O P E R AT I N G I N S T R U C T I O N S 1 2 3 7 10 An indicator light will illuminate when the thermostat(s) is (are) turned “ON.” The indicator(s) will remain lit as long as the unit is preheating or calling for heat. The unit should be preheated at the 10 setting for a minimum of 30 minutes before loading the unit with hot food. When preheating is completed, or whenever the unit reaches any temperature set by the operator between 1 and 10, the indicator light(s) will go “OUT”.
GENERAL HOLDING GUIDELINES Chefs, cooks and other specialized food service personnel employ varied methods of cooking. Proper holding temperatures for a specific food product must be based on the moisture content of the product, product density, volume, and proper serving temperatures. Safe holding temperatures must also be correlated with palatability in determining the length of holding time for a specific product.
CLEANING AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PROTECTING STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES It is important to guard against corrosion in the care of stainless steel surfaces. Harsh, corrosive, or inappropriate chemicals can completely destroy the protective surface layer of stainless steel. Abrasive pads, steel wool, or metal implements will abrade surfaces causing damage to this protective coating and will eventually result in areas of corrosion.
CARE AND CLEANING The cleanliness and appearance of this appliance will contribute considerably to operating efficiency and savory, appetizing food. Good equipment kept clean works better and lasts longer. DANGER DISCONNECT UNIT FROM POWER SOURCE BEFORE CLEANING OR SERVICING. NOTE: Always allow the appliance to cool before cleaning. C L E A N T H E A P P L I A N C E D A I LY.
S A N I TAT I O N Food flavor and aroma are usually so closely related that it is difficult, if not impossible, to separate them. There is also an important, inseparable relationship between cleanliness and food flavor. Cleanliness, top operating efficiency, and appearance of equipment contribute considerably to savory, appetizing foods. Good equipment that is kept clean, works better and lasts longer.
SERVICE CAUTION DANGER THIS SECTION IS PROVIDED FOR THE ASSISTANCE OF QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIANS ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY UNTRAINED OR UNAUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL. THERMOSTAT and HEAT LIGHT SEQUENCE Whenever the thermostat is turned “10,” the heat indicator light will indicate the power ON/OFF condition of the heating cable, and consequently, the cycling of the appliance as it maintains the dialed temperature.
