Placement of your refrigeration equipment

For a failure-free usage of cooler or freezer, the following points should be considered when deciding where to place it:

Do not place the chiller outside or directly exposed to incoming sunlight, too close to a source of heat or in a hot area

Do not place an (open) cooler in the draft of an air-conditioning system, a ventilation system or near open doors

• Make sure there is enough room around the suction grid and outlet grid for optimal ventilation of the cooling unit.

maintenance

Regular maintenance is required in order to ensure high-level technical performance of the cooler and to guarantee a long lifespan of the devices. Specific information with regard to necessary and recommended maintenance is mentioned in the users guide:

1. Cleaning of the cooling installation every three months is required in order to enable claims under the warrantee.
2. When carrying out maintenance work, the device should always be dead' (no current).
3. Maintenance work should be carried out regularly. We advice you to put a staff member in charge of this.
4. Remove the front and clean the condenser with a vacuum cleaner or a brush, from the top to the bottom. BE CAREFUL, the bars are sharp! Do this at least once every three months.
5. Do not use sharp objects when cleaning.
6. Clean the inside of the device with cotton cloths and/or neutral detergents; never use abrasives.
7. Never clean the device with a water jet or high-pressure sprayer.
8. Clean the drainage and the drip tray of the cooling installation in order to prevent water damage.
9. Clean the rubber door strips with a damp cloth.
10. Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to clean the vaporizer and/or air conduction bulkheads. BE CAREFUL, the bars are sharp! Please refer to the users guide for instructions.
11. Technical maintenance and repair of the cooling installation may only be carried out by a people qualified to do so.

Daily control

In order to prevent problems and to obtain the most energy effective use of the cooling installation, we advice the following actions:

1. Keep doors (cabinets and cold rooms) closed as much as possible.
2. Never load products above the load line.
3. Regularly check the temperature.
4. Defrost for an extra long time in case of excessive ice formation.

Failures

In case of a problem you can check the following points:

1. Is the power supply okay? If necessary replace fuses. When doing so, always make sure the main switch is turned off.
2. Is the plug in the power socket?
3. Is the cooler in a defrost cycle? Check the user's guide.
4. Is the condenser free of dirt?
5. Is the drainage free, no blockage and/or dirt accumulation?
6. Has the load line been exceeded causing blockage of the suction grid and/or outlet grid?
