Important safety instructions propellant in this appliance. • This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. • Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
Safeguarding the environment and shelves so that children cannot easily climb inside and become trapped. Scrap the appliance in compliance with local regulations on waste disposal, taking it to a special collection centre; do not leave the appliance unattended even for a few days, since it is a potential source of danger for children.
Energy-saving tips • Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room far away from any heat source (e.g. radiator, cooker, etc.) and in a place not exposed directly to the sun. If required, use an insulating plate. • To guarantee adequate ventilation follow installation instructions. • Insufficient ventilation on back of the product increases energy consumption and decreases cooling efficiency. • Do not obstruct the fan (if available) with food items.
Foreword The blast chiller is an appliance derived from the professional sector intended for food blast chilling, rapid freezing and rapid cooling of beverages. The products, cooked and rapidly cooled with the blast chiller, retain their original high quality for 5/7 days while rapidly frozen food, once defrosted, do not collapse and maintain their consistency and their original flavor.
NOTIONS ON POSSIBLE OPERATION MODES Operation with “core probe” The core probe is a device that is housed on a grid included in the supply and serves for detecting the temperature at the center of the products to be cooled or frozen rapidly. When the sensor detects that the temperature at the center of the product has reached a temperature of + 3°C (rapid blasting) or -18°C (rapid freezing), the blast chiller goes into storage mode.
Notions on air probe The air probe (not accessible, not visible and that cannot be changed by the user) constantly monitors the temperature of the air inside the chamber. This serves to: • carry out security checks • maintain a constant air temperature in the chamber during the “storage mode” after the blast chilling and rapid freezing cycles. Containers and lids It is recommended to use trays and containers the less deep possible, in any case not exceeding 65 mm.
Control panel 1. ON/OFF button, turn on and off the blast chiller 2. Select the rapid freezing cycle with a preset duration of 270 minutes. 3. Symbol indicating the “on time” operation mode. 4. Display of the type of cycle selected (SoF = Soft / HAR = Hard / FrE = Freezing). Displaying of the remaining time if the cycle is in “time” mode. Displaying of the time elapsed if the cycle is in “core probe” mode. Displaying of the time elapsed from the beginning of the storage cycle. 5.
Operation Switching on The first time the appliance is connected to the mains, it performs a test by flashing 3 times all the symbols and display. Subsequently only the button remains on and the lower door opens and closes. At this point, the blast chiller is in “standby”. Pressing and holding the button followed by a beep, sets the blast chiller from “standby” to the “ready”, displaying the “Soft” cycle by default.
- “Soft” rapid blasting (+ 3°C) - “Hard” rapid blasting (+ 3°C) - rapid freezing (-18°C) - drinks cooling (“Soft” cycle) 12
Drinks rapid cooling With the machine running, and in “ready” mode, press the button. The button lights fixed and the display 4 shows “SoF” while the display 5 shows the number 3 (3 = 3°C). After 10/15 minutes, STOP THE CYCLE MANUALLY by holding down the button. The blast chiller will return in “ready” status and at that point it is possible to remove the chilled drinks. Cycles starting Make sure that the appliance door is firmly closed and then press the button to start the desired cycle.
Routine maintenance The information and instructions in this chapter is intended to all personnel who work on the machine: the user and the maintainer. BASIC SAFETY RULES To carry out cleaning and maintenance in safety, refer to the following rules: • disconnect the machine from the power supply without pulling the power cord; • do not touch the machine with bare, damp or wet hands or feet; • do not insert screwdrivers, kitchen utensils or anything else between the guards and moving parts.
Important! DO NOT drain more water than what is formed during defrosting. Subsequent cleaning must be performed with the drain closed. In order to ensure hygiene and protection of the quality of food products treated, the cell inside must be cleaned at the end of defrosting. The shape of the cell, and of the internal parts, allow washing, it is recommended to use a soft cloth or sponge and mild detergent.
This periodical operation can be performed using a soft brush, by performing a vertical movement on the fins of the evaporator. If there are greasy deposits, use a brush soaked in alcohol. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE Malfunction Important! In case of malfunction before calling the Dealer for service, check that the power cord has been perfectly inserted in the socket. Make sure that there is electricity.
TRANSPORT AND HANDLING The loading and unloading of the appliance from the transport vehicle must be made with suitable equipment (fig. 9) Important! For the appliance handling it is necessary to take all the necessary precautions to avoid damaging it and to avoid damage to persons or property, respecting the instructions placed on the packaging. Fig. 9 UNPACKING Cut with scissors the two plastic ties that lock the cardboard to the wooden base. Remove the cardboard lifting it upwards (fig.
Installation The appliance must be installed and tested in full compliance with the accident prevention laws and regulations, of the traditional and current regulations. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Before installing the blast chiller, make sure that the existing electrical systems are in compliance with the law and suitable to the data of the rating plate of the appliances to be installed (V, kW, Hz and power available). The appliance is supplied with a 2.50 m long power cord with a 16A Schuko plug.
For fastening the blast chiller in the cabinet, open the door and lift the lower door to access the lateral mounting holes. Use the 4 screws provided (fig. 12) Important! In choosing the place of location, also make sure that there is enough space for opening the main door and lower door. Important! The power cable is 2.5 meters long and for problems related to overheating it is not possible to use extension cords or cables to lengthen it.
