6. PRODUCT LOADING AND STORAGE
Start-up
• Clean the interior surface with a soft cloth and warm water before loading.
• Position top and bottom shelves at marked locations to maintain correct air flow in unit.
• Recommend placement of product on centre of shelves or evenly distributed on shelfs with
minimum 30mm air gap between containers or use of perforated baskets.
• Never stack containers and do not load unit excessively whereby air flow across the cabinet is
restricted.
• Do not load product above the top shelf load line marked on the side of the cabinet.
• Do not block the evaporator fan.
• Use cold mass (i.e. 300ml saline water bottles) on unused shelves and ensure containers are
separated by 30mm on all sides. This is essential for maintaining correct storage temperature
during door openings.
• Avoid partial shelf loading, use cold mass on unused space
• Use cold mass (i.e. water bottle) on unused shelves.
• Keep refrigerator door openings to a minimum. Limit door opening durations to less than
30seconds. Wait 10 minutes for product and cabinet temperature to stabilise before opening
door again.
• Ensure products and materials are between 2 and 8°C before loading – if there is a breach in the

Extended Defrosting
The evaporator (cooling) coil of the refrigerator may build up a layer of ice over time. This will
reduce the performance of the unit – inspect the evaporator coil for ice build-up regularly.
For extended defrosting, turn o the unit with the door opened for a period of 24 hours.
Condenser Coil
IMPORTANT: The condenser coil must be cleaned with a vacuum or brush once a
month. The condenser coil must be cleaned regularly to maintain the performance
and minimise power consumption. A poorly maintained condenser coil can lead to
failure of the unit and cabinet temperatures above 8°C.
7. MAINTENANCE

9. ENVIRONMENTAL AND DISPOSAL NOTES
These refrigerated cabinets are designed to high standards of environmental protection and
recycling convenience. Cyclopentane, an environmentally friendly foaming agent, has been
used. Cyclopentane is distinguished by zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and zero global
warming potential (GWP). The refrigerant used and contained within a hermetically tight
circuit is environmentally friendly and does not contain chlorine and zero ODP.
The device must be disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations. The WEEE
regulations must be observed.
In the interest of preventing environmental nuisance and promoting re-use of the high quality
materials employed, used commercial refrigeration equipment must be collected for expert
disposal and recycling. Therefore, observe the following disposal regulations:
• The cabinet must not be discarded with regular waste.
• The refrigeration circuit must not be damaged.
• Before disposal, make it unserviceable by disconnecting the power plug and cutting o
the power cable.
• Consult your local authorities or authorised dealers for details of collection and disposal
facilities.
• Children are often unable to recognise the dangers associated with commercial
refrigeration equipment. Proper supervision must be maintained and children must be
prevented from playing with discarded refrigerated cabinets.
