O series (open well) Operation

Dry Operation with over

1. Plug unit into appropriate electrical power supply receptacle.

2. With openings covered, set the dial to the highest position for 45 minutes to preheat the unit.

3. During initial start‐up, smoke or odor may be detected (a small amount). This will occur when the coating on the heating element turns off and should stop approximately a half hour after start up.

4. Place precooked food (minimum 160 F) in food pans, place in openings and cover with lids.
   (Indicator light is the set point for the control knob)

5. Adjust to the desired setting for proper food temperature. This will vary with the type of food, size of pans, and individual serving temperatures. NSF requires food to be a minimum of 150 F.

6. To increase temperature, turn the knob toward the highest setting. To decrease, turn toward the lowest setting.

7. Food pans should be covered to maintain temperature when food is not being served and to prevent food from drying out.

Wet Operation with Cover (Spillage pans required)
Note – DO NOT put hot water in the heating well or on the element

1. With openings covered, set the dial at the highest setting for 45 minutes.
2. Install spillage pans and spillage pans to the bottom of food pans with hot water (minimum of 185°F).
3. Place pre‐cooked food (minimum 160°F) in food pans.
4. Place in spillage pans and cover food pans with lids.
5. Adjust to the desired setting for proper food temperature. NSF requires food to be a minimum of 150°F.

S/SO/SD Series (sealed well) Operation

1. Before the unit is used for the first time, turn the temperature knob to “10” and heat the well for 2030 minutes.
   Do not be alarmed if smoke appears; this preheat should burn off any residue or dust on the heating element.
   WARNING: Steam can cause serious burns.
   Always wear some type of protective covering on your hands and arms when removing lids or pans from the unit. Lift the lid or pan in a way that will direct escaping steam away from your face and body.

2. Never place food directly into the well. Always use pans.

3. A wet operation is recommended.

4. Always place covers on pans when not serving to prevent food from drying out and to reduce your operating costs.

5. For most efficient operation, keep empty, covered insets in each well during preheating and when the well is not in use.

6. Wet Operation

7. Fill food well with two (2) quarts of water. For quicker pre-heating, use hot water to till the well.

8. Turn the control to “HIGH” and pre-heat the warmer for 30 minutes.

9. After preheating, set the control to your desired serving temperature.

10. Never pour water into a well that has been heated dry. This may cause the well to crack and leak.

11. Always fill well before preheating or before water level is below 1/2”.

CLEANING – NOTE: To maintain cleanliness and increase service life, the steam table should be cleaned daily. Do not immerse the unit in water or any other liquid. If liquid enters the electrical compartment, it may cause a short circuit or electrical shock.

1. Allow unit to completely cool before cleaning.
2. Disconnect the cord from the outlet.
3. Wipe the inside and outside surfaces of the unit with a damp cloth, then wipe dry.
4. To avoid damage, do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
5. Avoid using cleaners as the chemical residue could damage or corrode the surfaces of the unit. Clean the unit with warm soapy water and a soft cloth only.
