Operating Instructions

NOTE: Units are designed to hold pre-heated hot food only. NEVER use to pre-heat or re-heat food.
WARNING! Never use in wet or damp conditions. Refer to Section II for Safety Instructions and Warnings.

  1. Plug into main power supply 100-120 VAC (UPCH400/800/1600 models) or 200-230VAC (UPCH4002/8002/16002 models) 50/60 HZ. Product label located on the heating unit inside each door clearly indicates power supply information (see label samples below).
  2. Red light on front of heated door indicates power ON for UPCH400 and UPCH800 models ­ there is no power switch, unit turns on automatically when plugged into outlet. Power is activated on UPCH1600 models by flipping power switch on front of heated door and will turn red when power is ON. An amber light on the same switch indicates heater is active. This will remain on until heater reaches factory set temperature and then will turn off. NOTE ­ heater will switch on and off as necessary during operation to maintain factory set temperatures.
  3. Pre-heat compartment(s) empty with door(s) closed for 45 minutes prior to loading hot food. When inside door thermometer reads 150°F (65°C), insert pans of hot food into the carrier or cart and latch door(s) to close tightly. NOTE: Cool metal pans or sheet pans to 250°F (121,1°C) prior to placing onto plastic rails.
  4. When transporting carrier/cart filled with hot food, unplug cord(s) and store on cord strap(s) located on side of carrier or cart prior to moving. Insulated units will hold hot food hot for 4+ hours unplugged*.
  5. If necessary, open pop vent located in door to release moisture/steam (UPCH400 and UPCH800 doors only,). Firmly grasp and pull outward until it clicks. To close vent, push in until it clicks. UPCH1600 models have built in passive vent.

Care and Maintenance

A. Heater and Door
WARNING: Completely cool heater unit prior to cleaning or maintenance.
WARNING: Do not submerge heater in water or spray water on it.
WARNING: Unplug heater from grounded power source and from door heater prior to cleaning.

  1. Carefully remove five nylon thumbscrews and washers from heater with one hand while holding heater with your other hand. CAUTION! Once you start loosening the thumbscrews, the heater may fall unless you are firmly holding it. You can also remove the door and lay face down on a flat surface to remove the heater. (Sec. VI)
  2. Once heater is removed from the door, clean components and door with mild detergent, hot water and a soft cloth.
  3. Rinse using soft cloth and clean hot water to remove soap and dirt.
  4. Completely air dry all components or wipe with dry, clean soft cloth before re-assembling and using the heater.
  5. Carefully place heater into the recessed area of the inner face of the door. Align AC inlet for power connection with rectangular hole through the door.
  6. Use washers and thumbscrews to reattach heater to door. Tighten thumbscrews firmly but not excessively. Do not use pliers or tools. During normal operation, periodically check thumbscrews for tightness.
  7. Inspect plug blades and cord and replace power cord if frayed or blades are missing, bent or broken.
  8. If door has been removed for cleaning or maintenance, re-install following directions in Section VI.

B. Carrier/Cart Body

  1. Clean with mild detergent, hot water and a soft cloth. DO NOT use detergents or cleaners containing ammonia or bleach.
  2. Hand wash using a soft cloth or brush to clean all interior and exterior surfaces. DO NOT use steel wool or abrasive scrub pads or brushes.
  3. Rinse product with warm or hot water to remove soap and dirt.
  4. Clean gaskets by placing them into a container or sink with hot soapy water, wipe with soft cloth or brush, rinse in hot water and air dry.
  5. Air dry or dry carrier/cart outside and inside with clean, dry, soft cloth.

C. Casters
Caster maintenance should be performed after every cleaning.

  1. Grease swivel raceway of caster using a lubricant such as Lubriplate #930-AA, Keystone #84EPXLT multi-purpose grease or equivalent. Apply grease using a grease gun with a needle nose adapter or a tube-type applicator such as Sta-lube Moly-graph Assembly Lube (Fig.6). These can be obtained at most auto parts stores.
  2. Use a light oil such as WD-40 on the hub (Fig.7). Check caster for damage and test caster spin and swivel rotation before returning to service.

H-series Heated Door Kit Installation Instructions

Replace existing H-series Heated Doors or convert existing non-electric UPC400, UPC800, UPC1600 models to electric UPCH400, uPCH800 or uPCH1600 units
Before replacing and/or installing, ensure you have the following:

  • 1 Door with Heater
    NOTE: These doors are designed to fit the top OR bottom cabinet and are NOT interchangeable. Be sure to confirm you have the correct model prior to installation. The word TOP DOOR or BOTTOM DOOR is molded on the inside face of the door on the hinge knuckle. The heater model number and serial number are located on the heater label.

  • 1 detachable power cord (110V or 220V, depending upon model).

  • 1 cord strap and 1 each screw and finishing washer and location template. Tools required for assembly – (#2) Phillips Screwdriver for cord strap.

  1. Lay cabinet or carrier on back with door(s) facing up. Locate and remove hinge pin clip(s). On UPC400 single door models, one is located at the top and another is located at the bottom of the door hinge knuckles (Fig. 1). On the UPC800/UPCH800 and UPC1600/UPCH1600, a hinge pin is located at the top of the top door and one is located at the bottom of the bottom door and there is a pivot pin located at the bottom of the top door and the top of the bottom door.
  2. While rotating the door back and forth, pull hinge pins out (Fig. 2). Remove pivot pins. Warning! Hold onto the door at all times until door comes loose and can be removed.
  3. Pull door from the body (Fig. 3). This may be tight and can require some manipulation to remove.
  4. Place the new door as shown into place for installation (Fig. 4), lining up hinge knuckles.
  5. Place hinge pins in hinge holes first, aligning holes of body and holes of the door (Fig. 5). Adjust door position as needed for all of the pins to go in. For UPC800/UPCH800 and UPC1600/UPCH1600 models, next place the pivot pins in the hinge holes. Adjust the door position or rotate it as needed to allow the pins to go completely into place.
  6. After all pins are fully seated and the groove is visible between the door and the body (Fig. 6a), snap the “U” shaped end of the hinge pin clip onto the groove of the pin. Rotate the door so you can push the “V” shaped end of the hinge clip over the molded-in rib, just behind the hinge hole towards the food storage area of the carrier/cart (Fig. 6b). Do this at the top and bottom position of the door hinge.
  7. Using the location template, mark and install the cord strap on the side of the unit and fasten the cord strap with the screw and finishing washer provided (Figs. 7a and 7b).
  8. Plug in the detachable cord (Fig. 8a) to the heater door and secure any extra cord in the cord strap (Fig. 8b).
