Warning: Never load the unit excessively. Never stand on the cabinet.
Warning: Never try to remove any ice that may build up with sharp metal objects.
Warning: The refrigerating circuit does not cause any chemical modification of the water generated from defrosting. This
comes exclusively from the steam contained in the air circulating inside the unit. In any case, this water should always be
disposed of down the drain 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 cannot be held liable for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect or unreasonable use.
Warning: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit (IEC60335-2-89 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 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.
Warning: Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
9 - Defrosting of the unit and evaporation of condensation water
The defrost cycle, which is indispensable for proper operation of the refrigerated cabinet, is under the control of the
electronic device, that temporarily stops the compressor and allows the evaporator to eliminate any accumulated ice (this
operation can be simplified by introducing armored heating elements that help the ice on the evaporator to melt when the
defrost cycle is on. These heating elements are optional and are supplied on request. The number of defrost cycles
(standard is 3 cycles every 24 hours) is set in the factory. Check periodically to make sure the cabinets are defrosted
automatically and in case of any malfunction call an expert.
The 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 and changes).
10 - Cleaning the unit
Warning: Unplug at the mains before cleaning.
Clean the unit on a regular basis with neutral soap and then dry with a soft cloth. Never use flammable 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: Only plug the unit back in 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 at the mains before servicing.
Warning: Other maintenance operations, (not described herein) including replacement of lamps with lamps of the same
model, have to be commissioned to authorised centres of assistance or qualified personnel.
Clean the condenser once a month by removing the protection grid (see FIG. 16). 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 these. Always wear gloves that protect your hands against accidental cuts. Fix back in place all protections 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 could become covered with ice after long periods of use, thus preventing the unit from working at full
efficiency. Generally clean the cabinet every three months: unplug and empty completely. Wait for any ice in the
evaporator fins in the top section to melt away 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 getting 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 there is not a black-out.
-
Check the unit is plugged in properly.
-
Check the switch fitted above the plug (if any) is flipped.
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 doesn't 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.
