OPERATION
1. Plug the cabinet into an electrical outlet of the correct voltage,
size and plug configuration. See
ELECTRICAL
SPECIFICATIONS
for details.
2. Turn the power switch on the control panel to “on”.
The indicator lights will light up at this time. See 7 .
CAUTION
Water supply in excess of .75 grains of hardness per liter
(3.0 grains of hardness per gallon [GPH] ) must be treated and
softened before being used. Water containing over .75 GPL
(3.0 GPH) will decrease the efficiency and reduce the operating
life of the unit.
NOTE:
Product failure caused by liming or sediment buildup is not
covered under warranty.
3. Fill the water reservoir with
softened
or
distilled
water. To fill
the reservoir, lift up the fill cup cover and pull forward.
See 7 . Slowly pour the water into the cup until the red light
for low water indication goes off.
WARNING
Overfilling can cause electrical shock. Stop filling when
low-water light goes off.
Use of softened or distilled water is recommended to preserve
the life of the electrical and mechanical components
in the reservoir. If “hard” water is used, the reservoir will
require periodic cleaning and deliming. See
MAINTENANCE
for deliming instructions.
NOTE:
On the
initial
fill the water reservoir capacity is 2.8 L
(96 ounces or 3/4 of a gallon).
4. Set the humidity selector to the desired level. Set
the temperature selector to the desired temperature. See
the
Food Holding Guide
for recommendations.
NOTE:
Temperature and humidity settings may vary depending
upon product make-up and consistency. The temperature indicator
displays the lowest temperature point inside the cabinet, not the
product temperature.
Allow 20 minutes to preheat a full reservoir of water.
The Flav-R-Fresh is then ready to hold foods at the humidity
and temperature selected.
The reservoir capacity permits uninterrupted operation
for approximately 3 to 6 hours, depending on the settings and how
frequently the door is opened. When the red low water indicator
light is lit, add water to the reservoir. The water reservoir refill
capacity is approximately 1.4 L (48 ounces or 3 pints). Units with
the Auto-Fill option are filled automatically when the red low water
indicator light comes on.
CAUTION
Some exterior surfaces on the Display Cabinet will get hot.
Use caution when touching these areas to avoid injury.
