Dear customer,
we congratulate you on your new SARO Barcooler with recirculation fan.
Our barcoolers were developed for commercial use and therefore have all the features you would expect
from a professional barcooler.
The steel housings of the barcoolers are stove-enamelled and therefore insensitive to daily stress. The
barcoolers have two height-adjustable shelves per compartment. The illuminated interior is made of
robust light alloy.
The digital temperature control on the outside allows the temperature to be conveniently adjusted. The
double-glazed, self-closing doors make it easy to remove and present your goods in a sales-promoting
way.
In all barcoolers we use R600a refrigerant, which means that the units are free of HFCs.
Please read these operating instructions carefully before starting up the Barcooler.
We hope you enjoy your new SARO Barcooler with recirculation fan!

AFFILIATION
Connect the unit only to a grounding socket outlet with an earthing and a 230 volt connection.
Before connecting the device, make sure that the voltage and frequency of the power supply correspond
to the information on the nameplate! Other voltages can lead to overheating of the device!
If you have connected the unit, wait about one hour to allow the interior to cool down
suciently before loading it with goods.
After delivery or transport of the device, do not connect it until the device has been idle
for at least 24 hours. This is absolutely necessary so that the coolant can collect in the
compressor.
After a power failure or if the device has been disconnected from the power supply, wait
at least 5 minutes before reconnecting and starting up the device!
If the unit is restarted immediately after it has been switched o, the fuse may trip and
interrupt the current ow. In addition, the compressor may be overloaded and damaged.
ADJUST TEMPERATURE
The temperature can be set from +2 °C to +10 °C. To set the temperature, press the SET button on the
control panel of the thermostat. The currently set temperature is displayed and can now be controlled
using the UP and DOWN buttons. Press the SET button again to complete the operation. After a short
moment, the current temperature in the barcooler is displayed again.
Excessive lowering of the temperature can lead to excessive power consumption and should be avoided.

OPERATION
Um Energie zu sparen und um zu verhindern, dass kalte Luft entweicht, halten Sie die Türen immer nur so
lange geönet, wie es eben notwendig ist.
Dieses Gerät verfügt über einen Umluftventilator, welcher dafür sorgt, dass die kalte Luft im Inneren
zirkuliert. Die Abstände zwischen den Einlegeböden und Tür dienen der Luftzirkulation. Achten Sie daher
beim Einräumen Ihrer Waren darauf, dass die Luft frei zirkulieren kann und keine Waren überstehen oder
der Ventilator durch Waren verdeckt wird. - Verteilen Sie die Waren gleichmäßig auf den Einlegeböden.
CLEANING
To avoid the risk of electric shock or injury from the rotating fan, disconnect the unit from the power
supply before cleaning. Do not start cleaning before the fan has come to a standstill!
• The unit must be disconnected from the power supply before cleaning!
• Never use water directly or a water jet to clean the unit!
• Never immerse the device, cable or plug in water!
WARNING: DANGER FROM ELECTRICAL CURRENT!
Clean the cabinet and interior with a soft, dry cloth. If you need to remove heavy soiling, use a cloth
moistened with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent. Make sure that no water gets into
the device. Wipe thoroughly with a dry cloth to dry the surfaces.
Do not use any corrosive or abrasive cleaning agents! Do not use alcohol or alkaline
detergents, thinners or benzene. This could damage the plastic parts or painted
surfaces!
Never use hot water to clean the unit!
REFRIGERATOR DEFROSTING / CONDENSATION COLLECTOR TRAY
The unit has an automatic defrosting function. The condensation water is collected in a collection tank.
The water in the container evaporates automatically.

MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of the Barcooler may only be carried out by qualied personnel!
• A damaged device must not be used! In this case, disconnect the device from the power supply and
contact your dealer!
• Never attempt to open or repair the unit yourself. There is a danger to life!
WARNING: DANGER FROM ELECTRICAL CURRENT!
Ensure that the air inlet and outlet openings on the base of the unit are always free
of impurities. Check them regularly and remove any dust deposits with the help of a
vacuum cleaner.
TIPS
In case of a power failure, open the door of the barcooler only if absolutely necessary. Do not add any
new, uncooled goods during this time.
If the barcooler is not used for a longer period of time, remove all goods from the barcooler and
disconnect it from the power supply by unplugging the mains plug.
Clean the interior and dry it thoroughly to prevent the formation of odours and mould. Then keep the
door open to ensure that there is no moisture in the interior.
If the barcooler needs to be transported, disconnect it from the power supply by unplugging the power
cord. When transporting, make sure that the adjustable feet of the Barcoolers do not damage the power
cable and that they do not touch it anywhere during transport.
If the barcooler is stored temporarily, get small pieces of wood or something similar which you fasten
between the doors and the interior to prevent the door from closing completely!
WARNING: DANGER OF INJURY!
• If the device is not used and stored elsewhere, do not store the device in a place where children are
playing. Make sure that the doors cannot be closed. This minimizes the risk of a child being locked
up in the device.
