INTRODUCTION
Hatco Flav-R-Fresh®Holding and Display Cabinets
are designed to hold prepared foods for prolonged
periods of time while maintaining that “just-made”
quality. Hatco Holding and Display Cabinets provide
the best environment for food products by regulating
the air temperature while at the same time balancing
the humidity level. The use of controlled,
moisturized heat maintains serving temperature and
food texture longer than conventional dry holding
equipment.
The Flav-R-Fresh®air flow pattern is designed
to maintain consistent cabinet temperature without
drying out foods. The precise combination of heat
and humidity creates a “blanket” effect around the
food. The air flow rate enables the cabinet to
recover temperature rapidly after opening and
closing the door.
This manual provides the installation, safety,
and operating instructions for the Flav-R-Fresh®
Holding and Display Cabinets. Hatco recommends
all installation, operating, and safety instructions
appearing in this manual be read prior to installation
or operation of your Hatco Holding and Display
Cabinet. Safety instructions that appear in this
manual after a safety alert symbol and the words
WARNING or CAUTION printed in boldface are very
important. WARNING means there is the
possibility of serious injury or death
to yourself or others. CAUTION means there
is the possibility of minor or moderate injury. The
word NOTICE signifies the possibility of equipment
or property damage only.
Hatco Flav-R-Fresh®Holding and Display Cabinets
are a product of extensive research and field testing.
The materials used were selected for maximum
durability, attractive appearance, and optimum
performance. Every unit is inspected
and tested thoroughly prior to shipment.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Form No. FDWDM-1207 1
IMPORTANT! Read the following important safety information to avoid personal injury
or death, and to avoid damage to the equipment or property.
For safe and proper operation, plug unit into
a properly grounded electrical outlet of
the correct voltage, size, and plug
configuration. If the plug and receptacle do
not match, contact a qualified electrician to
determine and install the proper voltage and
size electrical outlet.
To avoid any injury, turn the POWER switch
OFF, unplug the unit from the power source,
and allow to cool completely before
performing any maintenance or cleaning.
Overfilling can cause electrical shock. The
water reservoir is full when “ O H2O” stops
flashing on the CABINET TEMPERATURE
display. Stop filling when “ O H2O” stops
flashing on the display.
To avoid any injury, turn the POWER switch
OFF and allow the unit to cool before
draining.
To prevent any injury, discontinue use if
power cord is frayed or worn.
To prevent any injury or damage to the unit,
do not pull unit by power cord.
To avoid any injury or damage, the unit
must be serviced by qualified personnel
only.
Only light bulbs that meet or exceed NSF
standards and are specifically designed for
food holding areas may be used. Breakage
of light bulbs not specially coated could
result in personal injury and/or food
contamination.
For safe and proper operation, the display
cabinet must be located 2″ (51 mm) from
combustible walls and materials. If safe
distances are not maintained, discoloration
or combustion could occur.
Holding food at temperatures less than
140°F (60°C) may be dangerous.
Temperatures under 140°F (60°C) promote
the growth of harmful bacteria and toxins in
some foods.
Hatco Corporation is not responsible for the
actual food product serving temperature. It
is the responsibility of the user to assure
that the food product is held and served at
a safe temperature.
WARNING
If service is required on this unit, contact
your Authorized Hatco Service Agent or
contact the Hatco Service Department at
800-558-0607 or 414-671-6350; fax 800-690-
2966; or International fax [phone].
This product has no “user-serviceable”
parts. To avoid damage to the unit or injury
to personnel, use only Authorized Hatco
Service Agents and Genuine Hatco
Replacement Parts when service is
required.
Genuine Hatco Replacement Parts are
specified to operate safely in the
environments in which they are used. Some
aftermarket or generic replacement parts do
not have the characteristics that will allow
them to operate safely in Hatco equipment.
It is essential to use Genuine Hatco
Replacement Parts when repairing Hatco
equipment. Failure to use Genuine Hatco
Replacement Parts may subject operators
of the equipment to hazardous electrical
voltage, resulting in electrical shock or
burn.
Some exterior surfaces on the display
cabinet will get hot. Use caution when
touching these areas to avoid injury.
To avoid any injury or damage, locate the
display cabinet at the proper counter height
in an area that is convenient for use. The
location should be level to prevent the unit
or its contents from accidentally falling and
strong enough to support the weight of the
unit and food.
Unit is not weatherproof. For safe and
proper operation, locate the unit indoors
where the ambient air temperature is a
minimum of 70°F (21°C).
The unit must be transported in an upright
position. Before moving or tipping the unit,
secure all glass surfaces with tape. The
water must be drained from the unit also.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the
unit or personal injury.

GENERA
1. Plug the cabinet into a properly grounded
electrical outlet of the correct voltage, size, and
plug configuration. See the PECIFICATION
section for details.
2. Move the POWER switch to the ON position. 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.
Water Quality Requirement — Incoming water in
excess of 3.0 grains of hardness per gallon
(GPG) (0.75 grains of hardness per liter) must be
treated and softened before being used. Water
containing over 3.0 GPG (0.75 GP ) 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 Figure 9.). Slowly pour the
water into the cup until “LO H2O” stops flashing
on the CABINET TEMPERATURE display.
NOTE: To assure proper operation when using
distilled water, add one teaspoon of salt to
the water reservoir during the initial manual
fill only.
Overfilling can cause electrical shock. The water
reservoir is full when “ O H2O” stops flashing
on the CABINET TEMPERATURE display. Stop
filling when “ O H2O” stops flashing on the
display.
NOTICE
WARNING
Use of softened or distilled water is recommended
to preserve the life of the electrical and mechanical
components in the reservoir. Do not use deionized
water. If “hard” water is used, the reservoir will
require periodic cleaning and deliming. See the
MAINTENANCE section for deliming instructions.
Do not use deionized water. Deionized water will
greatly shorten the life of the water reservoir and
heating element.
NOTE: Product failure caused by deionized water is
not covered by warranty.
NOTE: On the initial fill the water reservoir capacity
is 80 ounces or 2-1/2 quarts (2.3 liters).

TEMPERATURE display shows 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 3-6 hours, depending
on the settings and how frequently the door is
opened. When “LO H2O” is flashing on the
CABINET TEMPERATURE display, add water to the
reservoir. The water reservoir refill capacity is
approximately 64 ounces, or two (2) quarts
(1.9 liters).
Overfilling can cause electrical shock. The water
reservoir is full when “ O H2O” stops flashing
on the CABINET TEMPERATURE display. Stop
filling when “ O H2O” stops flashing on the
display.
Some exterior surfaces on the display cabinet
will get hot. Use caution when touching these
areas to avoid injury.
To prevent any injury, discontinue use if power
cord is frayed or worn.
To prevent any injury or damage to the unit, do
not pull unit by power cord.
Hatco Corporation is not responsible for the

DRAINING THE RESERVOIR
To avoid any injury, turn the power OFF to the
unit and allow to cool before draining.
It is recommended that the Flav-R-Fresh®water
reservoir be drained prior to moving the cabinet and
after removing lime or mineral deposits from the
water reservoir.
To drain the reservoir, locate the valve on the
underside of the ceiling sheet. Position a one gallon
(four liter) container under the valve. Turn the valve
handle from the horizontal position (closed) to the
vertical position (open). Once the reservoir is empty,
return handle to the closed position.
Figure 11. Draining Reservoir Valve
NOTE: If the water used has an excessive amount
of lime or mineral content, follow the
REMOVING LIME AND MINERAL
DEPO IT procedure for periodic cleaning
and deliming of the water reservoir.
Water Quality Requirement — Incoming water in
excess of 3.0 grains of hardness per gallon
(GPG) (0.75 grains of hardness per liter) must be
treated and softened before being used. Water
containing over 3.0 GPG (0.75 GP ) 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.
