REGULAR MAINTENANCE
WARNINGS
Regular maintenance work can be carried out by non-specialised personnel who, however, must always
adhere to the instructions given in this manual. Before cleaning or servicing the chiller lock-off the power
supply. When carrying out regular maintenance work do not remove any of the safety guards.
CLEANING THE CHILLER AND ACCESSORIES
Before using this Chiller clean on the inside and all the accessories. Use warm water and neutral soap.
Rinse and dry well. Do not use solvent or powder based detergents and use a silicon wax to protect the
steel.
PERIODICALLY CLEANING THE CONDENSER
The condenser should be cleaned periodically. Cleaning intervals will depend on how frequently it is
used.
MEASURES TO TAKE WHEN OUT OF SERVICE FOR A PERIOD OF TIME
When the Chiller is out of service for a long period of time take the following measures:
• Remove the plug from the power socket;
• Remove all food and clean the inside of the Chiller and all accessories;
• Buff all the stainless steel surfaces with a cloth moistened with vaseline oil to give a protective
coating;
• Leave the door ajar for air circulation to prevent bad odours;
• Periodically air the room or kitchen where the Chiller is installed.
CAUTION: To access the condenser (please refer to page 16 in the spare parts catalogue) it is
necessary to remove the safety guards. Always use qualified and specialised personnel.
To guarantee efficiency and performance in time, it is necessary to clean the condenser periodical-
ly. It is highly recommended if located in dusty environments to clean the louvers on the refrigerat-
ing unit once a month and once every three months if located in closed and clean environments. To
remove dust and dirt from the louvers use a brush or vacuum cleaner. Do not use sharp objects or
tools that could damage the condenser. Do not clean using water jets.

EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE
UNDERSTANDING SIMPLE MALFUNCTIONS
At times malfunctions are due to simple and trivial causes and nearly always there is no need to call in
a specialised technician, therefore before informing the company check for the following:
The Chiller is not powered:
a. Check that it is plugged in;
b. Check that there is power.
The Chiller does not reach the correct internal temperature:
a. Check the temperature settings;
b. Check the probe.
The Chiller is excessively noisy:
a. Check that the Chiller is level. If unbalanced this could cause vibrations creating excessive
noise.
b. Check that the Chiller is not positioned up against other machines or objects causing vibra-
tions.
After having proceeded with the foregoing checks and if the problem persists, contact the company giv-
ing:
- A description of the type of malfunction;
- Chiller code and serial number which are indicated on the metal plate.
WASTE DISPOSAL AND SCRAPPING
Storing waste:
It is possible to temporarily store special waste products that are to be scrapped. However, the user must
observe and adhere to the local governing laws regarding waste management.
Macro – dismantling the Chiller:
Each country has its own waste management laws, therefore the user must observe and adhere to the
local governing laws where the Chiller is to be scrapped.
As a general guideline the Chiller should be handed over to a special waste treatment plant. Dismantle
it and divide the various components into groups according to their chemical properties. Remember that
there is oil and refrigerating solutions in the condenser that can be recuperated and reused and the var-
ious components are considered special waste products and as such are treated as urban waste.
CAUTION: All dismantling operations must be carried out by specialised personnel!
CAUTION: Extraordinary maintenance and servicing work must be carried out be qualified personnel!

INSTALLATION
Carefully follow and adhere to the instructions given in this chapter to guarantee working efficiency and
safety when the Chiller is in use.
LOCATION
Locate the Chiller in a ventilated area distant from heat sources such as radiators, air conditioning units,
deep-fryers and ovens.
Make sure the Chiller is located at a distance not less than 10 cm from the back wall to permit a good
cooling effect for the various components.
To maintain the correct internal temperature, the ambient temperature must not exceed +32°C
Adjust height and levelling using the support feet and also check the door closes. If the Chiller is not per-
fectly level working efficiency and condensation flow may be affected.
Remove the PVC protective film on both sides of the Chiller.
CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
The T3 Chiller works off single-phase tension 230V- 50Hz.
To connect to the power supply, simply plug the power cable in the power socket or connect the Chiller
to the electrical panel, however before connecting check that:
- The socket is earthed and frequency and tension correspond to the information given on the
metal plate. If in doubt about earthing, call in a qualified electrician to check wiring.
- A suitable thermomagnetic switch must be provided between the power cable and electricity
line with at least a 3 mm break contact.
- when the Chiller is connected to the mains check that the supply tension, with the Chiller work-
ing, does not exceed or go under the rated tension by +/- 10%.
CAUTION: the manufacturer shall not be held responsible for damage or accidents caused by
negligence due to the non-observance of the recommendations and regulations given or of the local
governing standards and laws regarding electrical safety.
CAUTION: When transporting or moving the Chiller to the installation site do not push or drag it, lift
it and position it on a trolley to avoid overturning.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CORRECT USE
Before using the Chiller remove all traces of glue using a detergent as there might be traces of conden-
sate due to final testing in the factory.
Chiller efficiency when chilling and freezing depends on the following factors:
Type of containers to use:
We recommend you use pans (or containers with sides no greater than 65 mm in height) to permit an
effective air circulation (the food product should be exposed to the air circulation as much as possible to
reduce chilling times ). To avoid the food being contaminated, we recommend you carefully clean all con-
tainers and trays. We also recommend you keep the food in the same cooking pan when chilling.
Using covers:
Do not cover the food when chilling or freezing. Only once the chilling and freezing cycles have been
completed or before storage can you cover or pack the food.
7

CYCLES
BLAST CHILLING
The blast chilling cycle rapidly lowers the temperature of the food to a minimum of +3 °C.
Blast chilling is for food that will be consumed within a few days.
BLAST FREEZING
Blast freezing is for storing food for longer periods of time. When blast freezing the water content in the
food is micro crystallized so when defrosting the food is not altered in any way maintaining both its
appearance and nutritional value. When freezing the food core temperature reaches –18°C.
STORAGE
The Chiller has a storage cycle, in other words it maintains a set temperature, which is automatically acti-
vated when the chilling or freezing cycles have been completed. This storage is continuous and to stop
the program simply press the (ON-OFF) button.
Due to Chiller consumption, we recommend that you do not use this Chiller for storing food for a long
period of time. We suggest you store the food in fridges or freezers.
