6.3.3 External alarm contacts
To test the external alarm contacts, ensure at least one heater chamber is active and then disconnect the MINC
from mains power. The contacts should close approximately 2 minutes later. Once the contacts close reconnect the
device to mains power and allow to operate for 150 minutes.
Open an active chamber lid and mist the chamber with cold water. During this period the temperature display
should display “Lid” and a ‘beep’ should be emitted from the MINC approximately every 30 seconds. The contacts
should close approximately 2 minutes later. If the contacts fail to close then contact your Cook representative.
6.4 Inspection by an authorised service agent
Inspections at least once a year
For ongoing operational safety of the MINC, an authorised
service agent must maintain the device annually as per Service Manual
SMA30002. The service agent will asses the operational functionality of
the gas and temperature control systems and external alarm contacts.
Authorised service agents
All services such as alterations, repairs, calibrations etc., may only be
performed by the manufacturer or by service agents who are authorised
by the manufacturer as per Service Manual SMA30002.
Liability
The manufacturer is free from all liability for the operational safety of
the MINC if the device has been wilfully opened and unauthorised
persons have performed repairs or alterations on it during the warranty
period.
Certification
The MINC owner will receive a signed certificate from the service agent
for all inspections or repairs. This certificate states the type and scope
of the services rendered, the service date and the name of the service
