HEATER OPERATION—RIGHT SIDE (humidified)
*For food safety reasons,
it is recommended that
the food be held at 140°F
or higher.
This cabinet is not in-
tended to reheat food.
Food must be cooked and
at safe serving tempera-
ture prior to being placed
in the cabinet.
See page 10 for food
holding guidelines.
If you are using both sides
of the cabinet, both heaters
must be operating. Make
sure both are plugged into
the junction box at the base
of the cabinet.
See previous page for
heater operation for left
side of cabinet.
1. Turn the heater on using the left temperature dial. Adjust the
temperature to your desired setting (80 °-210°F). To adjust the
temperature setting, rotate the heat dial clockwise to increase
the temperature and counter-clockwise to decrease the tem-
perature.
2. If humidity is desired, turn the right know to the desired setting
(1-7; 1 being lowest humidity, 7 being highest humidity) Fill the
pan with clean warm water. Check water level every 2 hours and
refill as needed. This step is optional; cabinet be also be oper-
ated without water in the pan.
3. Wait approximately 40 minutes for the cabinet to preheat.
4. Load food pans into cabinet. NOTE: Follow all food safety
guidelines. Put hot, cooked food into the cabinet.
5. When removing items, start at the bottom and work up. This will
keep food hotter and eliminate spillage onto lower items.
6. After loading food, move the cabinet to the service area as
quickly as possible.
7. Upon reaching the service area, reconnect the heater as soon
as possible. Wait 5-10 minutes for the cabinet to recover
temperature (check the thermometer to see if the temperature is
at the desired level). Adjust thermostat as needed.
8. When removing items, start at the bottom and work up. This will
keep food hotter and eliminate spillage onto lower items.
