OPERATION
General
Use the following procedures to operate Flav-R-Fresh
Humidified Impulse Display Cabinets.
WARNING
Read all safety messages in the IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION section before operating this equipment.
Startup
1. Plug unit into a properly grounded electrical receptacle of
the correct voltage, size, and plug configuration. See the
SPECIFICATIONS section for details.
2. Move the Power I/O (on/off) switch to the I (on) position.
• The display lights will turn on and the heating system
will start up.
• On humidified units, the cabinet temperature display will
flash "LO H2O" four times and then flash the cabinet
temperature. It will continue to alternate this way until
the water reservoir is filled. Once the reservoir is full,
"LO H2O" will stop flashing and the display will show the
cabinet temperature.
NOTICE
Use of distilled water in the water reservoir of humidified
units is recommended to preserve the life of electrical and
mechanical components. If non-distilled water is used, the
reservoir will require periodic cleaning and deliming (refer
to the MAINTENANCE section for cleaning procedure).
Unit failure due to lime or mineral deposits is not covered
under warranty.
Do not use deionized or reverse osmosis water. It will
shorten the life of the water pan and heating element.
NOTE: Unit failure caused by deionized or reverse osmosis
water is not covered by warranty.
3. On humidified units, fill the water reservoir with clean
water. To fill the reservoir:
a. Lift up the fill cup cover and pull forward.
b. Slowly pour the water into the cup until "LO H2O" stops
flashing on the cabinet temperature display.
IMPORTANT NOTE
When using distilled water, add one teaspoon of salt to
®
the water reservoir during the initial water fill only. This will
ensure proper operation of the water level sensors.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD: Do not overfill water reservoir.
Overfilling can cause electrical shock. Water reservoir is
full when "LO H2O" stops flashing on cabinet temperature
display. Stop filling when "LO H2O" stops flashing on
display.
NOTE: On the initial fill, the water reservoir capacity is
80 ounces or 2-1/2 quarts (2.3 liters).
4. On humidified units, set the humidity to the desired level
(refer to the "Setting the Humidity Level" procedure
in this section). See the "Food Holding Guide" for
recommendations.
5. Set the air temperature to the desired temperature (refer to
the "Setting the Air Temperature" procedure in this section).
See the "Food Holding Guide" for recommendations.
6. Allow the unit 20 minutes to reach operating temperature
before loading the cabinet with pre-heated food product.
Make sure food product has been heated to the proper
food-safe temperature before placing in unit. Failure to
heat food product properly may result in serious health
risks. This unit is for holding pre-heated food product only.
Hatco Corporation is not responsible for the actual food
product serving temperature. It is the responsibility of the
user to ensure that the food product is held and served at
a safe temperature.
BURN HAZARD: Some exterior surfaces on the unit will get
hot. Use caution when touching these areas.
