USING YOUR MICROSENTRY™ REFRIGERATOR CONTROL

During initial startup, or anytime power is interrupted, there will

be an approximate 5 minute delay before the refrigerator starts.

During this period the controller will be assessing the tempera-

ture in the refrigerator and the display will appear erratic, this is

normal. The desired temperature set point can be programmed

during this start up period.

Starting your refrigerator

The refrigerator will begin start up when initially plugged in or

when power resumes after a power outage. At this time the re-

frigerator will take approximately 5 minutes to begin running as

noted above. If the refrigerator has been turned off during use,

“OFF” will appear on the display. To start the refrigerator from

the “OFF” position press and hold the ON/OFF button for three

seconds.

Set temperature

To set temperature set point, press and continue to hold “SET”

button. After one second, set point will be displayed. While

holding “SET” button use the “WARMER” or “COLDER” button to

desired set point.

NOTE: Momentarily pressing & releasing “SET” button will access

information menu of control. Refer to appendix A for information

on this feature.

Refrigerator operation

The available temperature range of the refrigerator is 1° to 7° C.

It may take up to 24 hours for your refrigerator to reach desired

temperature. This will depend on amount of contents loaded

and number of openings and closings of the door.

For best results allow refrigerator to “pull down” to desired set

point before loading. Once contents are loaded, allow at least

48 hours for temperature to stabilize before making any adjust-

ments to the set point.

Alarms

Your MicroSentry™ refrigerator control will monitor refrigerator

function and alert you with a series of audible and visual alarms.

Door Ajar Alarm: If the door has been left

open for over five (5) minutes, the alarm

will sound in one (1) second intervals. The

display panel will flash “do” and the LED light will be a steady

amber color. This will stop as soon as the door is closed.

High and Low Temperature Alarm: If your

unit reaches an unacceptable temperature

outside of your set point, the alarm will

sound in one (1) second intervals. The

display panel will flash either “hi” or “Lo”

depending upon the condition and the LED light will be a steady

amber color. “hi” indicates that the temperature is 5.5°C above

the set point and “Lo” indicates that the temperature is 5.5°C

below the set point. The alarm will remain active until the condi-

tion is corrected.

NOTE: During initial appliance start-up, the high temperature

alarm may sound until the interior temperature reaches set

point.
