1. Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
2. Do not modify the power supply cord plug. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
3. Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
4. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Plug the electrical cord into a certified electrical outlet with a corresponding voltage rating as listed on the machine model labels.
2. Always unplug the electric cord when the appliance is not in use and before cleaning, adjusting or maintaining this steamer. Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug or after the machine malfunctions, has been dropped, or is damaged. Use authorized service for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
3. This equipment will be HOT during use and for a short time after it is turned off BE CAREFUL. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use handles when moving this appliance. Keep combustible materials away from appliances.
4. Extreme caution is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children and whenever the appliance is left operating and unattended.
5. This appliance is not intended for use in wet locations. Never locate an appliance where it may fall into a water container. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electrical shock, fire, or damage to the appliance.

CLEANING SAFETY INSTRUCTION

1. Turn the control off and unplug the power cord. Avoid splashing water onto the control.
2. Do not clean this appliance with a water jet or immerse in water or other liquid.

ASSEMBLY

1. Install the four legs into the threaded holes in the base.
2. Install the Adaptor plate on the warmer and insert the two round food pans in the openings. Put the lids on the pans.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Plug the machine into a properly grounded 120-volt power supply.
2. Fill the reservoir with 7 quarts of water by removing the Lids, pans, and adaptor plate from the machine and pouring water into the reservoir with a pitcher. Using hot water will speed up the startup time of the machine. Fill the reservoir with water to the MAX line which is marked in the reservoir. The warmer will hold a maximum of 7 quarts.
3. Re-install the Adaptor Plate, pans, and lids.
4. Put the desired amount of Hot Fudge and Caramel in the pans.
5. Turn on the “Master Switch” and set the thermostat to a maximum setting. The machine should be producing steam in approximately 5-7 minutes (depending on water and room temperature). You can adjust the thermostat according to your operating conditions.
6. Once Steam is produced adjust the thermostat to 80-100 to COOK and 60-80 to HOLD.
7. Once the steam is produced food should reach serving temperature in approximately 20-30 minutes. Adjust the thermostat accordingly. You will want the food to maintain at least 140 Degrees Fahrenheit before serving.
8. CAUTION: Use serving utensils to remove food from the warmer as the product will be hot to the touch.
9. IMPORTANT: DO NOT LET THE WATER LEVEL IN THE RESERVOIR GET BELOW THE MINIMUM LINE. Letting the water run low or out could damage the unit and void your warranty. The minimum line represents 4 quarts of water.

CONDENSATION

1. Cool air striking the warm steamer may cause moisture accumulation. Protecting the unit from cool drafts of air will help prevent condensation.
2. As the covers of the warmer are opened and closed some of the condensations may leak out from the undersides of the lids. This should be wiped up with a towel or rag.

CLEANING THE MACHINE

1. At the end of day: Turn the machine off using the master switch. Remove the lids, pans and adaptor plate from the warmer. (caution: the items will be hot unless you wait long enough to allow them to cool before removing!) These items can be taken to a sink or dishwasher for cleaning. Use a mild detergent and water to clean.
2. Empty the remaining water in the reservoir by dumping it into a sink or drain. (caution: the water will be hot unless you allow sufficient cool-down time). Clean the reservoir with a mild detergent and water. Wipe down with a soft cloth.
3. Wipe down the outside of the unit with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.
4. After the components have been cleaned, re-assemble the machine as outlined above so you will be ready for the next usage.
