Setup
Unpacking
Carefully remove the cooler from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage. Report any damage to your supplier immediately.
Placement
- Place the cooler on a firm, level surface capable of supporting its weight (97 kg) when fully loaded.
- Ensure adequate ventilation around the cooler. Maintain at least 10 cm of space from walls or other objects on all sides (especially the rear) to allow for proper airflow and heat dissipation.
- Avoid placing the cooler in direct sunlight or near heat sources such as ovens, radiators, or heating vents, as this can affect cooling efficiency.
Power Connection
- Ensure the power supply matches the cooler's requirements (220V).
- Plug the cooler into a dedicated, grounded electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords or adapter plugs.
- After plugging in, allow the cooler to stand for at least 2-4 hours before loading with products. This allows the refrigerant to settle.
Operating Instructions
Initial Startup
After the initial settling period, turn on the cooler. The internal LED light should illuminate, and you should hear the compressor start. Allow the cooler to run empty for a few hours to reach its operating temperature before loading products.
Temperature Control
The cooler is equipped with a thermostat to control the internal temperature. Refer to the control panel (usually located inside or at the rear) to adjust the temperature setting according to your requirements. For optimal cooling, avoid setting the temperature too low unnecessarily, as this consumes more energy.
Loading the Cooler
- Arrange products to allow for proper air circulation. Do not block the air vents inside the cooler.
- Utilize the adjustable shelves to optimize space for different product sizes.
- Avoid overloading the cooler, as this can hinder the dynamic cooling system and lead to uneven temperatures.
Internal LED Lighting
The internal LED lighting enhances product visibility. It typically operates automatically when the door is opened or can be controlled by a switch, depending on the model.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your Frigoglass Visi Cooler.
Cleaning
- Interior: Clean the interior regularly with a mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp objects.
- Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.
- Condenser Coils: Periodically clean the condenser coils (usually located at the rear or bottom) with a brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust and debris. This improves cooling efficiency and prevents overheating.
- Door Gasket: Clean the door gasket regularly to ensure a tight seal.
Defrosting
The cooler is designed to minimize frost buildup. If significant frost accumulates, manually defrost the unit by unplugging it and leaving the door open until the frost melts. Place towels to collect water. Clean and dry the interior before restarting.
Shelf Adjustment
The shelves can be easily removed and repositioned to accommodate different product heights. Lift the shelf slightly and pull it out. To reinsert, align with the desired slots and push firmly until secure.
