RETHERMALIZATION

Rethermalization of food products is achieved by this appliance when it elevates the food product temperature from a refrigerated 40°F (4°C) to a safe serving temperature of 165°F (74°C) within a period of 2 hours.

PRE-HEAT UNIT

for at least 5 minutes with:

  • Correct amount of water in basin.
  • Lid closed.
  • Thermostat knob set at maximum setting.

ADD FOOD PRODUCT

  • Put food container into the water vessel basin.
  • Maximum capacity of food product is 3 quarts (96 oz./12 cups). Do not overfill.

MAINTAIN SAFE HOT FOOD HOLDING

  • After food reaches safe serving temperature of 165°F (74°C), maintain product temperature at or above 150°F (66°C).
  • Adjust controller if needed to avoid overheating food.

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.

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.

PRE-HEAT UNIT
for at least 5 minutes with:

  • Correct amount of water in basin.
  • Lid closed.
  • Thermostat knob set at maximum setting.

ADD FOOD PRODUCT

  • Put food which has already been preheated to 150°F (66°C) into container in water vessel basin.
  • Maximum capacity of food product is 3 quarts (96 oz./12 cups). Do not overfill.

NSF International and ANSI (American National Standards Institute) list this unit as a m“Rethermalization and Hot Food Holding unit (Standard 4).”

SMART TIP

  • Food may overheat from resting on the bottom.
  • Water may overflow into food container.
  • Excess product may be left in food container

PARTS

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.
