ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Always disconnect the power supply to the unit prior to any repair or maintenance of the unit in

order to prevent electric shock or injury.

Ensure you do not inhale or consume medication or aerosols from around the unit at the time of maintenance. These may be harmful to your health.

Cleaning

1.Clean the unit once a month. Regular cleaning keeps the unit looking new.

2.Use a dry cloth to wipe off small amounts of dirt on the outside and inside of the unit and all accessories. If the unit is very dirty, use a neutral detergent.

3.After cleaning, wipe away the cleaner completely with a cloth washed in clean water.

4.Never pour water onto or into the unit. Doing so can damage the electric shock or short circuit.

5.The compressor and other mechanical part are completely sealed. This unit requires absolutely no lubrication. There is a fan behind the compressor, so be very careful if you stick your hand into this part of the unit.

Cleaning of condenser filter

This unit is provided with the filter check lamp. This lamp flickers and the buzzer sounds when the condenser filter is clogged. Clean the filter according to the following procedure. As a clogged filter may cause poor cooling and compressor trouble, clean it once a month.

1.The filter fitted to the grille can be removed as shown in

the figure.

2.Remove the mounting screw securing the grille and pull

out the grille.

3.Remove the filter installed inside the grille, wash it with

water and dry it naturally.

4.Replace the clean filter as before.

5.Replace the grille and tighten the screw and check that the filter check lamp is off.

Defrosting of inside wall

Defrost the inside wall of the freezer as follows:

Normal defrosting

Remove the frost by the enclosed scraper. Take care not to damage the inside wall.

Thorough defrosting

1.Take out and transfer all the contents to another freezer or container which contains liquid CO2, liquid N2, or dry ice. Switch off the alarm and back-up system of AT type. Switch off the power supply.

2.Open the door and remove the inner lid. Leave the freezer as it is. The water remaining in the freezer compartment should be wiped up.

3.After cleaning is completed, restart the operation according to the procedure. Put back the articles into the sufficiently cooled freezer compartment.
