SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

- Check the voltage on the rating plate before use. Only connect the steak dry ager to sockets that correspond to the voltage of the device.

- Children over the age of 8 and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or those with a lack of experience and knowledge may only use the steak dry ager if they are instructed on how to do so by a person responsible for their safety, or if they are supervised and understand the associated risks.

• Make sure that the ventilation openings are open and clean them regularly.

- Do not place any electrical devices in the steak dry ager.

- Be careful not to damage the coolant circuit.

- If the power cord or plug is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, an authorised specialist, or a similarly qualified person.

- Check the power cord regularly for damage. Do not use the steak dry ager with a damaged power cord.

- Do not handle the steak dry ager, the plug or the power cord with wet hands.

- If possible, do not use an extension cord. If you are using one, make sure that the ampere value of the connected device does not exceed the maximum ampere value of the power cord.

- Leave at least 5 cm of space to the sides and 10 cm of space behind the steak dry ager so that the air can circulate sufficiently.

- Close the door as quickly as possible after adding food so that the cold does not escape.

- Place the steak dry ager on a firm, level surface. Do not place it on a soft surface such as a carpet.

- Do not place any objects on the steak dry ager.

- Do not store any flammable or explosive substances in the device.

- Do not use the steak dry ager outdoors.

- Do not pull the plug out of the socket with the cable, but rather hold it by hand when pulling it out.

• Make sure that the power cord does not touch any hot surfaces.

- Only connect the steak dry ager to earthed sockets.

- Do not connect the steak dry ager to sockets with which other kitchen appliances are already connected.

- If the steak dry ager goes out, fails or is switched off, wait 5 minutes before switching it on again, otherwise the compressor could be damaged.

This device contains the refrigerant isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is high in environmental sustainability, but is flammable. Although it is flammable, it will not damage the ozone layer and will not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this refrigerant leads to a somewhat higher noise level from the device. In addition to the compressor noise, you can hear the flow of the refrigerant. This is unavoidable and has no negative impact on the performance of the device. Be careful during transportation to ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged. Leaking refrigerants can irritate the eyes.

Special instructions

• Children aged 3 to 8 years may fill the steak dry ager with food and take food out of the steak dry ager.
• When positioning the steak dry ager, make sure that the power cord is not pinched or damaged.
• Make sure that there are not multiple sockets or power supplies on the back of the device.

To avoid food contamination, please follow the instructions below:

• Prolonged opening of the door can lead to a significant rise in temperature in the compartments of the steak dry ager.
• Regularly clean surfaces that can come into contact with food. Clean the water drain regularly.

WARNING

When using, servicing and disposing of the unit, pay attention to the left symbol on the rear of the unit or on the compressor. This symbol warns of possible fires. There are flammable substances in the refrigerant lines and in the compressor. Keep the appliance away from sources of fire during use, maintenance and disposal.

INSTALLATION

Before first use

Let the device stand for 24 hours before the first use so that the coolant can spread.

During this time, leave the door open so that production-related odours can evaporate.

Note: All models without front ventilation or ventilation slots on the front are not built-in devices and must be free-standing.

Location

The location where you place the device should:

• be sturdy and well ventilated.
• be far away from direct sunlight or other heat sources.
• not be too wet, such as a bathroom or washroom.
• have a level floor.
• have a standardised electrical connection.
• have a socket with surge protection.
- be far away from microwaves, as their interference could have a negative impact on the device.

Furthermore, the ambient temperature in the room should not be very cold or very warm. Cold and warmth may have a negative effect on the function, so that the desired internal temperature will not be reached.

Setup

• Remove all packaging material from and around the steak dry ager.
• Set up the steak dry ager so that the plug is accessible at all times. Unplug the power cord and put the device in its final location. Set it up so that the compressor is free and has no contact with other objects or walls.
• Compensate for any slight floor unevenness before filling the device. Use the adjustable feet for this. To do this, turn the rear feet completely inwards and compensate for the incline with the two front feet.

Note on built-in devices

• All devices with ventilation slots on the front are suitable for installation, but must not be installed in completely closed housings.
• Built-in devices suck in air via the ventilation frame and let it out again via the ventilation frame at the front (some models have the ventilation frame on the back).
• Like many electrical devices, the steak dry ager has many sensitive parts that can be damaged by a power failure or lightning. Your connections should therefore be equipped with surge protection.
• If you install the device in a frame with a door, there must be a ventilation opening in the bottom of the door. In hot climates, slots with a minimum dimension of 40 mm x 200 mm must also be provided at the top of the rear or at the top on both sides of the housing so that cool air can flow in. At least 30 mm of space must be left to the rear wall of the frame. The ventilation slot should not be placed on a side where another device, such as an oven, is already installed.

Cooling system

Note: This model has a side anti-thaw tube and an independent cooling system.

Installation of the ventilation grid

- Take the ventilation frame out of the cabinet and take four 4* 12 screws out of the accessory bag.

- Open the door, align the ventilation frame with the four screw holes in the cabinet floor and tighten the screws with a Phillips screwdriver.

Installation diagram

Fixing the door handle

• Take the handle out of the cabinet and take 2 screws out of the accessory bag.
- Pull open the door seal on the inside of the door and insert the screws into the two grip holes on the door. Place the handle on the screws from the outside and tighten the screws with a Phillips screwdriver.

TIPS FOR STARTING

• Clean the inside of the device with a mild disinfectant.
• The temperature is already set to 1 °C and the air humidity to 85 %. These are the perfect conditions for aging beef and pork.
• The meat must be fresh, a maximum of 5 days after slaughter. Vacuum-aged meat may also be used, but should be left in the device for a maximum of 14 days (remove the film).
  • It is recommended to use cooked beef: use beef from a young animal that is streaky.
• Hang up the whole piece of meat or place the cut meat on the shelf.
• Maximum filling quantity: 2 loin pieces on the bone with a length of 0.5 metres. Two hooks are required for this.
• Maximum filling quantity with shelf insert: a maximum of 20 kg of pieces or strips of meat will fit on the shelves.
• If you let several pieces of meat age on the shelves, you should make sure that a protective layer of fat is preserved and, if possible, let the meat age on the bone. The ideal size per piece is 2-4 kg.
• Wear protective gloves and never touch the meat with your bare hands.
• The perfect aging period for the meat is 25-28 days. An aging period longer than 4 weeks is also possible.

Quality requirements for meat

• The best meat recognised for dry aging is rib eye steak on the bone. It is always best to buy from a butcher who sources their meat from a good quality slaughterhouse.
• The younger the animal, the better the result. It is always recommended to buy a piece of meat that has a good fat content and a high proportion of internal marbling. It is advisable to let the meat ripen either by hanging or in large pieces on the bone. This is because the meat exposed to the air is minimised, which reduces loss of weight.
• The dry aging period is recommended to last at least 21 days, during which the taste will become more intense. Please note: an aging period of up to 6 weeks is possible. The hygienic handling of food should always be considered for best results.
• When the process is complete, the thin crust must be cut off to remove the bone or cut into steaks.

COMMISSIONING AND OPERATION

Before first operation

• Before using the device for the first time, you should clean the interior of the device (steak dry ager) with water and leave the door open for at least 24 hours so that odour residues can escape.
• Set the temperature to 1 °C and the humidity to 82 %. 1 °C is the best temperature for cooked beef and pork.
  • The meat must be fresh, a maximum of 5 days after slaughter.
• It is recommended to use cooked beef: use meat from a young animal that is streaky.
• Hang up the whole piece of meat or place the cut meat on the shelf.

Turn on

Insert the mains plug into the socket and press the On/Off button and hold for a few seconds. When you use the device for the first time (or use it again after a very long time), there will be a difference of a few degrees between the temperature you have selected and the temperature displayed on the screen. This is normal and occurs because the device needs to cool down first. As soon as the device has been running for several hours, the temperature will adjust.

Note: If the device is unplugged, if there is a power failure or if the device has been switched off, you should wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the device. The device cannot be switched on beforehand.

Safety lock

The device has a security lock (not all models feature a security lock). As shown in the illustration, turn the key 90° clockwise (1) to open the lock and 90° counterclockwise (2) to lock it.

TEMPERATURE SETTING

Note: The display shows the actual temperature and humidity inside the device.

The temperature setting is factory set and can be adjusted individually. In the event of a power failure, all of the temperature settings you have made will be deleted and the factory settings will be restored. The control panel of each model has a reminder function.

Note: There is a difference between the temperature inside the device and the temperature that is displayed on the screen: It will take about 12 hours before you notice the effects of the temperature adjustment when the device is full.

Once the temperature has been set, you should not change it if possible. The thermostat keeps the temperature constant with deviations of +/- 2°C . However, the thermal inertia of the steak dry ager and the glass is so great that within this temperature range the actual temperature of the steak dry ager only fluctuates by 0.5°C to 1°C .

Defrost function

The device features an integrated defrost function. When the compressor is stopped, the device will defrost automatically. The defrost water is automatically drained from the storage area of the device. The water that condenses in the container is converted into heat or steam by the compressor in order to maintain the humidity in the storage area. All devices are equipped with a double-layered E-glass door, which has a third inner acrylic layer to minimise condensation on the glass door.

The device is not completely sealed. Fresh air can get in through the drain pipe.

Note: During the cooling cycle, heat will be given off which escapes through the outer surfaces of the device. Avoid touching these surfaces during the cooling cycle.

This unit has an automatic humidification system. The humidification system is located inside the fan cover. When there is no maintenance work to be done, it is forbidden to open the cover and pull out the humidifier.

Note: Since the unit has an automatic water addition function, it must be placed near a water supply from which clean drinking water comes.

Before using the meat ripening oven, first connect the water supply line (3) and then open the inlet valve (1) to ensure that water enters the water tank.

1 Water inlet valve
2 Water inlet
3 Water supply line

This product has a reminder function for refilling water. If the water tank contains too little water, an acoustic signal sounds. At the same time, „E5“ is displayed in the display window to indicate a water shortage fault. When this fault occurs, the illumination lamp flashes.

At this point, it is necessary to manually refill water. The „E5“ display disappears automatically within 10 seconds after the water addition is completed, and the illumination lamp stops flashing.

Note: The addition of water usually requires pure water, mineral water, distilled water or other water with low impurities. Do not add polluted water with impurities and impurities to optimize the quality and taste of the meat in the meat ripening cabinet.

Automatic water exchange and replacement of the suction wadding.

Note: The inlet valve must be closed before replacement!

Place a 2-liter water container under the drain, then unscrew the drain cover to drain the drain as shown in Figure 2.

Disconnect the connecting cables and plugs connected to the fan, water inlet pipe, etc. on the water tank.
