Initial Start-Up

When power is applied to the unit, the control will

briefly display all symbols, and the Snow Flake

symbol will be displayed (if unit is calling for cool-

ing). There may be a brief delay prior to the evapora-

tor fan turning on, as the fan will not turn on until

the evaporator probe temperature drops to the

perspective start temperature (below 70°F). When

the evaporator fan is activated the Fan symbol will

be displayed. The temperature control feature for

the evaporator fan is a feature applicable to Whis-

perKOOL. This is the Advance Product Safety Tech-

nology (APST), which ensures that in the possible

event of a cooling deficiency, the heat from the

indoor fan will not raise the temperature of the wine

cellar, which could otherwise have an adverse effect

on the wine aging process.

Normal System Cycle

After the bottle probe has reached the set point (all

units are shipped with the set point of 55°F and a dif-

ferential of 1°F), the compressor and the condenser

fan will turn off, but the indoor fan will continue to

run for about 5 minutes, which is a feature of the

WhisperKOOL Humidity Management (WHM) sys-

tem. The WHM is an adjustable feature which allows

the customer the convenience of managing the hu-

midity enhancement of their wine cellar. The WHM

is one of the many Customer Preference Selection

features which allow the customer the ability to fine

tune the controls.

Anti Short Cycle

The Anti Short Cycle ensures that the unit will re-

main off for a period of 5 minutes after the unit has

reached the set point to allow the pressure in the

refrigeration system to equalize prior to starting the

compressor.

Anti Frost Cycle

The Anti Frost Cycle is a precautionary measure, as

icing or frosting of the coil does not occur during

normal operation. The system will go through a

defrost cycle every 4 hours. During the defrost cycle,

the indoor fan will provide air flow across the indoor

coil, which will evaporate any frost accumulation.

Low Ambient Conditions

If the condensing unit is installed outside (which will

allow the condenser to be exposed to low ambient

temperatures), the condenser fan may cycle on and

off. The purpose of the fan cycling is to maintain

the system high side pressure, which will ensure

an adequate refrigeration process. The fan cycling

process is accomplished by way of a Johnson Control

attached to the condensing unit.

Bottle Probe Failure Protection

In the event that a bottle probe should fail, the APST

(Advance Product Safety Technology) will automati-

cally transition the Refrigeration Compressor cycles

to a pre-determined time series (based on detailed

laboratory testing), which will ensure that the prod-

uct is kept within the safe range.

Remote Control Panel (standard on ducted units)

The remote keypad is designed to give the user the

ability to monitor and change cellar conditions when

the evaporating unit is placed in a remote location

outside of the cellar.
