SCHMICK HUS-EX108 (01) PDF Document

Before calling a technician for your SCHMICK HUS-EX108 mini bar fridge, check for the following:

Noise Issues:

Can you ascertain exactly where the noise is coming from? It may be a loose screw or part of the fridge that is now vibrating and is easy to fix.

Is the compressor/fridge level? A compressor not level will make a ‘clunking’ noise on start-up and shut down.

Does the fan sound noisy? It may be as simple as needing slight adjustment.

Not Cooling:

Does the compressor run? Make sure the compressor is running. If it is running and you have a warm fridge then there is a gas problem and a technician will be needed.

Check the fan inside the unit (if applicable). If the fan inside the unit is not working then air won’t be distributed evenly, a lot of areas will not be as cold as some, and the rear plate may ice up (hidden).

Is your door sealing properly? Check all the way around the door seal to make sure it is seating correctly on the fridge body; small gaps won’t affect cooling.

Freezing Product:

The units are not freezers but there is a possibility of freezing drinks, especially if the unit is set on the lowest subzero setting and is not being used over time. The thermostat cycles high/low and keeps drinks cold even though cycles fluctuate a lot.

If you are experiencing rapid ice buildup on the inside walls of the unit, the thermostat is likely to be faulty, and a technician is needed.

To maintain your SCHMICK HUS-EX108 mini bar fridge:

Clean the door seal every 6 months, using eucalyptus oil and a soft cloth.

Clean the inside unit every 6 months, as water parts and food can cause mold and bacteria to form.

Clean underneath the unit periodically.

The SCHMICK HUS-EX108 mini bar fridge has the following key features:

• Unit is Tropical rated, so it can work in high ambient temperatures.
• Unit has ‘timer defrost,’ meaning it will go into defrost for 20 minutes every 4 hours.
• Unit is compressor driven, and you will hear this running if near the fridge.
• Unit has heated glass so you will only get minimal condensation in high humidity (if any at all).
• Do not place in direct sunlight or build in behind a cupboard door.

Specifications:

When using the SCHMICK HUS-EX108 mini bar fridge, observe these safety precautions:

Do not pull the plug directly from the socket without turning ‘OFF’ first.

Do not try to access the unit’s electrics unless authorized to do so and unless the unit is “OFF” and “UNPLUGGED.”

Do not have items near the unit that could be damaged by heat; the condenser coils are located in the walls, so these get quite hot during normal operation.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Do not rest heavy items (including the fridge) on the electrical lead.

CAUTION: Contains flammable gases. This cooler contains a small quantity of R600a refrigerant gas within its sealed system. Repairs should only be performed by a suitably qualified person. The insulation foam contains cyclopentane, which is also flammable.

When setting up the SCHMICK HUS-EX108 mini bar fridge:

After unpacking, dispose of rubbish sensibly.

When moving the fridge, avoid hard jolts and bumps.

Don’t carry the fridge holding the door; always carry using the body of the fridge or use a trolley.

Upon setting up the fridge into your position, ensure it is square and level, using the feet adjustments where needed.

Do not position near sources of heat, like ovens and dishwashers.

Do not position in direct sunlight.

Do not move or tilt while in operation.

Allow as much ventilation wherever and whenever you can; the more ventilation, the more economical the fridge will run and the longer the compressor life you will get.

Ensure your electrical lead hasn’t been damaged. If you see any fault or cut in the power lead, refer to an electrician before plugging in.

Once in position, allow 30 minutes and turn “ON.”

For storage inside the SCHMICK HUS-EX108 mini bar fridge:

It is not recommended to store blood or special pharmaceuticals in the fridge.

Always let warm food cool before placing it into the fridge for storage.

Keep drinks at least 1cm away from walls to allow air flow and to stop bottles freezing on the back wall close to the cold-plate.
