General Hazards!
All moving parts of the Blast Chiller are suitably guarded and the moving parts can only be
accessed by using tools which should only be attempted by a qualified person.!
!
Electrical Connection!
This product is supplied with a moulded 13 Amp plug which needs a suitable socket. This
cabinet should not be used outside and should be used in a dry environment.The plug
needs to be accessible once the equipment is placed in its final position. Should the plug
need changing, this must be done by a qualified person.!
!
Unpacking!
Leave all packaging in place until blast chiller is in its final position to avoid damage.When
the cabinet is in its final position, carefully remove all packaging and check for damage.
Any damage should be reported immediately to your dealer.All packaging should be
carefully disposed of and recycled where possible.!
!
Installation!
The cabinet is very easy to move around as CyberChill blast chillers are supplied on
castors as standard. If for any reason the cabinet has to be laid down, it should always be
laid on its back and not its side or front to avoid damage. When lowering or raising the
cabinet extreme care should be taken as the castors can run away whilst lifting or
lowering. A person should always be standing at the base of the cabinet whilst it is being
lowered or raised. Cabinet should not be plugged in for at least 1 hour if it has been laid
down or tipped during installation.!
This product must be placed on a level floor to ensure the automatic door closing and
correct draining of condensate.!
!
Ventilation!
Refrigeration equipment, and Blast Chiller in particular, generates a lot of heat.ABlast
Chiller gives off the same heat as a 3kW electric heater. Therefore, it is very important that
it must be installed with sufficient space around it for ventilation and for maintenance
access. Ventilation grills must not be blocked, or even partially blocked as this could affect
the cabinetʼs performance and life span.!
!

!
!
Shelves / Pans / Slides!
Fit the shelf / pan slides in the correct position to suit the user. Gastronorm pans are not
supplied as standard.!
!
!
!
!
!
!
Castors / Adjustable Legs / Levelling Feet!
Lock the two front castors once the cabinet is in its final position by pressing down the
metal bar with your foot. This will stop the cabinet from moving when the door is opened
and closed. The level on models fitted with castors canʼt be adjusted so a level floor should
be provided. Models fitted with adjustable legs or levelling feet can be levelled by screwing
the legs/feet in or out to the desired height.!

Initial Start Up!
Plug the 13 Amp moulded plug into a suitable socket. If necessary, push the button on
the controller to start the unit. The controller will display a “PO” (Power Outage) alarm.
Press the red cancel button to cancel the alarm and the Blast Chiller will go into Chill
Storage mode.!
!
Checks!
After initial start up, the Blast Chiller should start to pull down to the preset temperature,
check that the temperature is reducing and listen inside and outside the cabinet to make
sure the fans are turning freely to check there has been no movement in shipping. If time
permits, stay with the cabinet until the preset temperature is reached and the condensing
unit cuts out.!
!
Using Your New Piece Of Refrigeration Equipment!
The cabinet must reach its preset operating temperature before loading any produce.
Please ensure that the produce is equally distributed throughout the cabinet and that air
can circulate around and through the products stored.!

Using Your Blast Chiller!
Storage Modes:!
CyberChillʼs Blast Chiller / Freezers have two storage modes: Chill Store (3oC) and Freeze
Store (-18oC). The unit defaults to Chill Store but you can choose between the two by
pressing the first select button.!
!
Product Loading!
Food should be loaded into Gastronorm pans which slide directly onto the Blast Chillerʼs
shelving system. Remember that a Blast Chiller works in a very similar way to an oven, but
in reverse. An oven puts heat into the food and a Blast Chiller take heat out. With this in
mind, some products chill faster than others and there is a possibility for some items to
freeze on the exterior if left in the Blast Chiller for too long, as they might burn on the
exterior if left in an oven for too long.!
!
Blast Cycles:!
!
Soft Chill 90oto 3oC !
!
Hard Chill 90oto 3oC!
!
Blast Freeze 90oto -18oC!
!
The difference between Soft and Hard Chill is the air temperature used to chill the food.
Soft chill is the equivalent of cooking at a lower temperature. This is to ensure a more even
chilling throughout the food. Hard chill uses a lower temperature and, just as cooking a
piece of meat at a higher temperature can increase the risking of burning the outside whilst
leaving the inside rare, hard chill can freeze the outside before the inside reaches 3oC.!

Starting a cycle!
Setting a standard blast chill cycle is as easy as pressing two buttons. First you press the
middle select button. The first option is a 90 minute Soft Chill cycle button to start the
cycle. If this is your desired cycle, simply press the button to start the cycle.!
!
If you wish to choose a different cycle, press the select button directly above the Cycle
Modes to select between Soft Chill, Hard Chill and Blast Freeze .
If required, press the third select button to choose between or food probe cycle
termination mode. The Soft and Hard Chill automatically default to a 90 minute timed cycle
and the Blast Freeze to a 240 minute timed cycle. To adjust the time, simply press the
and .!
$
Once you have chosen your desired cycle, simply press the button to start. !
!
During a Cycle !
!
Once a cycle has started, three dots will scroll under the set time on the top display and
the timer will start counting down. The air temperature is displayed on the bottom display.
With a Food Probe controlled cycle, PRO is displayed with the three scrolling dots and the
probe temperature is shown on the bottom display.!
!
Press theto cancel a cycle midstream. The machine will automatically defrost and enter
the appropriate Store Mode - Chill Store is a Soft or Hard Chill cycle was cancelled and
Freeze Store if a Blast Freeze cycle was cancelled.!
!
End of Cycle!
Once the chosen cycle has terminated, the display will flash END and a buzzer will sound
for 10 seconds. This can be muted by pressing the button. It will then go into a Defrost
(DEF) mode followed by Chill or Freeze Store depending on whether its a Chill or Freeze
cycle which has just terminated. This is entirely automatic and requires no use
intervention. A new cycle cant be started until the defrost has terminated. !

!
Maintenance!
The Blast Chiller / Freezer is fully automatic and, apart from cleaning needs very little
maintenance.!
Interior and exterior should be cleaned with soap and water and no abrasives should be
used as they will scratch and spoil the stainless steel finish. Interior shelving and racking
can be removed on most models for easy cleaning. Counter drawer sets can be fully
removed and the drawers can be washed in a dish washer if needed.!
!
Maintenance and Cleaning!
Before cleaning and maintenance, the cabinet should be in standby mode then unplugged
from the power supply. !
Door Gaskets should be cleaned with warm soapy water and inspected on a regular basis
and if damaged they should be replaced. Cooking oils and harsh cleaning detergents will
shorten the life of the gaskets and contact should be avoided. !
!
Condenser Cleaning!
All the heat removed from the Blast Chiller is discharged into the room via the condenser
which is similar to a car radiator. This must be kept clean so that the air can pass through it
to remove the heat, if it becomes choked with dust the unit will over heat and this can lead
to a burnt out compressor. The condenser should be brushed with a soft brush to remove
any dust deposited on the alloy fins. The frequency of this cleaning is determined by the
amount of dust in the surrounding area but should be cleaned at least 4 times a year.!
!
Gasket Replacement!
Damaged gaskets can easily be replaced. Remove the old !
gasket by gently pulling it out of the gasket retainer and simply !
push in the new gasket leaving the corners until last.!
!
!
End of Life Disposable Requirements
Refrigerated cabinets have components that could be harmful to the environment. All end
of life equipment must be disposed of in accordance with national laws and regulations.

Fault Finding!
In the event of cabinet fault/failure, please check the following: !
1. Plug is in socket and power to the socket can be proven by plugging another appliance
into the same socket or swapping the problem cabinet to a socket that is known to
work. !
2. The fuse located in the plug is intact. !
3. The condenser is clean and free from dust or debris. !
4. Door gasket is sealing and free from damage. !
!
If this doesn’t solve the problem, please call a qualified technician.!
When requesting a service call, please find the manufacturers data plate and provide the
model, serial number and details of any fault codes that are displayed.!
Alarms!
The controller is equipped with internal visual and audio alarms:
