2.1Safety Information

When using any electrical appliance, safety precautions should

always be observed. Read these instructions carefully and retain for

future reference.

When used by, or near, young

children or infirm persons, close

supervision is necessary. Young

children should be supervised to

ensure that they do not play with the

appliance.

Only use this appliance with voltage

specified on the rating label.

Regulations require that all

electrical work be carried out by

authorised persons. For your own

safety and that of others, ensure

this is done.

Disconnect the cabinet from the

power supply before cleaning the

cabinet.

Ensure adequate ventilation of the

refrigeration system.

Do NOT cover the grilles or block

the entry or exhaust of airflow by

placing objects up against the

refrigeration unit.

OPERATION

HB300/400

Serene Single Door Vertical Cooler

Be careful not to touch moving parts

or hot surfaces.

Do NOT probe any opening.

If the supply cord becomes

damaged, it must be replaced by a

SKOPE authorised service agent,

or similarly qualified person.

The meaning of the safety symbols used in this manual:

The content with this ‘Warning’ symbol is in association

with product safety and user’s personal safety.

Operation should be strictly in accordance with the

warning material.

The content with this ‘Forbid’ symbol is operation that is

absolutely forbidden, otherwise it may cause damage

to equipment or to user’s personal safety.

OPERATION

HB300/400

Serene Single Door Vertical Cooler

2.2Cabinet Operation

Before Operating

Before operating the cooler, ensure:

•the cooler is positioned on a level surface.

•that the maximum operating conditions are 40°C at 75% RH.

•there is adequate ventilation around the refrigeration unit.

•there is a gap of at least 35mm behind the cabinet.

•the rubber door stop is removed from the bottom lock bracket.

•both front stabiliser feet are screwed firmly down to floor level.

•both stand-off stops are fitted to the rear of the cabinet.

•the plastic drain pin is fitted in the drain hole in the cabinet liner

bottom.

•the cooler is allowed to stand for at least 30 minutes before

connecting to the power supply.

Connect the cabinet to the mains power supply and check operation

of the refrigeration unit and cabinet lighting.

Refrigeration Unit

The refrigeration unit evaporator and condenser fans should all

operate continuously from the time the cabinet is plugged in. This

may be verified by checking air movement inside the cabinet and out

of the top of the front kick panel.

Cabinet Lighting

The sign light and cabinet interior light will both go on when the

cabinet is plugged in, and will stay on permanently. The fluorescent

lights will require a period of time to stabilise following initial start up.

See pages 10-11 for instructions on replacing the fluorescent tubes.

OPERATION

HB300/400

Serene Single Door Vertical Cooler

2.3Loading

When loading the cabinet shelves with product:

•Allow air space around all the product, for even cooling and

efficient operation of the cooler.

•Do not exceed a maximum of 195 kg/m

•Leave an air space of at least 50mm above product on the top

shelf.

•Do not allow products to overhang the front or rear of the

shelves, as this will effect air flow.

The cooler should be

left running for 30

minutes before loading

with product.

Ensure the shelves are securely

fitted, using all four of the supplied

shelf clips on each shelf.

OPERATION

HB300/400

Serene Single Door Vertical Cooler

2.4Temperature Adjustment

The storage temperature of the cooler can be regulated to suit

different ambient temperature by turning the temperature controller

knob, located on the back of the cabinet.

The knob is graduated from 0 through to 6, with 1 being the warmest

and 6 being the coldest. The normal temperature controller setting

is between 3 and 5.

•To make colder - turn the controller knob clockwise.

•To make warmer - turn the controller knob anti-clockwise.

NOTE: Turning the knob to 0 will switch the refrigeration unit OFF.
