THE SAME CONDITION IS VALID FOR ANY OTHER REPAIRS!!! 7. If there are heaters, their voltage has to be chosen in such a way that if there is a breakdown of GC201 or of an external contactor and they are switched off permanently, there will be no possibility of fire or destruction of the appliance.
GC201 should be chosen through experimentation. It is absolutely forbidden to change the location or the method of fixing of sensors and settings of GC201 without doing new tests related to temperature stabilisation and to the course of defrosting of the unit!!! The chamber sensor must be fixed in such a way that it does not touch foods and is not exposed to damage during cleaning of the unit.
When is pressed, settings are memorised and normal operation of the controller follows. If GC201 is switched off during programming, it will not memorise the new value of temperature. 4. Signalling of compressor operation When the compressor is on, small red diode (dot) in the right bottom corner of temperature display is on. This facilitates checking of possible defects of the system.
30 seconds is checked again. This is to protect the compressor against unneeded switching on caused by e.g. placement of goods, drafts, etc. From the moment when the compressor is switched off for time defined by parameter ‘c2’, GC201 will prevent compressor from switching on.
If defrosting take place and parameter r2=0 and temperature on evaporator is lower than temperature set in parameter ‘d2’ than GC201 will turn on the defrost mode and after reaching the temperature from the parameter 'd2' will enter the end of defrosting procedure (this state is signaled by...
