IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

To reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage when using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces! Always Use Handles. Always use hot pads or pot holders until the unit cools.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse tray base, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow cooling completely before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning or storing the appliance.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Call the Cadco Factory Service Department at 860-738-2500 for the nearest authorized service center. (**See page 7 for Warranty info. (Cart/ buffet server warranty applies in 48 contiguous US states  only.)
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
10.  Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner.
11.  It is recommended that this appliance not be moved when it contains hot oil or other hot liquid.
12. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. They can scratch and ruin the finish of your unit.
13. Always attach the plug to the appliance first, then plug the cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to “Off,” then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
14. Do not use appliances for other than intended use.
15. DO NOT USE PLASTIC DISHES OR PLASTIC WRAP ON

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: A 72″(6′) power supply cord (or cord set) has been provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use. If a long cord set or extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
The high-tech warming surface will remain unblemished for a long time with appropriate care. The high-grade, long-life stainless steam pans allow for an attractive alternative for keeping appetizers and other foods warm. For best results use nylon, plastic, wooden, or rubber utensils.

Attach Sneeze Guard

Always attach sneeze guard to cart before attaching pan holder

1. LOOSEN BUT DO NOT REMOVE the 4 Sneeze Guard Locking Knobs on Cart Top Surface.
2. Position the Keyhole Slots on the Sneeze Guard over the Sneeze Guard Locking Knobs and lower the Sneeze Guard until it is flush with the Cart surface.
3. Slide the Sneeze Guard into place toward the back of a cart.
4. Tighten the Sneeze Guard Locking Knobs.
5. See pages 4-5 for how to attach the Pan Holder.

HOW TO USE

Before using it for the first time, become familiar with the Cart features, Fig. A. Wash removable parts in warm sudsy water, rinse, and dry. Clean the buffet server & cart with a mild detergent and a soft moist cloth. Do not use any scouring agents! DO NOT SUBMERGE THE BUFFET SERVER CART TOP OR LET THE PLUG COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER. Rinse and wipe dry. Do not allow water to spill or seep into the frame. See Care & Cleaning Instructions for details.

Assemble Cart

1. See page 3 for how to attach Sneeze Guard. Do this before attaching the pan holder.
2. Place the pan holder (Fig. B1) over the cart’s top warming surface, with 2 keyhole slots and 2 open slots on the inside flaps of the pan holder positioned over the 4 locking knobs on the warming surface (Figs. B2 – B3). Press pan holder down onto warming surface, and slide pan holder until knobs engage (Fig. B4). Tighten knobs to keep pan holder in place. (Reverse steps to remove pan holder for cleaning.)
3. Place steam pans into pan holder, and cover pans with the clear rolltop lid.
4. (When actually using a cart to keep foods warm) place steam pans with hot food into the pan holder, and put the lid in place.
5. Place any optional appliances (such as a hot plate) on the top cart surface.
6. Place optional oven inside the cart as shown, if applicable.* ‘Cord for optional oven exits the cart through cord holes in the cart storage shelves.
7. See page 7 for a suggested list of optional Cadco appliances that will fit on this cart and optional accessories.

 Initial Use (Buffet Server) (Fig. C)

1. Plug the cart into a 120-volt outlet.
2. Turn the unit on by pressing the ON/OFF rocker switch at the back of the cart to the ON position.
3. Turn the variable thermostat knob counterclockwise to the maximum setting.
4. Heat the warming base without foods on it for approximately 10 minutes in order to seal the special coating. (Only the top level of the cart in the buffet server area heats up.) Temporary smoking is normal during initial use.

Subsequent Use:

1. The buffet server heating element is equipped with a variable thermostat knob, located at the back of the cart. (Fig. C) Buffet server heat range is from 155′ to 200′ F, to keep foods at serving temperatures. (Buffet server is designed for keeping food warm, not for warming up cold food.) For best results, use the maximum heat setting to quickly reach your desired temperature, then adjust to the desired temperature.
2. The light will come on cs-ily during the heat cycle. Due to the low wattage necessary for buffet servers, it can be 20-30 minutes before the light cycles off.
3. Attach the pan holder to the top of the cart warming base before placing the pans in place.
4. The unit comes with two half-size stainless steam pans and a dear polycarbonate rolltop lid. The half size/ 4.3 quart pans each hold up to 40 four-ounce servings.
5. Stainless steam pans may be used in an oven, but NOT the lids!!!
6. Food placed in steam pans should be fully cooked and already hot. The buffet server is designed for a keep-warm function only. To retain heat and moisture in foods, keep lids on when not serving.
7. Foods containing little or no liquid should be kept warm on a Low setting, and stirred periodically.

CARE AND CLEANING

Before initial use and after each subsequent use, wash removable parts in warm sudsy water, rinse and dry. The clear lids are top-rack dishwasher safe. The most effective and safe way to clean the buffet server cart top is with mild detergent and a soft moist cloth. Do not use any scouring agents! DO NOT SUBMERGE THE BUFFET SERVER CART TOP OR LET THE HEAT CONTROL COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER. • Wash side & front laminate panels with a damp cloth when necessary. DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL OR ABRASIVE KITCHEN CLEANERS. Do not use bleach. Do not allow cleaning liquids to drip into the bottom panel retainer channels. If there is any food residue remaining on the metal cart surface, it should be removed after each use. To do so, scrub gently with a fine cleansing pad such as nylon mesh or other ordinary cleansing pad. DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL OR ABRASIVE KITCHEN CLEANERS. To polish, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Any food residue remaining can be whisked away with a gentle stroke of a nylon mesh pad. Rinse and wipe dry. Do not allow water to spill or seep into the frame.
NOTE: It is normal for the heating surface to eventually discolor due to heat. Any maintenance required for this product other than normal care and cleaning should be performed by our Factory or an Authorized Service Center.
