What HF
actually means.
HF, log code 22, is the HACCP record the control keeps when the cabinet came back from a blackout above its limit. Like HA it shows without the buzzer and stays until reset, so the kitchen can see that food may have warmed while the power was off.

What to do when HF shows on the commercial applianceKind of codeTemperature and alarms
The controller has seen a temperature outside the band it was set for and is saying so: a box above its alarm point, a fryer vat or an oven cavity that tripped its high-limit, or a dish machine rinse that never came up to heat. Often the cause sits outside the unit, such as a door left open during a delivery, a coil packed with grease, a kitchen far hotter than the maker allows or a booster fed cold water. Checking the door, the coil and the air around the unit is fair; move the product if a cold box stays above 41°F, and book the visit.

Reach-ins, pass-throughs, prep tables and blast chillers: gaskets, hinges, fans, thermostats, condensers and compressors.

A commercial appliance error code appears as letters or numbers on a combi, fryer, reach-in controller, dish machine or laundry machine display, or as a flashing light or an alarm tone.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Victory's own guidance for HF on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Find out how long the power was off and probe the food.
Decide on discard as your health code directs and note it on your log.
Reset HF once recorded.
If HF appears with no outage you know of, book a visit to check the supply to the unit.
Still there?
It usually turns into reach-in and prep table repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
HF does not mean the control failed. It is a food safety note tied to a power loss, different from HA, which covers warm spells during normal running.

A booking with a code goes further when it has the code as shown, the model and serial from the data plate, and a word on whether the unit still holds temperature, heats, rinses or spins. With those three, the office can match the likely part to your unit the same day.
