MONITOR FOOD CLOSELY FOR FOOD SAFETY.
The United States Public Health Service recommends that hot food be held at a minimum of 140°F (60°C) to help prevent bacteria growth.
COLD FOOD IS NOT TO BE ADDED TO THE UNIT FOR RETHERMALIZATION WHILE HOT FOOD IS BEING HELD.
NSF International and ANSI (American National Standards Institute) list this unit as a “Rethermalization and Hot Food Holding unit (Standard 4).”
HOT FOOD HOLDING
Hot Food Holding is achieved with this appliance when it maintains a food product temperature at or above 150°F (66°C), in all locations throughout the product, for a minimum of 2 hours, even if any lid, cover, or pump is removed. The lid, cover, or pump is recommended to help maintain product temperature.

CARE OF STAINLESS STEEL
This warmer and accessories are constructed of stainless steel— one of the
best materials for food serving and storage.
If you notice corrosion beginning on any stainless steel surface, you may need
to change the cleansing agent, sanitizing agent, or the cleaning procedures
you are using.
- A mildly abrasive nylon or brass brush may be used to remove any stubborn food or mineral deposits on interior surfaces of unit.
- Fully rinsing and drying all parts can help prevent corrosion. Elements and minerals in tap water can accumulate on stainless steel parts and create corrosion.
- Do not use abrasive, caustic or ammonia based cleansers.
- Do not use products containing acids, alkalines, chlorine, or salt. These agents can corrode stainless steel.
- Do not use metal scrapers or cleaning pads that could scratch surfaces.
