PLACEMENT OF FOOD PROBE (OPTIONAL)

If the unit is equipped with the probe accessory, wipe each
probe and probe tip with a disposable alcohol pad to clean
and sanitize before using.  If the probe is left in its bracket,
the LED temperature display will indicate the ambient air
temperature inside the case.  To place a probe into food
kept in the case, remove the probe from the bracket and
push the probe tip halfway into the product, positioning the
tip at the center of the food mass.  If placing into solid
foods such as meat roast or poultry breasts, push the
probe in from a straight downward position or in from the
side to the center position.  If placing into a semi-liquid or
liquid product, the probe cable will probably need to be
secured to keep the probe positioned properly.  Do not let
the probe tip touch the edges or side of the container.
Tape the probe cable to the lip or edge of the container.
Wipe each probe tip with a clean paper towel to remove
food debris after each use.  Follow by wiping probes with a
disposable alcohol pad.  Return each probe to the proper
bracket position.

SERVE FRESH HOT DELI FOOD

Keep hot deli foods looking fresh.  Occasionally stir or rotate
foods as needed.  Serve products in the proper package or
container.  Keep display  case doors closed after serving.
Wipe spills immediately to assure maximum eye appeal.

The cleanliness and appearance of this unit will contribute
considerably to operating efficiency and
savory, appetizing food.  Good equipment
that is kept clean works better and 
lasts longer.
