OPE R A TIO N

DELUXE CONTROL OPERATION

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

Press the ON key, and set the temperature to

200°F (93°) 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 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 keys

THIS WILL NOT NECESSARILY

BE THE FINAL SETTING.

The proper temperature range and open or closed door vent position 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).

SureTemp™ 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 control will sound three rapid beeps every ten seconds until the door

is closed.
