Cleaning and Maintenance

Important: Before cleaning, the unit should be put into standby and then the power supply
should be turned off at the mains. Please do not plug or unplug the unit with wet hands.
Only when cleaning has been completed and the unit is dry should the cabinet be turned
back on at the mains.
Regular Maintenance:
>
As and when required remove all product and shelving (beware of cold and or sharp
components) from the unit. Clean exterior and interior surfaces with mild liquid detergent,
following the directions on the pack at all times. Rinse surfaces with a damp cloth
containing clean water. Never use wire wool, scouring pads/powders or high alkaline
cleaning agents i.e bleaches, acids and chlorines as these may cause damage. Dry the
unit thourghly before re-using.
>
Clean the condenser at least once a month (it is located behind the unitcover; beware of
hot and possible sharp components). Remove the unit cover securing screw(s) positioned
underneath the front of the unitcover. Then lift up the cover to access the condenser coil.
Once the cover is removed please do not leave the unit unattended. Use a soft brush
or vacuum cleaner to remove dirt/dust. If there are any stubborn grease deposits left on
or through the condenser call your supplier to carry out a full service (this is normally
chargeable). Failure to maintain the condenser may invalidate the warranty of the
condensing unit and cause premature failure of the motor/compressor. DO NOT use a
wire brush to clean the condenser. Re-fit any panels removed after cleaning.
>
Door gaskets should be inspected on a regular basis and replaced if damaged. To
clean, wipe with a warm damp soapy cloth followed by a clean damp cloth. Finally
thoroughly dry before closing the door.
>
Shelves, Pans, their supports and trolleys should be removed to clean. The shelves
and pans are dishwasher safe; however the supports should be cleaned with warm soapy
water then rinsed and dried. Trolleys should be cleaned down with warm soapy water and
dried thoroughly before use.

Troubleshooting

>
Vapouriser Tray Overflowing – This normally happens due to the cabinet being run for
a prolonged length of time without being allowed to go into 'Hold' and or 'Defrost' mode.
If the cabinet is not allowed to perform these functions after carrying out each chill cycle
then the water collected will not disperse and result in an overflow.
Alarms - Each alarm that is displayed should be self-explanatory however by pressing
>
the information icon will provide further details as to the cause and necessary action
required.
Before calling your supplier please make sure that:
a) The plug has not come out of the socket and the mains power supply is on i.e. is the
controller illuminated?
b) Check to see if the unit is in standby
c) The fuse for the cabinet is intact
d) The cabinet is positioned correctly – cold or warm air sources are not affecting the
performance
e) The condenser is neither blocked nor dirty
f) The products are placed in the unit correctly
g) Defrost is not in progress or required
If the reason for the malfunction cannot be identified, disconnect the electrical supply to the unit
and contact your supplier. When requesting a service call, please quote the model and serial
number which can be found on the silver label located on the inside of the unit (starts E.......).
