BOOST FUNCTION
The boost feature accelerates the chilling process with two available options: 2-hour expedited
maximum chilling and continuous (24 hrs/day, 7 days/week) maximum chilling.
To engage the boost feaure, press BOOST once. The LED on the left marked “2 hours” will light. The
boost function is now set to accellerate chilling for 2 hours, after which boosted chilling will stop and
the chiller will return to the regular setting.
To set the boost function to constant operation, press BOOST twice. The LED under “24/7” will light.
The chiller will now continue in boosted mode until the BOOST pad is pressed again.
COMPRESSOR OPERATION:
The refrigeration compressor will automatically turn off when the water reaches, or is below, the set
temperature. When the compressor turns off, it will stay off for approximately 3 minutes or until the
water is 3 degrees above the set temperature.
An indicator light in the top right portion of the display will appear when the compressor is active. The
indicator light will disappear when the set water temperature has been reached, and will blink when
the compressor is in the 3 minute protection mode.
ERROR CODE:
Certain text will appear on the display panel in the event of an error. “P1” is an example that means
there is a defect in the temperature sensor. If error codes are appearing on the display, return the unit
to the original place of purchase for a warranty assessment.
