7. POSITIONING, START-UP AND OPERATION
To ensure proper operation, the device should be placed in an area with a good air
circulation, away from heat sources and sunlight, free from dust (the device is not
dustproof), at ambient temperature from +16°C to +25°C (3rd climatic class). It is
forbidden to cover inlet and outlet of air from aggregate.
Place the device horizontally and connect it to the power supply according to the
guidelines included in the chapter No. 4 - “Wiring system”.
The manufacturer is not responsible for interferences of the device operation in
temperature below +16°C (too long defrosting cycle) and above +25°C (3rd climatic
class).
The order of operations before starting
Set the device in the desired place and screw all the feet to a slight resistance, then
using a spirit level by unscrewing the feet set the device horizontally.
WARNING:
The device cannot be placed below the floor level (in a hollow).
The room in which the device is located must have a minimum cubature of 4 m3.
The sockets mounted on the device cannot be loaded with a current greater than
1.0 A (230 W) in total - regardless of the number of sockets installed and the
number of connected receivers.
Power cord is connected directly with sockets mounted on the device.
The aggregate and lighting switches do not disconnect current voltage into
the socket.
Start-up and exploitation:
The aggregate and lighting is switched on and off by means of the switch shown on
picture 1b.
The temperature inside the device is adjusted by means of the electronic temperature
controller, according to the instructions included in the chapter No. 10.
After switching the device on, leave it empty until its switching off for the first time. After
that it is ready to be filled with products.
The goods on the shelves should be placed evenly so that they do not stick out
beyond the contours of the shelves - to maintain proper air circulation inside the
device.
Maximum shelf load: 15 kg / m².
In case of crackling coming from the condensate evaporation container, disconnect the
device from the power supply, wait for the heater to cool (approx. 10 min) and clean the
heater and container with a cloth.
Short-term condensation of water on glass panes and metal parts is a natural
phenomenon. Longlasting and frequent occurrence of condensation indicates
inappropriate environmental conditions (ambient humidity and temperature too
high).

8. MAINTENANCE
After disconnecting the device from power supply, the general maintenance should
be done by the user, as follows:
1. washing with water of the temperature not more than +40°C with addition of natural
cleaning agents. To wash and clean the device it is forbidden to use agents
containing of chlorine and sodium of various varieties, which destroy the
protective layer and components of the device! Any residual glue or silicone on
the metal parts of the device should be removed only with gasoline (not applicable
to plastic components!). Do not use other organic solvents.
2. removing impurities from the condenser by means of vacuum cleaner
(from up to down - along the fins) at least once a month so that the flow of the
cooling air through the condenser fins is not hampered.
Not following the above instructions causes increased energy consumption,
decreased refrigeration efficiency of the device and eventually result in aggregate
overheating, which consequently may lead to failure.
While cleaning the condenser be careful not to deform the fins.
Do not wash the device with a water jet.
It is not advisable to clean the condenser with a brush as it causes impurities
penetration deep into the condenser fins and finally block the air flow
completely.
For units with an automatic condensate evaporation system, clean the container every
2 weeks to prevent the formation of unpleasant odours.

Description of the main signals and alarms
LED flashing –The activation of the corresponding function is delayed by a timer
awaiting an external signal or disabled by another procedure that is
already in progress. e.g. if is a continuous cycle in progress and a defrost is called,
the latter will remain pending until the end of the continuous cycle, and the
corresponding LED (defrost) will flash.
OFF flashing –state of the controller - OFF, to return to working mode (ON)
press and hold ON/OFF button for more than 3 sec.
E0 steady –control probe error (1) –active sound signal:
probe not working: the probe signal is interrupted or short-circuited;
probe not compatible with the instrument.
The E0 alarm signal is constant when it is the only active alarm (the temperature
value is not displayed).
E0 flashing –control probe error (1) –the alarm signal E0 is steady if it is the only
active alarm (the temperature value is not displayed), while it flashes if other alarms
are active or the second probe is displayed.
E1 flashing –evaporator probe error (2):
probe not working, the probe signal is interrupted or short-circuited;
probe not compatible with the instrument.
Ed flashing –The last defrost ended after exceeding the maximum duration rather
than when reaching the end defrost set point. The message disappears when the
next defrost ends correctly.
EF displayed during operation or on power-up –operating parameter reading
error (controller automatic reset). Alarm reappearance after automatic reset –it is
necessary to check the controller as there is no guarantee to keep the original
precision of the operation.
EE –data errors –In certain operating conditions, the instrument may detect errors
in the data saved. These errors may compromise the correct operation of the
instrument. If the microprocessor detects a data saving error, the display shows the
message “EE”. If the fault persists, the controller needs to be replaced. If, on the
other hand, the message disappears, it can continue to be used. When “EE” error
occurs frequently and/or remains for some time, the controller should be checked,
as the original precision may not be guaranteed.
LO flashing –low temperature alarm. The probe has measured a temperature
lower than the set point by a value that exceeds parameter AL:
check parameters AL, Ad and A0.
The alarm is automatically reset when the temperature returns within the set limits
(see parameter AL).
HI flashing –high temperature alarm. The probe has measured a temperature
higher than the set point by a value that exceeds parameter AH.
check parameters AH, Ad and A0.
