7.2 Evaporator
Some COMPACT CLASSIC models have "O" shaped corner evaporators, other models
instead have at evaporators. Flat evaporators can be folded/bent to adapt to go
into a compartment. Specic areas in which these can be bent exist for this purpose.
See the nal part of this paragraph to nd out which are the bending zones for each
model and how to proceed.
Evaporator installaon does not require bending.
The instrucons below should be followed when installing an evaporator not
requiring bending inside a compartment to convert it into a fridge or freezer:
1. Carefully plan the evaporator posion: the locaon on the side of the
compartment where you can install the internal unit and make a hole in which to
pass quick couplings.
2. The evaporator must be installed so that it covers as wide an area as possible of
the vercal wall. For freezer version installaon, posion so as to reach 2 or more
sides where possible. The evaporator must be installed as high as possible inside
the compartment to be cooled to opmise yield and temperature distribuon
inside the compartment.
3. It is very important that the short part of the hose aached to the evaporator via
a jumper remain directed towards the wall.
Be sure to leave enough space for this hose because it should not be removed in
any case from its mounng to alter the length.
4. Both the sucon hose and the small capillary hose should be rolled up carefully
before installing the evaporator, keeping the protecve covers on connecons as
long as the connecon is not going to be made. Starng from the inside of the
compartment to be cooled, lay the hose with its two connecons through the
hole made previously on the bulkhead unl reaching the compressor, making
sure not to choke or crush the hose. The excess part of the hose must be carefully
wound in a spiral (Ø = 30 cm) before being fastened to thus prevent resulng
vibraon or noise. These acons must be completed before removing quick
coupling protecons.
5. Mark the posion of the mounng holes using the screws and spacers provided.
Do not use screws that are longer than necessary as they could completely pierce
wall insulaon.
6. Install the evaporator screwing the screws and spacers into the previously made
holes.
