Lighting Instructions:
Lighting instructions are located on the inside of the front panel.
Access to the mainfold and pilot valves are gained through the front panel. Access to the
pilot burner is gained by removing the top grate.
Lighting Pilot Burner:
1. Turn all burners to the “OFF” position.
2. Turn on the main gas supply to the unit.
3. Light the pilot and adjust the pilot regulating valve to give a stable pilot flame.
4. If the pilot is out, turn all control knobs to the “OFF’ position. Wait 5 minutes before attempting
to light the pilot.
5. To adjust the pilot flame, turn sdjudting screw on the pilot valve so increase or decrease the size
of the pilot flame. Adjust until the pilot flame is approximately 1/2” to 3/4” tall.
Burner Ignition
Since the burner is lit from a constantly burning pilot, turn the control knob to “HI” to put the unit
into operation; then adjust to any desired position between “LO” and “HI”.
Main Burner Air Supply:
For effiecient burner operation, a proper balance of gas volume and primary air supply must be
maintained which will result in complete combustion. Insufficient air supply results in a yellow
streaming flame. Primary air supply is controlled by an air shutter on the burner.
Loosen the screws on the front of the burner, and adjust the air shutter to elliminate the yellow on
the burner flame. Lock the air shutter in place by tightening the screws.
All burners are lit from constantly burning pilots, turning the control valve as desired is all that is
required to put the unit in service.
Do not permit fans to blow directly ot the unit. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to
the unit’s sides or back. Avoid wall type fans which create air cross-currents within the room.
It is also necessary that sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the
amount of air removed by any ventilating system. Otherwise, a subnormal atmosphere will occur,
adversly affecting operation and causing undesirable working conditions.
A properly designed and installed hood will act as the heart of the ventilating system for the room
or area in which the unit is installed, and will leave the unit independent of changing draft
conditions.
All valves must be checked and lubricated periodically. Consult the authorized service
representative in your area.

1. This apoliance is not a cooking device. It is intended to keep hot cooked foods at serving
temperatures.
Caution: The foodwarmer is for wet operation only. Do not operate the unit dry. If
the unit runs dry, follow these steps:
a. Turn the control knob to “OFF”.
b. Wait until the pan well is cool enough to be handled. Do not pour water in the hot pan well.
c. remove pan well and thoroughly wash the internal bottom surface per weekly cleaning
instructions.
d. replace pan well, add water and resume normal operation.
2. For proper operation, add approximately three quarts of water in the pan well. Check amount of
water daily, or after every four hours of operation. Add water as necessary.
3. The pan well is not intended for use as a food container, but only to store water. Food to be kept
warm must be in separate containers.
4. Since the burner is lit from a constantly burning pilot, turn the control knob to “HI” to put the unit
in operation; then adjust to any desired position between “LO” and “HI”.
5. Turn unit on about 15 to 20 minutes before use.
6. Clean pan well and top surface daily. Clean unit regularly. A clean unit looks nicer, lasts longer
and performs better.
Weekly:
Clean the pan well thoroughly. If necessary, use steel wool on warm pan well. A detergent may
also be used on the pan well to help clean it, but care must be taken to ensure that the detergent is
thourughly removed.
