E. Food Storage
WARNING
• Storage of foods should follow all local codes and regulations.
The appliance is designed only for temporary storage of food. Employ sanitary
methods. Use for any other purposes (for example, storage of chemicals or
medical supplies such as vaccine and serum) could cause deterioration of stored
items.
• Do not block air inlets or outlets, otherwise cooling performance may be reduced.
• Do not tightly pack the cabinet. Allow some space between items to ensure good
air ow. Also allow space between items and interior surfaces.
• Do not put warm or hot foods in the cabinet. Let them cool rst, or they will raise
the cabinet temperature and could deteriorate other foods in the cabinet or
overload the appliance.
All foods should be wrapped in plastic lm or stored in sealed containers. Otherwise
foods may dry up, pass their smells onto other foods, cause frost to develop, result
in poor appliance performance, or increase the likelihood of cross-contamination.
Certain dressings and food ingredients, if not stored in sealed containers, may
accelerate corrosion of the evaporator, resulting in failure.
• Do not store items near air outlets. Otherwise, items may freeze up and crack or
break causing a risk of injury or contamination of other food.
Additional Information for Prep Table Models
The entire rail must always be covered by rail dividers and pans (1/6 size, up to
6"(15cm)deep). Otherwise, the appliance will not cool properly.
• Use only 1/6 size pans up to 6"(15cm) deep. Do not use damaged pans.
• Ingredients must be pre-chilled to 37°F (3°C) or less before placing in rail.
• Keep the rail cover closed when not actively preparing food.
The rail is for keeping ingredients cool while preparing food. If not actively preparing
food for a long period such as overnight, seal pans with plastic wrap in addition
to closing the rail cover. Depending on conditions, the cabinet temperature
setting may need to be adjusted to prevent items from freezing. Alternatively, seal
ingredients and store them in a refrigerator or freezer.
