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:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
- Do not touch hot surfaces! Always Use Handles. Always use hot pads or pot holders until unit cools.
- To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse tray base, cord or plug in water or other liquid.
- Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
- 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.
- 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 Cadcob
- Factory Service Department at 860-738-2500 for the nearest authorized service center. (**See page 8 for Warranty info (Warranty applies in 48 contiguous US states only.)
- The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not let the cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
- Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
- It is recommended that this appliance not be moved when it contains hot oil or other hot liquid.
- Do not clean with metal scouring pads. They can scratch and ruin the finish of your unit.
- Always attach the plug to the appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to “Off,” then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
- Do not use appliances for other than intended use.
- DO NOT USE PLASTIC DISHES OR PLASTIC WRAP ON THE WARMING SURFACES.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
A 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 warming surface and high-grade, long-life
stainless chafing pans allow for an attractive alternative for keeping
appetizers and other foods warm. For best results use nylon, plastic, wooden
or rubber utensils. Metal utensils may be used with care but should not be
used to cut food on cooking surfaces.

(When actually using cart to keep foods warm) place steam pans with hot food into the pan holder, and put the lids in place. Initial Use (HOT Buffet Server(s) (Fig. C): (NOTE: 4″ deep pans NOT meant for use with meats unless only filled halfway) There are separate controls for each HOT buffet server. Turn desired Hot buffet server on by pressing the related ON/OFF rocker switch at the back of the cart to the ON position. Turn the variable thermostat knob cOunterclockwise to the maximum setting. Heat the warming base without foods on it for approximately 10 minutes in order to seal the special coating. (Only top level of the cart in the buffet server area heats up.) Temporary smoking is normal during initial use. Subsequent Use:
-
ALWAYS attach each pan holder to the top of the cart warming base before turning on the heat and placing the pans in place.
-
Each buffet server heating element is equipped with a variable thermostat knob, located in the back of the cart. The heat range is from 155 to 200, to keep foods at serving temperatures. (Hot buffet servers are designed for keeping food warm, not for warming up cold food.) For best results, use maximum heat. setting to quickly reach your desired temperature, then adjust to the desired
temperature. Set heat level by turning the knob so that the white line on the knob mark lines up with the signal light line. -
The light will come on only during the heat cycle. Due to the low wattage necessary for warming trays, t can be 20-30 minutes before the light cycles off.
-
CBC-HHH-L series carts come with 6 half-size stainless steam pans and 3 clear polycarbonate rolltop lids. CBC-HHHH-L series carts come with 8 half-size stainless steam pans and 4 clear polycarbonate rolltop lids.
-
Food placed in HOT buffet server steam pans should be fully cooked and already hot. Hot buffet servers are designed for keep-warm functions only. To retain heat/cold and moisture in foods, keep lids on when not serving.
(NOTE:
4″ deep pans NOT meant for use with meats unless only filled halfway.) -
The stainless steam pans may be used in an oven to cook/preheat the food, but the rolltop lids must not be placed in an oven!
-
Foods containing little or no liquid should be kept warm on a Low setting, and stirred periodically.

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 surtace to eventually discolor due
to heat. Any maintenance required for this product other than normal household
