IMPORTANT: Use the storage function sparingly. After chilling, food products should be
placed in storage cabinets.
HARD BLAST CHILLING
When the HARD function is used, chilling takes place in two stages:
• an initial “Hard” stage when the air temperature is brought down to below 0°C in order to
accelerate chilling;
• a second “Soft” stage, involving air temperatures around 0°C.

HARD BLAST CHILLING BY TEMPERATURE
• Press push-button 3
(relative LED lights up), then press push-button 5
to select
the temperature mode (LED 5A
on). Insert the core probe into the core of the product
to be chilled.
• Start up the cycle by pressing push-button 6
. LED 5A
and those relative to the push-
buttons pressed illuminate throughout the cycle, while LEDs 13
flash.
• Display 15
indicates the maximum blast chilling time (starting temperature to end of
the blast chilling temperature - factory setting - 90 minutes).
• The temperature measured by the core probe is shown by display 16
.
• The instrument timer starts the countdown of the maximum blast chilling time as soon as the
temperature measured by the core probe falls below the temperature of +65°C (the dot at
the bottom right of display 15
flashes).
• Once the cycle has been started, the appliance operates initially with an air temperature
below 0°C (LED on push-button 3
flashes), then with temperatures around 0°C (LED on
push-button 3
on).
NB:
The first stage of the cycle is completed when the core probe detects a temperature of
+20°C in the product core.
• The blast chilling phase ends only when the core probe (inserted in the product core) indi-
cates that the set blast chilling temperature (+3°C) has been reached as signalled by an
intermittent beep for a minute. During the beep, LEDs 13
and 14
flash.
Display 16
indicates the temperature inside the cell, while display 15
shows
blast chilling time reset to zero.
• The alarm (ALL 14) and conservation functions cut in with relative indicators in the same
way as for timed Soft blast chilling.
• Press push-button 6
to set the appliance to STOP status (relative LED switches off),
ready for a new cycle.
