OWNER’S MANUAL
BREEZAIRE SENTRY III Plus Controller
This wine cooler controller is a specially designed state-of-the-art microprocessor product
which provides the user many flexible capabilities, plus a degree of built-in safety features
and “user friendliness” to provide a maximum of utility and reliable operation for your wine
storage benefit for years to come.
FEATURES OVERVIEW:
1. Adjustable storage temperature
2. Built-in compressor protection timing functions
3. Special alarm display features
4. Permanent retention of user adjustments during power outage
5. Independent selectable evaporator fan operation
6. Automatic Over-Heat protection
7. User-selectable operating and temperature display conditions
8. Automatic sensor error monitoring
9. Emergency manual operation
When the unit is first powered up, the display will momentarily show
“ o F” (or “°C”), then the current wine storage
temperature. If the temperature is above the desired set-point, the unit will start cooling.
NOTE: During the initial power-up of the unit, you should leave the door to your wine cellar or cabinet closed,
in order to allow the unit to effectively cool the storage space before storing your wines. If the initial
temperature is above 70°F and insufficient cooling is detected by the temperature sensor in the unit within the
first 30 minutes of operation, the unit will automatically shut off, and the display will flash alternately
“E1” and
the temperature. You may re-start the unit by (1) a manual RESET (see below), or (2) unplugging it for 10
minutes or more.
A “call for cooling” will cause the right-hand decimal of the display to flash, then will be on steady when the chiller
actually runs. The chiller will run for a minimum of 1 minute, for the compressor to stabilize.
The above numbered features are described below:
1. The storage temperature factory setting is 55
o
F (13°C). To change the desired wine storage temperature (set-
point), press and hold the SET button. Within five seconds, press either the WARMER or COOLER button to raise or
lower the set-point, within the range of 45
o
-65
o
F (7-18°C), then release the SET button to return to normal storage
temperature display.
2. When the unit shuts off, or if there is a momentary power outage, there is an automatic delay of 5 minutes before it
will be enabled to re-
start. This is to protect your compressor from possible damage due to “short-cycling”. Upon a “call
for cooling” during this delay, the lower right-hand dot on the display will blink, as explained above.
3. As an alert to you, the display will alternately flash
“AL” and the temperature if the storage temperature rises above
a preset alarm temperature. The alarm factory setting is 62
o
F (17
o
C). You may adjust this alarm setting (see 7,
below). The unit will continue to operate while in the alarm mode, unless the temperature rises to 75°F (24°C), as
described in 6, below.
