Unifrost uprights in this family commonly use Dixell, Elitech, or Carel controllers. The exact button names vary, but the owner-safe workflow is usually the same:
Check the current setpoint: press and hold SET (or the setpoint/target key) for 1 to 3 seconds until the setpoint value appears.
Adjust (if permitted): use ▲/▼ to change the setpoint.
Save: press SET again (or wait 5 to 10 seconds) to store it.
Confirm you are reading the right value: most displays show cabinet air temperature, not product temperature.
Safe boundaries for hotel use:
Make changes in small steps (1°C at a time) and wait for the cabinet to stabilise.
