3) Clean the condenser at least every 30 days with a hard non-metal brush, taking off dust and dirt from between the
fins. To access the condenser of the self-contained versions, it is necessary to disconnect the appliance from the power
mains and then remove the appropriate rear guard using a P2 cross-tip screwdriver (see fig. 3 on page 2). A dirty con-
denser cools imperfectly, so causing waste of energy and poor performance. Wear heavy-duty gloves when cleaning
the condenser.
4) Defrost the showcase every three months to let the ice that may have formed between the evaporator fins melt, since
frost may otherwise prevent correct operation. Proceed according to the instructions for cleaning the inside surfa-
ces, item 2, but allow a longer wait time for the ice to melt completely.
ATTENTION! any maintenance operation not dealt with above, must be carried out by the authorised after-
sales service or by qualified personnel.
11. EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
1) The cabinet will not start or will not keep on working:
• there may be a general blackout;
• the wall main switch may be off;
• the plug of the appliance may be out of the receptacle.
If power failure is not due to any of the above causes, call the nearest after-sales service immediately,
empty the showcase and store the foods in coldrooms or refrigerators that may ensure their preservation
temperature.
2) The showcase will not cool properly
• the condenser may be dirty and therefore unable to exchange heat. If it is obstructed with dust or dirt, clean thoroughly
as explained in section 10;
• make sure that the product load is correct (see section 7);
• if the showcase has not been defrosted for longer than 3 months, defrost and clean it before starting normal operation
(see section 10, item 4);
• make sure that the case is not exposed to sources of heat or draught;
• make certain that ambient conditions comply with the requirements of page 4, table II;
• check that the showcase is perfectly horizontal by the use of a spirit level.
Should insufficient cooling persist, resort to the nearest after-sales service.
IN CASE OF A GAS LEAK OR FIRE, do not breathe inside the room that houses the cabinet before having
aired it properly. Turn the cabinet off by the main switch ahead (see fig. 20). DO NOT USE WATER BUT ONLY DRY
EXTINGUISHERS TO PUT OUT THE FIRE.
3) The cabinet operates noisily:
• make sure that screws and bolts are tight;
• check that the showcase is perfectly horizontal by the use of a spirit level.
Should the inconvenience persist, resort to the nearest after-sales service.
12. AFTER-SALES SERVICE
Should it be necessary to resort to technical assistance, contact your sales person immediately. If spare parts are nee-
ded, always refer to your after-sales service: insist on the use of original spare parts. Scroll the Italian and
European network of branch offices on the back of this manual for addresses and phone numbers.
