IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

(NOTE: some of these safeguards only apply to carts with optional electrical heat package)

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 the 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 12 for Warranty info (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 the table or counter or touch hot surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

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 THE WARMING SURFACES.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES: (For carts with electric heat package) 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 and high-grade, long-life stainless steam pans will remain unblemished for a long time with appropriate care. 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.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Be sure to remove the protective film from all surfaces before using the cart. (FIG. A.)

FLIP-UP SHELF
Your Grab & Go Cart is equipped with a flip-up shelf. (Fig. B.) To raise the shelf, lift it until you hear the clicks which indicate it locking (on both sides) in an upright position. To lower the shelf, squeeze the shelf lock tabs up on each side, and lower the shelf. The maximum weight load for the shelf is 35-40 lbs.

ASSEMBLY – BASE MODELS

1. Before assembling, wash removable parts in warm sudsy water, rinse and dry. Clean the cart with a mild detergent and a soft moist cloth. Do not use any scouring agents! 2. Place each pan holder (Fig. C1) 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. C2-3). Press pan holder down onto warming surface, and slide pan holder until knobs engage (Fig. C4). Tighten knobs to keep pan holder in place. (Reverse steps to remover pan holder for cleaning, or to switch to optional Cold Bay Penholder Kit.)

OPTIONAL ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT INNER SHELF/ SHELVES (Fig. D.) (for model It’s to order, see page 10) To install the shelf or adjust shelf height, tilt the shelf up slightly and position/ reposition by resting the shelf on your choice of shelf support knobs on both sides of the cart interior (CBC-GG-B2 models) or on cart side and center column (CBC-GG-B3/B4 models.) Be sure the shelf is resting securely on the 4 shelf support knobs before placing anything on the shelf.

OPTIONAL SECURITY DOORS: KEYS/ LOCKS (Figs. E-F)
The optional factory-installed swing-open doors for CBC-GG-B2 series carts have a twist lock. (Fig. E) The optional factory-installed sliding doors for CBC-GG-B3 & CBC-GG-B4 series carts have a push-in lock. Pushing in the lock will set the lock. (Fig. F) Use keys provided to open the lock on all models. ***NOTE: 2 keys are supplied with each cart. Cadco cannot provide replacement keys because each lock is keyed differently. We strongly recommend that you have duplicate keys made at a hardware store or other key vendor as soon as you receive your cart.

OPTIONAL PNEUMATIC WHEELS: (Fig G)

The optional PW-4 Pneumatic Wheels Kit may be ordered 2 different ways:

1. At the time of cart purchase (on the same PO), in which case they will be factory-installed on the cart. (The smaller standard casters will be included in a package inside the shipped cart, in case the end-user later wants to use them on the cart.)
2. As a separate purchase, after the cart has been ordered on a separate PO. In this case, the end-user may install the PW-4 wheels by removing the smaller casters that were factory-installed and attaching the PW-4 wheels using the same hardware and holes.

BASE CONFIGURATIONS

(Please note that many of the carts we build are custom-designed, so your cart may not have the exact features shown below. )

SAMPLE CART CONFIGURATION SHOWING ALL OPTIONS (EXCEPT PW-4 Pneumatic Wheels Kit)

*Starred items are part of an optional Heat Package

(Due to continual product improvements,all configurations are subject to change without notice.)

HOW TO USE CARTS WITH OPTIONAL HEAT PACKAGE
Before using for the first time, become familiar with the Cart features, (Fig. H.) Wash removable parts in warm sudsy water, rinse and dry. Clean the warming tray base & cart with a mild detergent and a soft moist cloth. Do not use any scouring agents! DO NOT SUBMERGE THE WARMING BASE OR LET THE PLUG COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER. Rinse and wipe dry. Do not allow water to spill or seep into the frame.

Assemble Cart

1. Place each pan holder (Fig. 11) 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 (Fig. 12-3). Press pan holder down onto warming surface, and slide pan holder until knobs engage (Fig. 14). Tighten knobs to keep pan holder in place. (Reverse steps to remover pan holder for cleaning, or to switch to optional Cold Bay Penholder Kit.)
2. (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. J):
(NOTE: Optional 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 knob on the control panel to the ON position. Turn the variable thermostat knob counterclockwise to maximum selling. 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:

1. ALWAYS attach each pan holder to the top of the cart warming base before turning on the heat and placing the pans in place.

2. Each buffet server heating element is equipped with a variable thermostat knob, located behind the left door of the cart. The heat range is from 155` to 200° F, to keep foods at serving temperatures. For best results, use the 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.

3. The light will come on only during heat cycle. Due to the low wattage necessary for warming surfaces, it can be 20-30 minutes before the light cycles off.

4. CBC-GG-B4-L series carts with optional Heat Package come with 8 half-size stainless steam pans and 4 clear Eastman TritanTm copolyester rolltop lids.
   CBC-GG-B3-L series carts with optional Heat Package come with 6 half-size stainless steam pans and 3 clear Eastman TritanTm copolyester rolltop lids.
   CBC-GG-B2-L series carts with optional Heat Package come with 4 half-size stainless steam pans and 2 clear Eastman TritanTm copolyester rolltop lids.

5. 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.

6. 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!

7. Foods containing little or no liquid should be kept warm on a Low setting, and stirred periodically.

8. Food placed in optional COLD BAY pans should already be at 41°F or below. Cold Bay pans are designed for keep-cold function only. See directions on page11. BE SURE THE BAY’S HEAT CONTROL KNOB IS TURNED OFF and bay warming surface has cooled down before placing Cold Bay Penholder Kit in place on the cart.

9. To retain heat/cold and moisture in foods, keep lids on when not serving. (NOTE: Optional 4″ deep pans NOT meant for use with meats unless only filled halfway.) SHELF SIDE OUTLET & OPTIONAL JUNCTION BOX

1. There is a low-power 120 Volt outlet on the flip-up shelf side of carts with an optional Heat Package. (Fig. K) This is handy for powering Point of Sale electronics (credit card readers, tablet displays, etc.) or other appliances when the flip-up shelf is in the “up” position. The maximum power available for the outside outlet is 450W.
2. If your cart has the optional C-JB Junction Box, it has two 120 Volt outlets and is located on the top left rear of the inside of the cart. (Fig. L) – The 120 Volt outlet on the outside of the cart is connected to this junction box. (If you don’t have a Junction Box, the outside outlet is connected to the cart electrical system.) One of the inside Junction Box outlets is for the plug from the cart control panel that controls the hot buffet server bays. – One remaining outlet is available on the junction box for an additional appliance.
3. 120V/ 1650W/ 13.75A is the maximum TOTAL power available for cart with included junction box:
   CBC-GG-2: 1650W/ 13.75A total minus 600W/ 5A used by 2 Buffet Server bays = 1,050W/ 8.75A available for register outlet + outlet inside cart. (cont’d. on p.8)
   CBC-GG-3: 1650W/ 13.75A total minus 900W/ 7.5A used by 3 Buffet Server bays = 750W/ 6.25A available for register outlet + outlet inside cart.
   CBC-GG-4: 1650W/ 13.75A total minus 1200W/ 10A used by 4 Buffet Servers = 450W/ 3.75A available for register outlet + outlet inside cart.

CARE AND CLEANING
Before initial use and after each subsequent use, wash removable parts* in warm sudsy water, rinse and dry. If you have optional heat package, the clear lids are top-rack dishwasher safe. The most effective and safe way to clean the warming base is 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 HEAT CONTROL COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER.

• Wash side & front 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.

DISASSEMBLY FOR SERVICING OPTIONAL BUFFET SERVER TOP
(Models with optional Heat Package only)
These carts were designed to allow easy removal of the cart’s buffet server top to facilitate servicing the electrical components if required.
Tool required: 5/32″ “Allen key” (also known as “Allen wrench”, “Allen hex wrench”, “L-hex key”, “Hex key”, etc.) (not included)
