Weight Limits for Chef Base Fridge

To ensure a safe workplace, carefully examine and make note of how much weight you plan to place on the bench top of the chef base fridge. SKOPE recommends no greater than 200kg for the 2 drawer fridge and no greater than 400kg for the 4 drawer fridge.

Electronic Controller

The electronic controller regulates the cabinet internal temperature, signals alarms and captures operational information. The internal temperature is factory set for storage of perishable product. To customise the settings to your requirements and view historical data, download the SKOPE-connect app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, and connect via Bluetooth® wireless technology.

Lights
Cabinets with hinged doors have interior lights which switch on and off automatically depending on usage.

Marine Edge
A Marine Edge on top of a chef base helps contain drips and spills. It also discourages items and equipment from slipping off the table, which increases safety.
Heat Shield
A heat shield is fitted inside the bench top of the chef base which can deflect some of the heat from the cooking equipment away from the refrigerated space. It is important to follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines to maintain food safe holding temperatures and prolong the unit’s life.

Routine Cleaning

Ensure the cabinet is unplugged from the power supply before cleaning.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT use abrasive, corrosive or solvent based cleaners, as this could damage the protective coating on the door exterior.
