INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on purchase of a Festivé food display cabinet. Festivé designs and manufactures quality cabinets designed to meet the exacting needs of its customers. Please take the time to carefully read and understand this manual. This will help ensure that maximum benefit from the cabinet can be gained. If you have any queries contact your dealer or Festivé.

SAFETY

Please carefully read the important safety information provided below:

1. Do not overload your power supply.
2. The cabinet must be supplied with the voltage specified.
3. Always ensure that the power to the cabinet is earthed.
4. Always disconnect the cabinet from the mains power supply before cleaning, undertaking maintenance or allowing the cabinet to be serviced by a properly qualified tradesman.
5. Keep clear of, and never touch, moving parts.
6. Ensure that staff are familiar with the above safety information, as well as all other information in this manual.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

In order to ensure that the cabinet operates efficiently it is important to spend time preparing the area and the cabinet for installation. Some key points and useful advice are provided below:

1. Location
   Cabinets should always be located away from direct sunlight, draughts, and equipment that generate heat and water vapour.

2. Power Supply
   Ensure a suitable power supply exists. Plug the cabinet into its own power point at the wall (multi boxes are not recommended). Always turn the cabinet on and off at the wall.

3. Site Preparation
   The cabinet should be installed on a level floor, plinth or bench. This ensures proper functioning of doors and condensate management. Any necessary bench cut-outs should have been made prior to installation, and a suitable power point located appropriately. Carefully position the cabinet in its correct position and ensure it is level. Adequate access to the cabinet for loading and cleaning is required.

4. Cabinet Preparation.
   Carefully un-wrap the cabinet and any other parts supplied. Remove all tape and ties etc.

5. Condenser Assembly Unit
   Ensure the condenser assembly (refrigeration) unit has adequate ventilation. It is critical for the effective operation of the cabinet that the condenser fan is able to draw in cool air from the room and disperse hot air into the room. The refrigeration of the cabinet will be one of three options: Condenser Built In (CBI), Condenser in Cradle (CIC), or Remote condenser unit.

6. Condenser Built In (CBI)
   This applies to ACCL and ACCH Compact Chilled with a CBI the refrigeration unit is built into the base of the cabinet and all that needs to be done is fit the cabinet into place and follow the Operating Instructions on page 7.

7. Condenser in Cradle (CIC)
   This applies to the ACBH and ACBL Chilled units with the CIC option. With CIC the condenser assembly unit is already attached to the underneath of the cabinet by a built in cradle.

8. Condenser Unit
   Ensure the condenser unit has adequate ventilation. It is critical for the effective operation of the cabinet that the condenser fan is able to draw in cool air from the room and disperse hot air into the room. The refrigeration (condenser unit) of the cabinet is already attached to the underneath of the cabinet by a built in cradle.

If the cabinet and cradle need to be fitted into joinery, adequate ventilation needs to be provided for the refrigeration unit as shown on page 6.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Switch the cabinet on at the wall.
• Flick down either the one or the two red toggle switches (one for the refrigeration unit and one for the light, if present).
• The digital controller displays the operating temperature that the cabinet is running at.

• The refrigeration unit will begin running and will progressively bring the temperature down to the factory set point temperature of 2°C.
• The cabinet operates at a temperature differential of 2°C from the set point, i.e. the refrigeration unit will stop when the cabinet temperature drops to 2°C and restart when it rises to 4°C.
• To change the temperature setting:
• push the ‘SET’ button on the controller. The ‘set point’ temperature will start flicking on the display
• push the ‘UP ARROW’ on the controller to raise the ‘set point’ temperature setting
• push the ‘DOWN ARROW’ on the controller to lower the ‘set point’ temperature setting
• push the ‘SET’ button to return the display to the operating temperature
• Load the cabinet with pre-chilled products (food display cabinets are not refrigerators and should be loaded with pre-chilled products).
• The cabinet is set to defrost at regular intervals. A defrost button on the controller panel will light up when the cabinet is in defrost mode. The cabinet is fitted with an intelligent defrost system that will automatically shorten or extend the defrost time dependent on requirements.
• Always switch off at the wall.

CLEANING

It is important that the cabinet is regularly cleaned in order to achieve hygienic and efficient operation. Some advice on this is provided below:

• Always turn the cabinet off at the wall before cleaning.
• Do not use bleaches and other aggressive cleaning products (chemicals and scourers) that could damage the cabinet surfaces.
• Never use hot water on glass as this may ‘shock’ the glass and cause ‘thermal breakage’, i. e. shattering of glass due to sudden temperature changes.
• Clean the exterior with soapy water using a soft damp cloth. Never apply too much water and always be careful to minimize moisture on and near the electronic controller and power lead. Dry the exterior immediately afterwards.
• A vacuum cleaner and/or soft brush may be used to collect debris from the blue evaporator coil. Be careful not to bend the fins on the coil. The fins are sharp and cause cuts if caution is not exercised.
• Regularly check that the condenser fins are free from dust, as any build-up will reduce the efficiency of the cabinet and can cause excess power consumption or even compressor failure. Dust and dirt should be removed by brushing (use a soft brush) and vacuuming the fins. On occasions dust build-up in the condenser fins can be extensive and pressurised gas (air or nitrogen) may need to be blown through the fins to clear them. It is recommended that the condenser coil is cleaned monthly, and in cases of high dust exposure that four to six monthly the fins are blown with high pressure gas.

SERVICING
Regular servicing of the cabinet is important for its ongoing efficient operation. Four monthly servicing of the cabinet by a qualified refrigeration technician is required to maintain the warranty of a Festivé refrigerated cabinet – refer Warranty on page 11 of this Manual.

SPARE PARTS

Festivé endeavours to maintain stocks of spare parts for its customers. If spare parts are required, please quote both the serial number of the cabinet and the item number(s) from the list below. It is important to use only Festivé spare parts to ensure compatibility, performance, and meet warranty conditions.
