3 Operation
The adjustable thermostat automatically controls the temperature
in the cabinet.
Adjusting the thermostat:
On most models the adjustable thermostat is located on the fan
house at the top inside the cabinet. See Figure 9.
On other models the adjustable thermostat is located on the
electrical panel at the bottom right of the cabinet. See Figure 10.
The thermostat should be rotated clockwise in order to reduce the
temperature.
The thermostat is set at a middle temperature. However the
temperature of the bottle cooler must be adjusted after set-up with
a good glass thermometer (max. inaccuracy +/- 1°C) placed in a
glass with e.g. glycerine and then fine-tuned, if required.
The location of the cabinet, the ambient temperature and the
number and length of doors greatly influence the temperature
inside the cabinet. The cabinet must therefore no be placed in
direct sunlight or up against surfaces that give off heat.
If your cabinet is fitted with locks, the keys to the cabinet should be
kept out of the reach of children. If your new cabinet is replacing a
worn-out cabinet of an older type, you should dismantle the locking
mechanism on the old cabinet before it is removed.
4 Storing food
Always make sure that you place the products so that air can
circulate freely and without restriction as otherwise
disproportionate differences between the temperatures at the top
and at the bottom of the cabinet may occur.
As the temperature inside the cabinet very much depends on the
conditions in the location where the cabinet is set up, it is
unfortunately not possible to give an exact setting for the
thermostat, but it is recommended that you adjust the thermostat
to your specific conditions.
See Figures 9 and 10.
5 De-icing the cabinet
Ice formation in the cabinet over time is a natural process, but
when the ice reaches a thickness of approx. 5-8 mm, the cabinet
should be de-iced. Model 366-368 de-icing is carried out manually.
The freezer is emptied of products and the plug disconnected from
the power source. The door should be kept open. The ice from the
tray evaporator will now melt. Putting rags at the bottom of the
cabinet is recommended to collect the melt water. The rags should
be wrung out when they are saturated with water. Finally, the
cabinet should be cleaned.
In models 390-394-400-404-460-462 the cooler is de-iced by the
de-icing water running through the drain at the bottom of the cooler
and out into the melt water container which is located on top of the
compressor. Melting takes places using the heat from the
compressor. See Figure 3 pos. nos. 16 & 17. In models 361-363-
601-603-801-803 de-icing takes place automatically every hour.
Ventilation inside the cooler is constant both during de-icing and
when the doors are open. Remember to keep the drain and the
drainpipe free of dirt. See Figure 11.
•
Place the products from the cabinet in a cold place or pack
them in insulating material.
• The cabinet should be switched off at the socket.
•
The door or doors should be kept open.
•
Loosen the ice layer using plastic or wooden implements
(never use metal implements).
• Using bowls of hot water can also speed up the de-icing
process.
• Never use pointed or sharp implements.
•
After de-icing, clean the cabinet as described under Section
6. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
6 Maintenance
Please note the following in connection with the cleaning of the
cabinet:
•
Place the products from the cabinet in a cold place or pack
them in insulating material.
•
The cabinet should be switched off at the socket.
•
The door or doors should be kept open.
•
The cabinet can be cleaned with lukewarm water and mild
detergent. It should then be washed with clean water.
Never use detergents that contain chlorine.
Never use pointed or sharp implements.
Clean the door in the same way as the cabinet.
If the cabinet has a condenser with a fan at the bottom of the
cabinet, dust and dirt may gather on the cooling element. If
cleaning is required, the power should be switched off, the front
cover removed and the cooling element vacuum-cleaned with a
soft brush. Cleaning is recommended once a week.
Remove the front cover as follows. Lift up the front cover by taking
hold on both outer sides, lift up and then pull the front cover away
from the cabinet.
The compressor and condenser are now readily accessible.
(cooling element)
Be aware that the cooling element consists of sharp components
and may be hot to the touch.
7 Troubleshooting
If you experience any problems with your cabinet, please check
the following before seeking assistance:
• Is the plug inserted?
•
Is the socket switched on?
