TITLEOPERATION
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Clean the Quickchiller and probes prior to use
and make certain all processing modes are
operating properly before chilling or freezing
foods.
To maintain proper operation of the Quickchiller,
always allow the unit to defrost whenever the
DEFROST OVERDUE” warning appears in
the display.
For optimum performance, allow the Quickchiller
to prechill for a minimum of 30 minutes before
loading pans of food.
Never overload the Quickchiller.
It is important to be familiar with and adhere to
all local food codes.
Cook foods properly in preparation for blast
chilling or freezing.
Foods should be portioned into shallow pans to a
depth not to exceed 2-inches (51mm).
Pans must be covered prior to the chilling or
freezing process.
Always follow the recommended shelf life for
chilled food products. Hold chilled foods
under refrigeration for a maximum of 5 days
including the day of production and the day
of consumption.
According to U.S. food code regulations, all
chilled products must be reheated to an internal
temperature of 165°F (74°C) prior to serving.
DOOR
If the Quickchiller door is opened during any
running chill or freeze cycle, the fans will disengage.
When the door is closed, the fans will reengage and
the chiller will resume operation. When the door
is opened, the display will reverse. When the unit
is in operation and not in the “off mode”, a “DOOR
OPEN” message will appear on the display along with
the normal chill data. If the door is open for more
than 2 minutes, then the beeper will sound every 10
seconds.
FAN OPERATION
During the initial cooling of the Quickchiller,
an evaporator fan delay system will prevent the
chilling fans from engaging until the evaporator
coil temperature is below 30°F (-1°C). The fans will
continue to run until the evaporator coil temperature
is above 60°F (16°C).
The Quickchiller will only trigger an automatic
defrost cycle during the refrigerated 
mode. If the chiller is in any other mode when the
6-hour Fan Timer limit plus one additional hour has
elapsed, the display will indicate a warning message
DEFROST OVERDUE” and the control will produce an
audible signal every ten seconds until a defrost is
conducted.
POWER OUTAGE
POWER WAS OFF” will appear in the display
whenever operation is interrupted by a power
outage. The control will produce an audible signal
every 10 seconds and the display will indicate the
amount of time the power was off. If consecutive
power outages occur before the first outage has been
acknowledged, the control will accumulate the total
amount of outage time up to a period of 4 hours.
After a period of 24 hours, accumulated time will be
shown as greater than 24 hours, i.e., >24.
