NORMAL OPERATION
CAUTION: HOT SURFACE
Inner and outer surfaces of the unit will be very hot during and after
operation.
Avoid touching the cabinet when loading or removing
Operating ranges: – air temp: 80ºF-210ºF
*For food safety reasons, it is recommended that the food be held at 140°F or higher.
FIRST USE Before using the cabinet, familiarize yourself with the heater
controls. Plug the cabinet into a proven power source. The power indicator
lamp and fan will operate continuously whenever the heater is plugged in. This
unit operates on 1650 watts, 120 volts, 13.7 Amps, NEMA 5-15P plug.
HEATER OPERATION 1. Turn thermostat knob to 160°F to 180°F; allow cabinet to
preheat
for at least 20 minutes. Be sure cabinet door remains closed during preheat
time. Dial thermometer will display actual cabinet temperature. 2. Food
serving temperature will vary with the mass, type & quantity of food (see FOOD
HOLDING GUIDE on page 7). To adjust the temperature setting, rotate the HEAT
dial clockwise to increase temperature and counter-clockwise to decrease
temperature to the desired set point. Dial settings range from 80°F to 210°F.
HEAT cycle light will turn on and off as the heat thermostat cycles. 3. Load
food pans into cabinet. NOTE: Follow all food safety guidelines. Put hot,
cooked food into the cabinet. This cabinet is not intended to reheat food.
Food must be cooked and at safe serving temperature prior to being placed in
the cabinet. 5. During loading, the cabinet temperature will drop. Close door
and allow the cabinet to recover for 10-15 minutes before moving the cabinet.
6. Be sure to unplug the cord and wind it around the cord bracket before
moving the cabinet. Move the cabinet to the service area as quickly as
possible. 7. Upon reaching the service area, unwind the power cord and
reconnect the heater as soon as possible. Wait 5-10 minutes for the cabinet to
recover temperature (check the thermometer to see if the temperature is at the
desired level). Adjust thermostat as needed. 8. When removing items, start at
the bottom and work up. This will keep food hotter and eliminate spillage onto
lower items.

ing. Simply lift up and pull out. The tray slides may be hand
washed or run through an automatic dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT spill or pour water into controls, control panel or wiring. Water damage is not covered by warranty.
Vinyl trim should be washed with a chlorine-free detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly with clear water and allow to dry. Never use abrasive cleaners, waxes, car polish, or substances containing strong aromatic solvents or alcohol. Use of direct steam/hot water cleaning at temperatures above 190°F (88°C) may result in bubbling or loosening of vinyl adhesive.
CAUTION: Beware
of sharp edges with sheet metal during cleaning process.
CAUTION: Do not
use steel wool pads as they will result in rusting from the ferrous metal in
the pads.
6. To clean stainless steel surfaces use only cleansers, detergents,
degreasers, or sanitizers that are certified to be “chloride-free” and
“phosphate-free”. DO NOT exceed recommended concentrations or mixing ratios.
After cleaning and sanitizing, rinse all exposed surfaces thoroughly with
large amounts of clear water. Wipe off any standing liquid or residue from all
horizontal surfaces, in corners, or near edges.
7. Wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
8. Replace heating unit.
CAUTION: Cleansers, detergents, degreasers, sanitizers, or bleaching agents
that contain chlorides or phosphates will cause permanent damage to stainless
steel products. The damage appears as pits, eruptions, voids, small holes,
cracks, severe discoloration, or dulling of the metal finish. Water with high
chloride content can also damage stainless steel. If unsure of your water
quality, we recommend you have it tested.
Use of cleaning agents that are not recommended for stainless steel may cause
permanent damage to the cabinet. THIS DAMAGE IS PERMANENT, COSTLY TO REPAIR
AND IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.

MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Do not move cabinet unless door is securely closed. Serious damage to hinges
and door may result if bumped into tables, walls, or other equipment when the
doors are open.
CASTERS
Some cabinets may have caster bearings that are equipped with Zerk grease
fittings so that they may be easily lubricated with a grease gun. Lubricate
bearings at least once every six months. Lubrication will be required more
often if cabinet is cleaned with a hot water or steam cleaning system. Casters
with special sealed bearings are recommended for frequent cart wash or steam
cleaning systems.
LATCHES & HINGES
Make sure all joints remain sealed and door latches do not stick. If
necessary, use WD-40, silicone spray, graphite or other commercial lubricants
for aluminum products, to keep door latches & hinges from sticking. Do not use
oil.
FOR CABINETS WITH PERIMETER BUMPERS Vinyl which has been dislodged from the
channel due to severe bumping or scraping can be pried back into place with a
common screwdriver.
