Installation
User Manual
Introduction
Thank you for choosing a SKOPE Food Display Cabinet. To ensure you get the most out of
your product, please read these instructions before installing and plugging in the cabinet.
Operation Although this fridge is very energy efficient, further reduction in power consumption can be
achieved by turning off the lighting and refrigeration unit when not required.
The cabinet interior lights and refrigeration unit can each be turned off separately using the
switches beside the electronic controller (see “Refrigeration Unit” on page 9).
Helpful Tips Below are some helpful tips on how to reduce power consumption and service costs:
1. Turn the cabinet’s interior lights off when lighting is not required.
2. Turn the refrigeration unit off when the cabinet is being used only for display purposes (not
being used for perishable product).
3. Ensure good ventilation of the refrigeration unit by installing the cabinet in an area away
from heated appliances (ovens) and away from direct sunlight (see “Positioning the
Cabinet” on page 5).
4. Ensure the sliding doors are opened for the minimum amount of time. Encourage staff and
customers to make their selection before opening the doors.
5. Ensure the condenser is kept clean. Check the condenser is clean every month. See
page 17 for instructions on cleaning the condenser coil.
Positioning the Cabinet
Cabinet
Location When positioning the Food Display Cabinet avoid direct sunlight and warm draughts. Do not
position the cabinet where it will be affected by hot air from adjacent equipment, as this will
compromise the airflow and performance.
The cabinet must be positioned on a level surface for the sliding doors to shut and seal
correctly, and to prevent the condensate tray from overflowing.
Installation
Guidelines The Climatic Class for the Food Display Cabinet is “4”. This means the Food Display Cabinet
is suitable to operate in an ambient temperature (at place of installation) of 30°C at 55%
humidity. The cabinet is designed to operate in a maximum ambient of 32°C at 70% humidity
but will generally use less power when installed in a cooler location.
When installing the Food Display Cabinet:
• Avoid direct sunlight and warm draughts.
• Ensure the cabinet is positioned on a level surface so the sliding doors shut and seal
correctly, and to prevent the condensate tray from overflowing.
• Do not overload the power supply (see the rating label inside the cabinet for power supply
and current draw).
Power Cord The Food Display Cabinet is supplied with a 1.8 m flexible power cord fitted with a 3-pin plug,
which exits out the rear of the cabinet. Before final positioning of the cabinet, pull the power
cord out, and connect it to the mains power supply.
Table 1: Powersaving options
Level Action
1Requires no adjustment.
Simply plug in the cabinet for significant power savings.

SKOPE Food Display Cabinet - Integral
Ventilation Adequate ventilation is essential. For the Food Display Cabinet to operate efficiently you must
make sure that there is adequate ventilation around the refrigeration unit.
• Do not cover the rear ventilation panel or block the entry or exhaust of airflow by placing
objects up against the refrigeration unit.
• Do not block the air vent slots around the bottom of the glass. These air vents are used to
keep the glass clear of condensation.
Shelving
The Food Display Cabinet is supplied with pre-installed shelving and lighting. The shelving
consists of two levels of angled adjustable shelves and one bottom level of stainless steel
trays. The adjustable shelves can be positioned either horizontal or angled down 5°. The
shelving is designed to be easily removed from the cabinet for ease of cleaning.
Before initial operation, remove the plastic ties holding the shelving and lighting which will allow
you to adjust the shelf angles.
Important
For efficient operation of the Food Display Cabinet, it is essential that
adequate ventilation be provided around the refrigeration unit.

Adjusting the
Shelves Procedure 1: To adjust the shelves
1. Remove both sliding rear doors by lifting each door up and
pulling out at the bottom.
2. Cut the plastic ties that hold the shelves in position during
transit and remove the shelves from the cabinet. When refitting
the wire shelves ensure the bottom rail on each shelf sits
against the rear support. This prevents the shelves sliding
backwards.
3. Remove the shelf rear support panels and shelf lighting panels
by lifting up off the shelf brackets. The lighting panels have
power cables connected to the cabinet, limiting how far they
can be pulled out from the cabinet.
4. Position the shelf brackets at the required angle. The support
brackets can be positioned either horizontally or angled
down 5°.
5. Refit the shelf support panels, light panels and wire shelves.
Refit the sliding doors by lifting each door up into the top track
and placing onto the bottom track.

2 Operation
Start-up
Plug the cabinet into the power supply and check operation of the refrigeration unit, cabinet
lighting and electronic controller.
Refrigeration
Unit The compressor and condenser fans should all operate within two minutes from the time the
cabinet is plugged in. You can verify this by listening for the compressor switching on and
checking for air movement out of the air vent slots around the bottom of the glass. The
compressor and condenser fans should switch off and on, depending on the cabinet’s
temperature.
The “Unit” switch (on the right hand side of the controller) turns the refrigeration unit off (O) and
on (I). Do not turn the refrigeration unit off unless the cabinet is being used for display purposes
only (no perishable product).
Cabinet
Lighting All three interior lights will operate continuously unless they are manually switched off using
the Lights switch on the left hand side of the controller. The cabinet fluorescent lights will
require a period of time to stabilise following the start-up.
Electronic
Controller At the initial start-up, the electronic controller will display the current cabinet temperature (see
“Electronic Controller” below).
Electronic Controller
Overview Depending on the date of manufacture, the cabinet will be fitted with a SKOPE customised
CAREL ir33 controller (before January 2023) or a SKOPE customised CAREL S4 EVO
controller (after January 2022). Check the label on top of the controller to verify the controller
type.
The electronic controller controls and displays the cabinet temperature. It uses a temperature
probe to collect data and runs cabinet accordingly. The electronic controller is programmed
and usually requires no initial setup or additional programming. SKOPE does not recommend
changing the settings unless necessary.
