ENED EDGE TOOLS.
8.2.- CABINET CLEANING
Clean the inside of the cabinet with a
sponge and bicarbonate of soda
solution, taking particular care in
cleaning the door gasket, the grills
and the evaporator. Rinse with water
and dry with a soft cloth.
8.3.- CONDENSER CLEANING
Check that the air intake and outlet
are clear of loose objects. Switch off
the Frigomatic equipment before
cleaning the condenser and the fan
using a vacuum cleaner and/or soft
brush.
WARNING: Please take care not to
bend the condenser fins (on air
cooled models).
For the Frigomatic “W”, close the
water intake then clean the filter.
Check the water filter gasket and
replace it when necessary.
Reassemble the strainer, open the
intake valve and check that the flow is
correct and that there are no leaks.
For the Frigomatic K check periodical-
ly the keelcooler heat exchanger for
corrosion, and that it is firmly con-
nected to the negative of the bat-
tery.The Keel cooler heat exchanger
(both standard and ground plate
model) can be cleaned using a brush.
8.4.- PERIOD GENERAL CHECK
Once a year have the unit checked by
an authorised Frigoboat Service
Dealer for the smooth running.
9 - MINOR PROBLEMS
FIRST.- Wait 1 minute: There is up to
1 minutes delay between power ON
and compressor starting. Allow
enough time.
Low voltage cut out: The cut out oper-
ates when the voltage entering the
controller falls below 10.4V(21V).
In case of doubt charge the battery.
Then check the voltage during com-
pressor start as wiring faults can
cause an artificial voltage drop on
start up amperages.
9.1.- THE BOX IS TOO COLD OR
THE COMPRESSOR RUNS CONTI-
NOUSLY
9.1.1.- Turn the thermostat clockwise
towards “ 1 “. If the box still too cold
with thermostat set at “1” then stop
the compressor putting the thermo-
stat to “O” or switching off the fridge
switch. Use this switch to run the
compressor 15 minutes every 1 - 3
hours to keep the box at the normal
temperature (+2° to +6°C) - (36°F /
43°F).
Have the unit checked by an autho-
rised Frigoboat Service.
9.2.- THE BOX IS NOT COLD
ENOUGH - THE COMPRESSOR
RUNS NORMALLY
9.2.1.- Remove any warm food from
the box and let it cool down to ambi-
ent temperature before storing it
again.
9.2.2.- Check the door is perfectly
closed and the door gasket fits per-
fectly and nothing prevents the door
gasket to seal.
9.2.3.- Check that the compressor air
intake and outlet are clear of obstruc-
tions and the condenser is clean.
9.2.4.- When the compressor is run-
ning, the fan should run in the air-
cooled models and the pump should
run and water flow in the “W” models.
9.3. - THE COMPRESSOR STARTS
BUT STOPS ALMOST IMMEDIATE-
LY AFTERWARDS
9.3.1. - Check that the voltage is cor-
rect, if in doubt charge the battery.
9.3.2. - Check that all of the connec-
tions and the fuse in the supply from
the battery are well tightened and not
corroded.
In winter the compressor temperature
should be above 0°C
9.3.3.- Disconnect terminal “F” from
the Electronic Controller. If the com-
pressor then runs correctly, check the
fan or pump or pump relay as the
amperage is to high. As soon as you
can, get an authorized Frigoboat
Service agent to check the unit.
9.4.- THE COMPRESSOR DOES
NOT START
9.4.1.- As above there is a delay
between the power on and the com-
pressor start.
Allow at least 1 minute.
9.4.2. - On the Electronic Controller
check that: - The voltage between “+ “
and “- “ is 12V (24 V) on compressor
start - The thermostat is set on “7”.
9.4.3.- Bridge terminal “T” and “C”
(thermostat). If the compressor then
starts, leave the bridge. Run and stop
the system using the extemal (panel)
switch (See 9.1.1). As soon as you
can replace the thermostat as it is
broken. If the compressor doesn’t
start, call the authorized Frigoboat
Service.
9.5.- FUSES 12V (24V SYSTEMS
INTO BRACKETS)
9. 5.1. - Fuse 15A (7.5A) on DC sup-
ply (+) from battery located at the
yacht panel or at battery main switch.
Fuse 3A on pump line (W only). Type
6x30 glass normal fast acting.
Fuse 2A on voltage divider 24-12V
(E252400). Type 5x20 normal, glass
fast acting.(only in 24 V installations)
Fuse 5A
on pump interface
(E250206). Type 5x20 glass normal
fast. (only when a pump is connected
to several units W).
