Note:
• When the operation is started in high ambient temperature, the filter lamp is sometimes flashed. In this
case, the lamp is off automatically when the chamber temperature is getting lower.
• The freezer resumes the operation after power failure with the temperature setting before power failure
as the chamber temperature setting and alarm temperature setting are memorized in the nonvolatile
memory.
• The battery for power failure alarm is an article for consumption. It is recommended that the battery
will be replaced about every 3 years. Contact Sanyo sales representative or agent at the time of
replacement of the battery for recycling.
• Fan motors are expendable supplies. Replace them for about every 6 years. Contact Sanyo sales
representative or agent at the time of replacement of the fan motor.
• The chamber temperature is displayed for 5 seconds by pressing alarm buzzer stop key (BUZZER)
during power failure alarm. The alarm lamp keeps flashing.
