Loading and Airflow
Ensure that there is no more than 40kg of evenly distribute product placed on or within each shelf
or drawer. Always ensure the air can circulate around/through the stored product.
It is important that for optimal energy performance that adequate airflow is maintained around the
perimeter of the shelves, and around all stored products.
On all models please ensure that no product is placed on the unit base.
Door & Drawer Lock
To lock the door or drawer insert the key and turn 90°, turn in the opposite direction to unlock.
Defrost
All Foster G2 cabinets are fitted with a fully automatic defrost system to ensure that the evaporator
coil remains free from ice during normal use. Melt-water is evaporated using either the heat from
the refrigeration system or a separate electric heater (dependent upon model and configuration)
To activate a manual defrost - while the cabinet is in 'run' mode press and hold
seconds. After 3 seconds the display will go blank then return after a further 2 seconds. At this
point a defrost will be performed (subject to underlying operating parameters), this will terminate
automatically.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Important: Before cleaning, the unit should be put into standby and then the power supply
should be turned off at the mains. Please do not plug or unplug the unit with wet hands.
Only when cleaning has been completed and the unit is dry should the cabinet be turned
back on at the mains.
Suitable P.P.E (Personal Protective Equipment) should be worn at all times.
Regular Maintenance:
>
As and when required remove all product and shelving (beware of cold and or sharp
components) from the unit. Clean exterior and interior surfaces with mild liquid detergent,
following the directions on the pack at all times. Rinse surfaces with a damp cloth
containing clean water. Never use wire wool, scouring pads/powders or high alkaline
cleaning agents i.e bleaches, acids and chlorines as these may cause damage.
>
Condenser Cleaning:
This should take place on a regular basis or as and when required (4 to 6 weeks) by a
competent/trained personnel.
Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dirt/dust. If there are any stubborn grease
deposits left on or through the condenser call your supplier to carry out a full service (this
is normally chargeable). Failure to maintain the condenser may invalidate the warranty of
the condensing unit and cause premature failure of the motor/compressor.
Do not use a wire brush to clean the condenser. Hoover or brush the air filter (where
fitted).
>
All gaskets should be inspected on a regular basis and replaced if damaged. To clean,
wipe with a warm damp soapy cloth followed by a clean damp cloth. Finally thoroughly
dry.
>
Shelves and their supports can be removed for cleaning. The shelves are dishwasher
safe; however the vertical supports should be cleaned with warm soapy water then rinsed
and dried.
