PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION CAUTION Do not climb onto the unit or do not put articles on the unit. This may cause injury by tipping or damage to the unit. Put on dry gloves when you take out refrigerated articles from the freezer. contents or the inside walls with naked bands may cause frostbite. Handing frozen Do not defrost inside walls using a knife or ice pick. There are pipelines for cooling behind the walls. Be careful not to damage the lines as this could cause a breakdown.
CAUTIONS FOR USAGE 1. Sometimes the alarm may not operate at the time of first start-up. This does not mean malfunction. It is due to the complete discharge of incorporated battery. 2-day continuous operation of the freezer is necessary to charge the battery fully. 2. The digital thermometer of medical freezer is designed to display the temperature of the center part of the freezing compartment.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS This equipment is designed to be safe at least under the following conditions (based on the IEC 1010-1): 1. Indoor use; 2. Altitude up to 2000 m; 3. Ambient temperature 5oC to 40oC 4. Maximum relative humidity 80% for temperature up to 31oC decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40oC; 5. Mains supply voltage fluctuations not to exceed ±10% of the nominal voltage; 6. Other supply voltage fluctuations as stated by the manufacturer; 7.

By pressing this key, the alarm lamp is flashed, remote alarm is activated and buzzer sound. This means all alarm function operate correctly. 2. Buzzer stop key (BUZZER): To silence the audible alarm, press this key. The remote alarm is also silenced by pressing this key. (The buzzer cannot be stopped during remote alarm testing.) 3.
INSTALLATION Installation site To operate this unit properly and to obtain maximum performance, install the unit in a location with the following conditions: 1. A location not subjected to direct sunlight Installation in a location subjected to direct sunlight may lead to inadequate cooling. 2. A location with adequate ventilation Leave at least 10 cm around the unit for ventilation. Poor ventilation will result in a reduction of the refrigeration capacity.
INSTALLATION Installation 1. Remove the packaging materials and tapes Remove all transportation packaging materials and tapes. Open the doors and ventilate the unit. If the outside panels are dirty, clean them with a neutral detergent and wipe it up with a wet cloth. 2. Adjust the leveling feet Extend the leveling feet by rotating them counterclockwise to contact them to the floor. Ensure the unit is level. 3. Fix the unit Two fixtures are attached to the rear of the frame.
OPTIONAL COMPONENTS Temperature recorder WARNING Always disconnect the power supply to the unit prior to attachment of a temperature recorder in order to prevent electric shock or injury. An automatic temperature recorders is available for the freezer as the optional component. The type of the recorder is MTR-G85. For the attachment, the mounting kit is necessary.
OPTIONAL COMPONENTS Model MDF-U333: The recorder is located on the top of the freezer. 1. Attach the recorder to the mounting kit by following the procedure shown in the manual enclosed with the mounting kit. 2. Fix the recorder on the top of the freezer by using 4 screws provided with the mounting kit. 3. Remove 2 rubber caps (outside and inside) on the Access port access port on the back of the freezer and also remove the insulation in the port. 4.
OPTIONAL COMPONENTS Model MDF-U537: The recorder is located on the left lower front of the freezer. 1. Attach the recorder to the mounting kit by following the procedure shown in the manual enclosed with the mounting kit. 2. Remove the screw on the cover for the recorder space on the lower front of the freezer. Open the cover and push the shaft on the both sides outward to remove the cover. Fig. 5 3. Install the recorder in the recorder space. 4.
OPTIONAL COMPONENTS Model MDF-U537D: The recorder is located on the top of the unit and on the left lower front of the freezer because the upper and lower chamber is controlled independently. < Attachment of MTR-G85 on the top of the freezer > 1.

TEMPERATURE SETTING Chamber temperature Table 1 shows the basic procedure for setting the chamber temperature. Perform key operations in the sequence indicated in the table. The example in the table is based on the assumption that the desired temperature is -25oC. Note: The unit is set at the factory that the chamber temperature -30oC. Table 1. Chamber temperature -25oC) Basic operation sequence (Example: Description of operation Key operated 1 Connect the power plug to exclusive power supply socket.
TEMPERATURE SETTING Key lock function This unit is provided with the key lock function. When the key lock is ON, change of temperature setting through the key pad is not available. The key lock is set in OFF at the factory. Display Table 2.
TEMPERATURE SETTING Alarm temperature setting This unit is provided with both high and low temperature alarms. The temperature at which the alarm is activated may be changed. The available set range for high temperature alarm is between +5oC and +15oC, and -5oC and -15oC for low temperature alarm against the chamber temperature. Note: The temperature alarm is set at ±10oC of the set temperature at the factory.
ALARMS & SAFETY FUNCTIONS This unit has the alarms and safety functions shown in Table 5, and also self diagnostic functions. Table 5 Alarms and safety functions Alarm & Safety High temperature alarm Low temperature alarm Power failure alarm Auto-return Situation If the chamber temperature is higher than the temperature at which the high temperature alarm is activated. If the chamber temperature is lower than the temperature at which the low temperature alarm is activated. In the case of power failure.
SETTING OF ALARM RESUME TIME The alarm buzzer and remote alarm are silenced by pressing BUZZER key on the control panel during alarm condition. The buzzer and remote alarm will be activated again after certain suspension if the alarm condition is continued. The suspension time can be set by following the procedure shown in the Table 6 below. The example in the table is based on the assumption that the desired duration is 20 minutes. Note: The duration is set in 30 minutes at the factory. Table 6.
