The claret King Edward HFMV is a countertop heated display for bakeries, cafés, takeaway counters and similar operations serving prepared potatoes, pastries and other hot foods. Its traditional appearance and prominent display format support both attended and customer-facing service.

Its traditional, energy-efficient design presents hot food prominently and is intended to encourage impulse purchases. The claret finish gives the heated countertop display a distinctive appearance for customer-facing service areas.

The cabinet has an approximate capacity of 80 baked potatoes, giving operators additional heated display space for a prepared batch. It can also present pastries and other ready-to-serve hot foods rather than being restricted solely to potatoes.

The cabinet is supplied with 3 wire trays and combines heating with internal illumination. This creates a tiered, visible presentation for potatoes and other prepared foods while making the countertop unit easier for customers to browse.

Doors at both the front and rear support self-service or assisted service. Customers can access the display from the front where appropriate, while staff can refill it through the rear during busy periods with less disruption to the browsing area.

The HFMV is a portable plug-in countertop unit, so it can be displayed or put away to match demand. It is single phase, rated at 1438 W, approximately 1.44kW, and operates at 230-240V from a 13A plug.

The merchandiser measures 640 mm high x 515 mm wide x 533 mm deep and weighs 39 kg. Its construction combines stainless steel, aluminium and glass, providing the main footprint and handling details needed when planning a suitable counter position.

This HFMV variant has a deep claret exterior within the red colour family. The claret finish and traditional King Edward styling distinguish it from the black and stainless-steel alternatives.

The thermostatically controlled cabinet has a maximum air-temperature setting of 110°C. Its control reflects cabinet air rather than the food's core temperature, so operators should monitor the food itself and adjust operation to the products being held.

Preheat the merchandiser for 25 minutes at the chosen setting, then load pre-heated food onto the wire trays. Check food temperatures periodically and minimise unnecessary door opening, as repeated opening can cause the cabinet temperature to fall.

Unplug the cabinet and allow it to cool completely. Remove the wire trays and element cover for washing with warm soapy water, rinse them thoroughly and avoid abrasive materials. Remove crumbs from the element area and dry exterior surfaces with a soft cloth.

The claret King Edward HFMV includes a 1-year warranty and is CE marked. These details apply to the heated-display unit itself, with support handled through the supplying business when required.

The claret model uses ordering reference HFMV/CLA and barcode 718603080663. It is supplied as 1 King Edward heated-display unit, allowing its product and colour variant to be distinguished from the black HFMV.
