It is not necessary at the end of the operating day to disrupt the TEMPERATURE setting in order to turn the unit OFF. By switching the POWER switch to OFF, the unit is no longer operating. By switching the POWER switch to ON when resuming operations, the cabinet setting will be at the previous set point.
C2. FL2000 HIGH HUMIDITY HOLDING MODULE
For Recommended Holding Temperatures, see FL2000 guidelines on page 5.
When equipped with a high humidity module your cabinet is designed to maintain the temperature and moisture content of prepared foods. The module has controls for heat and humidity, a blower for air circulation and a removable water bottle.
A POWER on/off switch is provided with a red light to indicate when the unit is ON. Beside the POWER switch are the TEMPERATURE and HUMIDITY control knobs and yellow lights to indicate when each element is on.
A seven foot, three wire, grounded cord is supplied as part of the module.
1.With the POWER switch OFF, plug the cord into a standard 20 amp, 125VAC grounded receptacle on an individual branch circuit.
THE WATER BOTTLE SHOULD BE IN PLACE PRIOR TO AND DURING MODULE OPERATION. Push the bottle in until you hear a click (indicating the valve half in the water bottle has engaged the valve half in the control panel).
2.To introduce humidity, fill the 2 gallon capacity water bottle to the fill spout with clean, cold tap water. If you have hard tap water, use distilled water in the bottle. During operation, check the water level every several hours and refill as necessary. The unit may be operated without water if humidity is not desired. If humidity is not required, turn the humidity knob to the OFF position. There is no need to remove any water from the bottle. During extended periods of operation without humidity, the bottle should be emptied of water. The next time humidity is required, clean and rinse the bottle and install it into the cabinet before refilling with clean, cold water. If the cabinet is to be used for transporting food, empty the water bottle first.
3.Push the POWER switch to the ON position by depressing the top of the switch. The red POWER lens in the switch will glow and the blower will begin circulating air. The thermometer display will show cabinet temperature. Note: This is not a foot switch. Using it as a foot switch can damage the switch and make the cabinet inoperable.
4.The thermometer display shows the current temperature in the cabinet. The temperature setting can be adjusted by turning the
temperature knob clockwise to increase and
5.The humidity can be adjusted by turning the humidity knob clockwise to increase and
6.A buzzer alarm is located in the module to indicate low water level. Refilling the bottle will turn the buzzer off. If the bottle is not filled promptly, the humidity will begin dropping off in the cabinet. The bottle may be filled through the pour spout. The maximum fill level is to the fill opening. Turning the Humidity knob to MIN will stop the buzzer until water can be added. Then reset the humidity knob to the desired position.
7.Allow the cabinet APPROXIMATELY 45 to 60 MINUTES to reach the desired settings. THIS IS A HOT FOOD HOLDING CABINET AND IS NOT INTENDED TO RETHERMALIZE COLD FOOD. MAKE SURE FOOD
AND CABINET ARE AT PROPER TEMPERATURES BEFORE PLACING FOOD IN THE CABINET.
NOTE: The POWER switch red light will glow as soon as the POWER switch is turned ON. The yellow indicator light to the left of each control knob will go on and off as controls cycle the temperature and/or humidity elements. The blower will operate as long as the POWER switch is ON. If the yellow indicator light for the temperature control knob is not illuminated, this indicates that the cabinet has achieved the set TEMPERATURE. The light for the humidity control knob will continue to cycle on and off at a regular rate to maintain the desired humidity. It is not necessary at the end of the operating day to disrupt the TEMPERATURE or HUMIDITY settings in order to turn the unit OFF. By pushing the POWER switch to OFF, the unit is no longer operating. By pushing the POWER switch to ON when resuming operations, the cabinet settings will be at the previous settings.
8.The module can be removed for routine cleaning. WHEN CLEANING, DO NOT SPRAY OR POUR WATER ON THE MODULE AND DO NOT IMMERSE THE MODULE IN WATER. WIPE WITH A DAMP CLOTH AND DRY WITH A TOWEL. Turn the module off and remove the water bottle (this will allow the humidity generator to drain), racks and chimney. Remove the module from the cabinet by lifting the front up enough to clear the module slide detents, then pull the module from the cabinet, grasping it with both hands as it clears the cabinet. The cord cannot be separated from the module, so be careful when passing the cord through the cabinet back panel.
