PRODUCT LOADING PROCEDURE FOOD ZONE

Once the installation procedure and the programming of the machine have been done, proceed as follows:
1) Open the machine door.
2) Pull-out one tray at a time, by holding it on the bottom and pulling outwards until you reach the stop point.
The tray will tilt downwards to facilitate loading it.
3) Start the loading from front to rear and make sure that all spaces are loaded. The bottom of the product
should be placed on the base of the division right above the spiral, with label turned to the window so that
it is recognizable by the customer. All products have to be easily placed in the spirals; do not introduce
bigger objects. Spirals can have different pitches and therefore you should choose the spiral suitable for
the product you want to vend or vice-versa choose the product according to the spirals you have.
4) After having loaded all trays, make sure that they turn to position "STANBY". They must be pushed to the
inner side of the cabinet.
Each spiral can be turned each time of 45°. Most of the products can be sold without troubles when the
spiral end is positioned at hour 6. For brik products adjust the end 90° in advance.
NOTE: Products in bags or boxes must be correctly placed. The sealed edge of the bag can slip under the
spiral wire not allowing the fall of the bag. It is recommended to fold the edge forward and upward before
inserting the bag in the space of the spiral.
Products like cakes, biscuits, "handle with care" objects, etc., should be placed in the lower trays so that they
will not be damaged falling.

GUIDELINES FOR LOADING PRODUCTS

Check the TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS chapter to identify which configuration your automatic vending
machine corresponds to, in order to identify the exact area controlled by the "refrigeration unit safety device".
When the machine is switched on for the first time, wait approximately 12 hours for the machine to reach the
operating temperature. In any case, check that the internal part of the machine has dropped below 4°C
before placing the refrigerated products (see Command 66 and Command 67).
If the "refrigeration unit safety device" is tripped, the products in the selections that are out of order must be
eliminated; also in this case, when the machine is switched back on again, wait for the machine to reach the
operating temperature before placing the new refrigerated products inside it.
To remain within the safety limits for the refrigerated products the total door-open time must be no more than
15 minutes. Consequently, all operations must be carried out in as short a time as possible.
