Yes, please adhere to the following safety rules for your RHINO SG1R-SD:

• Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant inside this appliance.

• Do not use any electrical appliances inside the refrigerated compartment of this appliance.

• Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. Defrosting is automatic.

• Do not damage the refrigeration circuit. If you do, open a window or door immediately to ventilate the area. The refrigerant is flammable.

• This appliance contains flammable refrigerant (R600a) and must only be charged by an authorised supplier.

• The appliance must always be earthed.

• Electrical equipment should not be placed under the unit or where refrigerant could gather in the event of a leak.

• The lighting strips and transformer should only be replaced using genuine Rhino parts of the same technical specification.

• During all operations, be careful not to jolt, jar, bump or thump the cabinet. Handle it gently as the refrigeration pipework is delicate.

• The appliance is heavy; carry out a risk assessment before moving it.

• Cut the banding straps with necessary precautions. Remove all packaging and ensure it is recycled in accordance with local laws.

• Take care not to pinch or damage the power cord.

• The room must be well ventilated and free from sources of ignition. It must not be in a position where refrigerant could gather in a leak.

• Make sure the floor is level and even. Adjust the levelling feet to ensure the cabinet is level, which prevents issues like improper water drainage and door malfunction.

• The appliance requires a minimum ventilation space of 20mm at the sides, top, and rear. The front grille must be completely unobstructed.

• Do not place it next to a source of heat or humidity such as a glass or dish washer, heater outlet, oven, or any other heat or humidity emitting appliance.

• Do not place the appliance in direct sunlight.

• Do not place near a source of static electricity or where it is vulnerable to lightning strike.

The shelves can be adjusted by moving the clips. Squeeze together the relevant support clips and re-locate them in a new position. Ensure the clips are fully inserted and securely located before loading the shelves. The clips should be mounted so that the shelf is level. Failure to do this could result in the shelf falling and would be dangerous.

Warning: Do not exceed the maximum shelf loading weight of 25 kgs per shelf to avoid injury or damage.

Please follow these steps:

1. Observe all warnings and procedures regarding electrical safety.

2. Take care not to pinch or damage the power cord. Examine it for any splits, cuts, or damage. If it is unsatisfactory, it must be replaced by a qualified person.

3. Plug in the cooler and turn on the power at the mains.

4. Switch on the appliance using the red power switch on the front control panel.

The electronic controller is factory set to chill beverages to approximately 2 Centigrade. To alter the set point, follow this procedure:

Step 1: Press and hold the “SET” button for approximately 4 seconds until the display flashes “F1”.

Step 2: Press the SET button quickly once more and the current set point temperature will be displayed.

Step 3: Press the up or down arrow buttons to adjust the setting temperature.

Step 4: Press and hold the SET button for approximately 4 seconds and your new selection will be stored. If you do not press SET, the controller will time out and revert to the previously stored setting.

WARNING! Do not alter the value shown at F2. It must remain at 4 for the cooler to function correctly. This value represents the difference between the compressor switch-on and off temperatures and should not be tampered with. Doing so would invalidate the guarantee.

The interior walls and shelves should be cleaned and sanitized on a regular basis to ensure hygiene regulations are met. Please do not use splashing, dripping, jetting or running water. Do not use steam. Only a damp or wet cloth should be used in conjunction with appropriate cleaning materials for the task. Always follow the instructions specific to the cleaning materials being used.

The condenser must be kept clean and free of dust to work efficiently. It is recommended to check and clean it at least every three months. Follow this procedure:

Step 1: Empty the appliance. Switch it off using the red power switch. Pull it out from its enclosure and unplug it from the mains power supply.

Step 2: Looking at the back of the appliance, remove the screws from the rear compartment cover.

Step 3: Locate the condenser and examine it for dust or debris.

Step 4: Clean the condenser using the nozzle of a vacuum cleaner or a soft brush. Dust that is removed must be cleared away. The condenser is a delicate component and must be treated with great care. Be careful of the fan blades and do not bend or deflect them. NEVER use water in this area.

Note: If the condenser is contaminated with grease or fat, a skilled and competent refrigeration specialist is required for cleaning. Do not use the cabinet or plug it back in until it has been professionally cleaned by a skilled person, as a fire hazard may be present.

Step 5: Replace the cover and screws and plug the appliance back into the mains power supply.

In the event of a malfunction, please be sure to only use a suitably qualified, competent and skilled refrigeration service engineer and insist upon genuine Rhino parts. If the appliance is under guarantee, please call the company from whom you purchased it. Always have the serial number to hand. The serial number is located on the inside wall of the refrigerated compartment, often accompanied by or next to a bar code.

This appliance contains flammable refrigerant within its sealed system and also within the insulation foam. It must be recycled by a professional, competent, authorised and regulated organisation with expertise in the handling of refrigeration appliances. For further information, please consult your local Authority.
