Oscartielle SATURNO Mode D'emploi page 18

Warning: The refrigerating circuit does not cause any chemical modification of the water generated from defrosting.
This comes exclusively from the vapour contained in the air circulating inside the unit. In any case, this water should
always be drained into the sewer or sent to a water purification plant in line with current local regulations.
Warning: Any use of the unit not explicitly mentioned in this manual should be considered dangerous and the
Manufacturer is not liable for any damage resulting from improper, careless or unreasonable use.
Warning: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit (IEC60335-2-89:2002 and changes)
Warning: Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance, unless they are of
the type recommended by the manufacturer (IEC60335-2-89:2002 and changes)
Warning: This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Warning: Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
9 - Defrosting of the unit and evaporation of any condensation
The defrosting cycle is indispensable for the refrigerating display unit to work properly. It is controlled by a mechanical
thermostat that temporarily stops the compressor and allows the evaporator to eliminate any accumulated ice. The
number of defrosting cycles (normally 4 every 24 hours) is set in the factory. Regularly check the efficiency of the
automatic defrosting cycle; if there are problems, call an expert.
SATURNO display units have an automatic evaporation system for defrosting water. It is a good idea to check the
level of the evaporating basin in the motor compartment at least once a month (with the unit switched off).
Warning: Only authorised service personnel are allowed to adjust or modify the unit.
Warning: Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance, unless they are of
the type recommended by the manufacturer (IEC60335-2-89:2002 and changes)
10 - Cleaning the unit
Important: Unplug from the mains before cleaning.
Clean the unit regularly with neutral soap and dry with a soft cloth. Never use inflammable or abrasive products. Never
clean the unit with direct jets of water. When cleaning the inside of the unit, always wear protective gloves to avoid
touching the cold parts.
Warning: Start the unit again only after checking that all parts (extracted or otherwise) are dry. Reload the unit
following the instructions in point 7.
11 - Unit maintenance
Warning: All maintenance operations should be carried out by expert personnel.
Warning: Unplug from the mains before servicing.
Warning: Any maintenance operations not described below (including the replacement of fluorescent lights) should be
carried out by authorised service centres or authorised personnel.
Clean the condenser once a month after removing the protection grid (see FIG. 16 on page 4). Use a stiff bristle brush
(not metallic) or a vacuum cleaner to remove all traces of dust and waste that may have built up between the fins,
taking care not to damage them. Always wear gloves that protect your hands against accidental cuts. Fasten all
casings in place after cleaning. Letting the condenser run for long periods without cleaning it means higher energy
consumption and lower overall performance of the unit!
The evaporator may be covered with ice after long periods of use, thus preventing the unit from working at full
efficiency. Generally, you should clean the cabinet every three months: unplug and empty completely. Wait for any ice
in the evaporator fins in the top section to melt and then carefully clean with a soft bristle brush. Again, always wear
protective gloves to avoid cutting your hands. Before plugging the unit in again, always check that all internal parts are
completely dry.
We recommend having the unit serviced once a year by a refrigerator expert or qualified personnel.
12 - Emergencies
Warning: If the unit stops or does not start:
- Check for a possible power outage.
- Check that the unit is plugged in properly.
- Check that the switch fitted above the plug (if any) is on.
If the problem persists despite the above checks, contact your nearest service centre and empty the unit (placing the
products in suitable storage cells to avoid breaking the cold chain).
Warning: If the unit does not cool the products enough:
- Check that the condenser is clean and capable of exchanging the heat; otherwise, see point 11.
- Check that the unit has been loaded properly and that the air intake is not blocked; otherwise, see point 7.
- Check that the unit evaporator is not covered with ice; otherwise, see point 11.
- Check that the unit is not close to strong air flows or heat sources (see point 4).
- Check that the unit is levelled and that the environmental conditions meet those indicated in point 4.
If the problem persists despite the above checks, contact your nearest service centre.
