and will verify the operational integrity of the relays and fuse sets. 4.2 Press button 1 and button 2 on the numeric keyboard several times.
4.0 — Diagnostic and Repair Procedure — CONTROL 4 .3 CONDENSING UNITS The condensing units operate only when the system is in a cooling mode and the food storage compartment requires a decrease in temperature. If it appears the condensing units are not functioning properly and the General Diagnostic Procedure (4.2.4) on the preceding page was unable to pinpoint the specific cause, the following steps should be taken for further diagnosis.
4.5 TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDELINES - CONTROL PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE Alphanumeric display is blank. If power is connected to the unit and the main circuit breaker is on, the display on the control should be illuminated with a green tinged background. Control needs to be reset. Unresponsive control. If the control does not respond to operator key presses or the screen on the display appears frozen or sluggish. Control needs to be reset. Power failure threshold is set too low. Control board is faulty.
