HEATING PROCEDURE

1. Preheat at 200°F (93°C) for 30 minutes.

Press the ON key, and set the temperature to 200°F (93°C) 
by using the UP/DOWN arrow keys.  Allow a minimum 
of 30 minutes preheating time before loading the holding
cabinet with food.  Closing the vents on the inside of the door
will speed the preheating process.  The LED heat indicator
light will go OUT after approximately 30 minutes preheat
time, or when the air temperature inside the unit reaches the
temperature set by the operator.  The set indicator light will
light up anytime the temperature is set or reset.

2. Load with hot food only.

The purpose of the holding cabinet is to maintain hot food at
proper serving temperature.  Only hot food should be placed
into the cabinet.  Before loading the cabinet with food, use a
food thermometer to make certain all products are at an
internal temperature range of 140° to 160°F (60° to 71°C).
Any food product not within the proper temperature range
should be heated before loading into the holding cabinet.

3. Reset the control to 160°F  (71°C).

Check to make certain the cabinet door is securely closed,
and reset to 160°F (71°C) by using the UP/DOWN key.

THIS WILL NOT NECESSARILY BE THE FINAL
SETTING.  

The proper temperature range--or closing or

opening the door vents--will depend on the type and quantity 
of product.  When holding food for prolonged periods, it is
advisable to periodically check the internal temperature of each
item with a food thermometer to assure maintenance of the
proper temperature range of 140° to 160°F  (60° to 71°C).

EXCLUSIVE FEATURE

HEAT RECOVERY

The patented SureTemp™ heat recovery system 
in this unit will immediately compensate for any loss 
of heat when the door is opened.  In order to maintain a
more consistent cavity temperature, the control will
automatically apply heat to the unit's interior while the
door is open and for a short time after the door is closed.
If the door remains open for more than three minutes, the
solid state electronic control will sound three rapid beeps
every ten seconds until the door is closed.

PRINTING

These holding cabinets can be equipped with an option called
HACCP with Kitchen Management for connection to a PC.
This connects to the internet via a Gateway device, thereby
providing temperature recording data as well as setup and
diagnostic information which can be used for HACCP.
