BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F (01) PDF Document

Please follow these electrical safety guidelines when using your BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F:

1. Do not modify the power cord length or share the outlet with other appliances. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an authorized service person.

2. Plug the power cord into the socket properly. A loose plug can cause electric shock or fire due to heat generation.

3. Do not switch the Super Cooler ON/OFF with wet hands, as this may cause an electric shock.

4. Use a dedicated power socket for the Super Cooler. Do not use an extension cord to avoid overloading and intermittent tripping of other appliances.

5. Never splash water on your Super Cooler, as it may cause a short circuit.

6. To prevent electric shock, this appliance must be grounded (earthed). Consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about the grounding.

7. The Super Cooler should be positioned so that the supply plug is accessible for quick disconnection in case of an accident.

8. The operating voltage range is 187-242V. It is recommended to use a voltage stabilizer of at least 500W to protect the cooler if the voltage is outside this range.

9. An individual single-phase socket must be used and reliably connected to a grounding wire. Do not connect the grounding wire to a water or gas pipe.

For your safety when handling and cleaning the BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F:

• Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull it straight out from the outlet.

• Unplug the power cord before cleaning. Never touch the plug with wet hands.

• To ensure safety, the power plug must be pulled out before cleaning.

• During transport and installation, ensure no parts of the refrigerating circuits are damaged. If a leak is detected, avoid any open flames or ignition sources and ventilate the room for several minutes.

• After the cooler is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces inside, especially with wet hands, as skin can stick to them.

Yes, there are restrictions on items that can be stored in your BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F:

• Do not use or store inflammable materials like ether, benzene, alcohol, medicine, LP gas, sprays, or cosmetics near or in the Super Cooler to prevent explosion or fire.

• Do not place a lit candle inside the cooler to deodorize, as it may cause an explosion or fire.

• Products with strong base, strong acid, organic solvents, corrosive goods, or those that can easily pollute food are prohibited from being stored in the showcase. This can cause corrosion or accidents.

The BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F includes the following features:

• UV-protected galvanised sheets for interior and exterior.

• Adjustable plastic-coated wire mesh shelves.

• Energy-efficient cooling unit.

• Eco-friendly refrigerant (R134a).

• Uniform cooling.

• High-density PUF insulation.

Follow these instructions for proper installation of your BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F:

1. Location: The cooler should be installed in an environment with good ventilation, that is cool and dry, and without corrosive gas. It should not be installed close to heat sources or directly under sunlight. There should be a space of more than 10cm between the wall and the back of the showcase.

2. Leveling: Always ensure the merchandiser is installed on a stable surface/floor and is properly leveled. There are 2 adjustable feet at the front under the chassis. Adjust these until the unit is level, using a spirit level if available. Improper leveling can result in cabin deformation.

3. Ventilation Clearance: Allow a minimum gap of 100mm at the top, approx 100mm at the rear (use the supplied rear spacer), and 50mm at the sides of the cooler for proper ventilation. Do not place anything on top of the unit.

4. Pre-Operation Wait Time: The Super Cooler must stand upright for at least 1 hour after transportation and prior to start-up. This gives the oil time to run back to the compressor. If the cabinet was excessively tilted during delivery or installation, allow 3 hours before operation.

5. Initial Start-up: During the initial operation, the cooler should run empty for about one hour before storing food in it.

Do not place the cooler in the following locations:

• In direct sunlight or near heat sources (radiators, stoves & other heating equipment).

• Outdoors, without proper protection from rain, moisture, and other atmospheric elements.

• In weather conditions for which it is not certified.

• In extreme environmental conditions (e.g., extensive exposure to saline humidity, areas with potential water accumulation).

• On a surface angled by more than 5°.

• Under a roof-mounted ventilation system and near air streams.

• In a wet place or a place where water or rain splashes, as this can cause deterioration of insulation and electric leakage.

To adjust a shelf in your cooler, first unload it completely. Then, lift the shelf and unclip the four shelf clips. Place the clips in the desired new position and reposition the shelf. Ensure that the horizontal metal rods at the bottom of the shelf are situated between the front and back shelf clips. Never attempt to reposition a shelf when it is loaded with products.

To save energy and improve the performance of your BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F, follow these tips:

• Load the unit at night for better cooling by day, as cooling consumes less power when the ambient temperature is lower.

• Store your back-up stock in a cool and/or dark place so that when reloaded, the unit will need much less time to cool them down.

• Wipe moisture off the products before you place them in the unit.

• Avoid opening the door frequently or leaving it open for long periods.

• After one year, the fluorescent tubes emit 30% less light. Call a service technician to replace the fluorescent tubes or starters if you wish to have stronger lighting.

Before proceeding with any cleaning or maintenance, always unplug the cooler.

• It is important to clean the Super Cooler twice a year to avoid mould formation, odours, etc. Periodical cleaning is suggested every 30-45 days.

• The interior of the unit should be cleaned with a mildly soapy cloth. The glass surface can be cleaned using a window-cleaning agent.

• Never use a water hose or high-pressure jet to clean the cooler.

• Do not clean with sharp objects, flammable or corrosive liquids, or sprays.

• If a bottle breaks and liquid spills, unplug the cooler before cleaning up. Use protective gloves to protect yourself from broken glass.

• Keep the cooler in a stable position during cleaning; do not step on or lean over it.

• Ensure the surface and the inside of the showcase are kept dry and clean to prevent rust.

If your BLUE STAR SUPER COOLER SC1000F does not work, check the following:

• Possible Reason: The power cord is not plugged in.
Solution: Plug it in.

• Possible Reason: There is no power coming through the socket.
Solution: Check for a blown fuse or a tripped Mains MCB.

If your cooler is not cooling enough and the products are warm, consider these reasons:

• The unit was recently reloaded with warm products: It takes 12-19 hours to cool them down. Preferably, reload the unit before night closing.

• The unit is placed near strong air streams or heat sources: Relocate the unit according to the installation instructions.

• The unit is loaded in a way that blocks air circulation: Load the unit according to the standards provided to you.

• The door does not seal properly: The door may need repair for proper closing. This should be performed by a technician.

• No air is circulating in the condenser area: This could be due to a fan motor failure. The motor should be replaced by a technician.

• Leakage on the cooling system or a faulty Controller/Thermostat: These issues require repair by a technician. Contact the service provider.

If your cooler is making noise, here are some possible causes:

• Normal operational noise: This Super Cooler uses a powerful mechanism, so a certain amount of noise cannot be avoided. Super Coolers are of a dynamic type.

• Intense metallic noise: This could indicate a problem. Contact the service provider.

• Inclined or curved floor: The unit may be unstable. Level the unit properly by adjusting its feet. Using a spirit level on top of the unit will help.

Water on the floor could be caused by the following:

• Drainage hose is out of the tray: Contact the service provider to fix it.

• Leakage in the tray: Contact the service provider for a repair.

• Blocked drainage hole for condensate water: Unblock the drainage hole.

• Excessive humid environment: On certain days with high humidity, overflow of the tray could occur.

If the lights are not working, check these two things:

• The light switch (if available) may be turned off. Try turning on the light switch.

• The light (fluorescent tubes/LED tube/LED Strip) may be out of order. Contact the service provider for a replacement.

Condensation on the glass is typically caused by a very high humid atmosphere. On days with excessive levels of humidity, condensation on the glass can occur.

If you notice a smoke or burning smell, which could be from a burning electrical cable or other component, you must unplug the unit from the wall socket immediately and contact the service provider.
