4. Relocate the latch plate(s) from the left side to
the right by removing the two mounting screws.
Tighten all screws before proceeding.

5. On single door units rotate the door 180
degrees and align the door mounted hinge
part with the cabinet mounted hinge part and
tap the hinge pin into place so top of pin is
flush with top of the cabinet mounted hinge
part. Invert the door latch by removing black
plastic screw covers and remove the screws
holding the latch in place.

6. On double door units rotate the top-door 180
degrees and mount in the position of the lower
door. Rotate what was the bottom-door 180

degrees and mount in the position of the top
door. Align the door mounted hinge part with
the cabinet mounted hinge part and tap the
hinge pin into place so top of pin is flush with
top of the cabinet mounted hinge part.

7. Relocate the label on the door(s). Be sure that
there are no open screw holes on the front of

C1. HM2000 HOLDING MODULE

For Recommended Holding T emperatures,
see HM2000 guidelines on page 6.

When equipped with a holding module, your

cabinet is designed to maintain the
temperature of HOT prepared foods. The

holding module is equipped with a
thermostatically controlled heater, a blower
for air circulation and a water pan. A POWER
switch is provided with a red light to indicate
when the unit is switched ON. Beside the
POWER switch is the TEMPERATURE
thermostat and its yellow indicator light.

A seven foot, three wire grounded lead cord
is supplied fixed to the module. The cord
cannot be separated from the module, so
be careful when passing the cord through
the cabinet back panel. Likewise, when
installing the module into a cabinet, the cord
must first be fed through the opening in the
cabinet back panel.

1. With the POWER switch OFF, plug the cord
into a standard grounded 20 amp, 125VAC
grounded receptacle on an individual
branch circuit.

CAUTION: THE WATER PAN MUST BE IN
PLACE DURING MODULE OPERATION.

2. To introduce limited humidity, fill the 11/2-quart
capacity water pan to 1/2" from the top with
HOT clean tap water. During operation,
check the water level every 3 hours and refill
as necessary. The unit may be operated
without water if humidity is not desired.

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. Note: This
is not a foot switch. Using it as a foot switch

can damage the switch and make the
cabinet inoperable.

4. Turn the TEMPERATURE thermostat to a setting
of 10. The holding unit is now in operation.

5. After allowing the cabinet to PREHEAT FOR
APPROXIMATELY 45/60 MINUTES, reduce
the thermostat setting to 6/8. In a room of
average temperature (72°F), this should
provide 150°- 170°F. Adjustments to the
temperature may be made as necessary.

THIS IS A HOT FOOD HOLDING CABINET AND
IS NOT INTENDED TO RETHERMALIZE COLD
FOOD. MAKE SURE FOOD AND CABINET ARE
A T PROPER TEMPERA TURES BEFORE
PLACING FOOD IN THE CABINET.

NOTE: The POWER (red) light will glow as soon
as the POWER switch is switched ON and will
continue to glow until switched OFF. The yellow
indicator light will go on and off as the thermostat
cycles. The blower will operate as long as the
POWER switch is ON. If the yellow light is not
illuminated, this indicates that the cabinet has
achieved the preset TEMPERA TURE level, NOT
that the unit has been switched OFF.

3

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 T emperatures,

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
counter-clockwise to decrease temperature.

5. The humidity can be adjusted by turning the
humidity knob clockwise to increase and
counter-clockwise to decrease humidity. If
you wish to hold food without using humidity,
turn the Humidity control to MIN. This will
prevent the cabinet from introducing
additional humidity.

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
TEMPERA TURES 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.

4

9. To install the module, reverse step 8. When
installing the module into the cabinet, the
cord must be fed through the opening in the
cabinet back panel. Be careful that the seals
on the side of the module go inside the
module slides.

To descale the humidity generator:

To clean the humidity generator, use a
commercially available descaling solution
that is compatible with the stainless steel
humidity generator and the aluminum
cabinet interior. Pour the descaling solution
into the water bottle, using the
manufacturer’s recommended dilution. With
the bottle connected to the module, run the
humidity generator at the maximum humidity

setting for the manufacturer’s recommended
time. Then, shut off the module, remove the
water bottle and allow all the solution to drain
out of the module quick disconnect valve.
Empty the water bottle, and refill with clean
water and a cup of baking soda and reinstall
the bottle. Run the cabinet for another 30
minutes with the humidity generator at the
maximum humidity setting. Again, shut off
the module, remove the water bottle,
allowing all the water to drain out of the front
panel quick disconnect valve. Empty the
water bottle and rinse; replace the bottle into
the cabinet and refill with clean, cold water.
The cabinet is now ready to use.

AT NO TIME SHOULD THE MODULE OR
CABINET BE WASHED OR FLOODED WITH
WATER OR LIQUID SOLUTION. NEVER
STEAM CLEAN. SEVERE DAMAGE OR
ELECTRICAL HAZARD COULD RESULT.

1. Turn off master switch.

2. Disconnect the unit from its power source.

WARNING

ALLOW THE UNIT TO COOL BEFORE
CLEANING, AS THE INTERIOR OF THE CABINET
MAY BE HOT ENOUGH TO BURN. ALSO ALLOW
THE WATER IN THE PAN (C199) OR BOTTLE
(FL199) TO COOL BEFORE REMOVAL.

3. Open the door(s) and remove the slide racks
and chimney.

4. If there is water in the pan or bottle, remove
and empty.

5. Remove the module from the cabinet by
lifting up the front enough to clear its detent,
then pull the module away from the cabinet.
The power cord slips through the clearance
hole at the rear of the cabinet.

6. Do not use abrasive cleaners. For every
cleaning method, best results are always
obtained when the cleaner and technique
are matched to the soil conditions involved.
Contact your detergent representative to
ensure the cleaning product being used is
recommended for use on natural and epoxy

coated aluminum. FOLLOW THE

MANUFACTURER’S DIRECTIONS ON
CLEANERS. NEVER MIX CLEANERS.

7. After cleaning, replace all components.
Make sure the slide racks and chimney are
seated in the hangers correctly.

A. SPECIFIC CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

1. 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. Special attention should be
paid to keeping the air-inlet area and the
controls area free of dirt build-up.

2. Do not neglect to clean the under-chassis
area, especially the area above each caster.

3. The cabinet or component(s) must be
thoroughly rinsed to remove any residue that
may stain the materials.

4. When choosing a cleanser, make sure the
cleanser manufacturer recommends its use
on natural and epoxy-coated aluminum.

B. GENERAL CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

1. LIGHT SOIL
If routine (daily) cleaning is practiced, a mild
soap and warm water should be sufficient to
keep the unit clean.

2. HEAVIER SOIL

If cleaning has been postponed, solvent or
emulsion type cleaners that can be applied
with bare hands will give excellent results.
Such cleaners are available under various
brand names and detergent suppliers can
recommend materials appropriate for use on
natural and epoxy-coated aluminum.

NOTE: For every cleaning method, best results
are always obtained when the cleaner and
technique are matched to the soil conditions
involved. To ensure using the proper cleaner for
natural and epoxy-coated aluminum, contact
your detergent representative.

V. MAINTENANCE

A. CABINET MAINTENANCE —

ALL MODELS

Your 199 series cabinet has been designed
to require very little maintenance. With
normal use, cleaning is the only form of
maintenance that need be done on a regular
basis. Keeping the casters free of dirt build­up will go a long way in prolonging their life.

If your cabinet is rolled over rough surfaces
or transported over-the-road, the various
threaded fasteners, i.e., screws and nuts,
should be periodically inspected and
tightened if necessary, particularly the
transport latch, hinge and caster fasteners.

B. MODULE MAINTENANCE

The module in the base of your cabinet has
also been designed to require very little
maintenance. With normal use, cleaning is
the only form of maintenance that need be
done on a regular basis. 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.
Keeping vital areas such as the air-inlet area
and the controls area free of dirt build-up will
go a long way in prolonging the life of the
electrical components. No maintenance is
required on the electrical components.

C. BLOWER MOTOR MAINTENANCE

The blower motor bearings should be

lubricated annually.

1. To gain access to the motor, follow the
instructions listed on page 10.

2. Remove the (2) rubber plugs, (1) located
at each end of motor.

3. Apply 6 drops of a SAE 20 non-detergent
oil to each bearing and re-install plugs.

4. Re-assemble module.

B. MODULE

Your module has been designed to be user­servicable, assuming a basic knowledge of
the operation of electrical devices. This
section has been written to guide the user
step by step, and in layman’s terms, through
the dismantling and servicing of the module.
Before attempting to service your module,
read the appropriate Module Repair
Procedures (found elsewhere in this section)
thoroughly. If you do not understand the
Repair Procedures or prefer not to service
your module yourself, or if your warranty is
still in effect, please contact our Customer
Service Department for the factory
authorized service agency nearest you.

The lead cord plug configuration designates
whether your module uses a 15 or 20 amp
service. Refer to the illustration below to
identify the two different plugs.

c. Remove the water pan/water bottle and

drain water.

d. Unfasten the electrical cover by removing

the three screws along the front of the
module and the two screws along each
edge of the module. Retain this hardware
for re-assembly.

e. Open the module by raising the

component chassis from the electrical
cover and placing the chassis top down
on a dry, non-flammable work surface. IF
NECESSARY TO RECONNECT THE
OPENED MODULE TO A POWER
SOURCE, PRACTICE EXTREME CAUTION
SO AS NOT TO RECEIVE ELECTRICAL
SHOCK FROM EXPOSED COMPONENTS.

2. Refer to the appropriate Module
Replacement Parts Diagram to identify the
internal components. Determine
malfunctioning component(s) by electrical
diagnostic procedures.

3. After servicing, be sure to verify the routing
of each wire with the wiring schematic
before installing electrical cover and
connecting module to power source. Be sure
that the thermostat sensor tube does not
contact any electrical connections.

4. Assemble components using retained
hardware, making sure that no wires are
pinched between the cover and the
component chassis.

5. Install water pan/water bottle. Then, feed
cord through clearance hole in cabinet and
slide module into cabinet.

CAUTION: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT ALL
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS PERTAINING TO
THE SERVICING OF ELECTRICAL
DEVICES BE OBSERVED AT ALL TIMES.

1. Dismantle your module for servicing per the
following instructions.

NOTE: To replace the Thermostat and
Humidity Knobs, or water pan/water bottle, it
is not necessary to dismantle the module.

a. Make sure the lead cord is not plugged

into an outlet. Be certain that the module
and any water in the water pan has
cooled to a temperature safe for handling.

b. Remove module by lifting the front enough

to clear the detent, then pull the module
from the cabinet, grasping it with both
hands as it clears the cabinet. The cord
should slip through the clearance hole in
the back of the cabinet.
