Chilling and Deep freezing
Pressing the CHILL or the FREEZE key selects respectively a chilling cycle (+3°C) and a deep freezing cycle (-18°C). The cycles can end at the elapsing of a set time or when a set core temperature is reached (in this case it is necessary to use the rod probe.
Based on the setting of parameter P3, the device will propose as default the end of a time-based or temperature-based cycle. To pass from one modality to the other, press again the CHILL key or the FREEZE key .
Once the desired cycle is selected, by pressing the HARD key it is possible to add a PHASE (HARD for chilling and SOFT for deep freezing) that will be executed before the standard phase, therefore passing from one-phase cycles to two-phase cycles.
Example of a temperature-based CHILLING cycle (rod)
Start a temperature-based chilling cycle touching the CHILL key.
To a temperature-based chilling cycle, add the HARD phase by touching the
corresponding key.
NOTE: The selected cycle will propose the pre-loaded settings for this cycle, or the settings of the last cycle executed.
If necessary, change the value of the ROD probe temperature touching the AUX or MENU key.
Start the cycle touching the START key.
Example of a DEEP FREEZING temperature-based cycle (rod)
Start a temperature-based deep freezing cycle touching the FREEZE key.
Convert the deep freezing cycle from “temperature-based” to “time-based” touching again the FREEZE key.
If necessary, change the tempera- ture value of the ROD probetouching the AUX or MENU key.
Start the cycle touching the START key.
ATTENTION:
If the cycle is TEMPERATURE-BASED, the test to check the correct insertion of the rod probe into the food piece to be chilled is performed. If the test is NOT successful, the cycle switches automatically to the time-based modality:
the buzzer emits a sound and the type of cycle indication on the display is converted from temperature-based to time-based.
