Glass shelves
•The cake display is equipped with
6 glass
shelves, which can be
mounted at different
height,
rotated,
removed.
•Changing the height at which the glass shelves are mounted enables storing in
the device of cakes and layer cakes of different height. Place three brackets with
pads for every shelf at the desired height in the existing mounting holes in the
housing side strips and place glass shelves on these brackets.
•Glass shelves may be rotated by moving them left or right along the pads on
brackets, which makes it easy to put in or take out layer cakes, cakes, snacks, etc.,
which enables better display of food products.
•Glass shelves are removable for easier height adjustment and cleaning, as well as
cleaning of the interior of the cake display.
Cooling cakes
•The forced air cooling system with a fan ensures that the temperature inside the
cake display is evenly distributed on all levels.
•When the set temperature has been reached inside the device, the LED cooling
indicator goes off and the device is ready to hold cakes, layer cakes, snacks etc.
•Open the glass door and place the prepared cakes on the glass shelves.
NOTE!
Do not place warm cakes, layers cakes, snacks etc. inside the cake
display, wait until they reach room temperature.
•To reduce energy loss during the cooling process, open the glass door for as short
a time as possible.
•After taking out the desired cakes from the cake display, close the glass door.
•If the device is to remain unused for a period of time, disconnect it from the power
supply (pull the plug out the socket!).

regulator
•Pull the plug and reinsert it
into the socket correctly
•Check the fuse, check
the device by connecting
it to another socket
•Check the power source
•Contact the sales agent
Insufficient
cooling capacity
•Device is too close to
source heat or direct
sunlight
•Poor air circulation in
the device
•Improper temperature
setting
•Device is overfilled
•Ensure sufficient distance
between the device and
heat sources
•Ensure sufficient distance from
walls and other objects
•Check the settings, set lower
temperature value
•Remove excess food products
Device emits
loud sound
•Device is placed on an
uneven surface
•Device is touching the wall
or other objects
•Place the device on an even
