MN-28871 • Rev 5 • 10/17 • 750-CTUS Hot Food Holding Cabinet
Operating Instructions
1. Turn thermostat to 200°F (93°C) and preheat
for 30 minutes.
When the thermostat is turned clockwise to an ON
position, the indicator light will illuminate and will
remain lit as long as the unit is calling for heat. Close
the ventilation openings inside the door to accelerate
heating.
The indicator light will go OUT when the air
temperature inside the unit reaches the temperature
set by the operator. It will then cycle ON/OFF at this
holding point. Verify the full preheated temperature
with the holding temperature gauge located on the
control panel of the cabinet.
2. Load the cabinet with hot food only.
The purpose of the holding cabinet is to maintain hot
food at proper serving temperature. 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 thermostat to 160°F (71°C).
Check to make certain the cabinet door is securely
closed, and reset the thermostat to 160°F (71°C). This
will not necessarily be the final setting.
The proper
temperature range for the products being held 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).
