HEATED CABINETS - OPERATION
Set the
Temperature
Set the controller to the desired temperature, 80°C
is the recommended setting to maintain food
temperature within food safety guidelines. The
temperature can be changed by holding down the
left button, and pressing the up or down key as
required.
NOTE
Setting the controller to a higher temperature than required will not
speed up the heating process. Set it to the desired temperature.
Check the display to see when the cabinet is up to temperature.
Load Cabinet
Load cabinet with pre-heated product.
The cabinet is designed to maintain the temperature of pre-heated product. It is
not an oven, and consequently, if cold product is introduced, there could be a
considerable delay before the operating temperature is again reached.
WARNING:
Aluminium Foil
Do NOT place aluminium foil on shelves or base trays. This will disrupt the
convection circulation of air, and cause uneven heating.
Blockage of air vents may cause severe overheating of the cabinet base.
Close all Doors
It is important to keep all cabinet doors closed. If doors are not fully closed, an
even temperature will not be maintained within the cabinet.
Turn on Lights
When ready for service, turn on the cabinet lights.
Routines
HEATED CABINETS
-
OPERATION
Door Opening
The cabinet is designed to maintain food at a temperature above 65
C. The
heating system is designed to maintain this temperature with the doors being
opened and closed up to sixty times per hour.
If the doors are left open for an extended period the temperature will fall. Once
the doors are shut the temperature will take some time to rise to the normal
operating level. The longer the doors are open the longer the time to restore
normal operating temperature.
Cleaning
It is recommended that cabinets be cleaned at the end of the working day, since
they need to be shut down for this.
