7.2. WHEN LOADING
• Performed with the unit stopped.
• Open doors as little as possible to avoid the intake of hot air and
humidity.
• Select the temperature using the thermostat, according on the goods
being transported.
• Check the internal temperature of the goods being loaded (using a
probe thermometer).
• Be careful not to block the air intakes on the evaporator section and
the ventilation ducts.
• Leave a free space of about 6 to 8 cm between
load and front wall and 20 cm for the roof.
• Load the product on pallets (gratings) to ensure
the return of free air into the unit and improve
product protection.
• Do not forget to close the doors.
• Before closing the doors, check your load again and make sure no one
is locked in the box.
For stationary use, we recommend placing the box in the shade.
Never leave your unit more than a month without running.
Open the cooling box doors in case of extended stop.
