Alto-Shaam HALO HEAT HN-96, Operation And Care Manual

Page: 3 / 26

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 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 and ease end of the day cleanup.
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.
1. CLEAN THE PROBES DAILY
Remove all food soil from probes. Wipe entire probe and
cable assembly with warm detergent solution and a clean
cloth. Remove detergent by wiping each probe and cable
with clean rinse water and a cloth. Wipe probes with
disposable alcohol pad or sanitizing solution
recommended for food contact surfaces. Allow probe and
cable to air dry in probe holding bracket.
2. THOROUGHLY CLEAN THE UNIT DAILY
A. Turn lights and adjustable thermostat(s) to the “OFF”
position, and disconnect unit from power source.
B. Remove, cover or wrap, and store unused products
under refrigeration.
C. Clean the interior metal surfaces of the cabinet
with a damp cloth and any good alkaline or
alkaline chlorinated based commercial
detergent or grease solvent at the recom-
mended strength. Use a plastic scouring pad
or oven cleaner for difficult areas. Avoid the
use of abrasive cleaning compounds,
chloride based cleaners, or cleaners
containing quaternary salts. Rinse carefully
to remove all residue and wipe dry.
NOTE: Never use hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) on
stainless steel.
D. Clean the glass with a window cleaner.
E. To help maintain the protective film coating on
polished stainless steel, clean the exterior of the unit
with a cleaner recommended for stainless steel
surfaces. Spray the cleaning agent on a clean cloth and
wipe with the grain of the stainless steel.
Always follow appropriate state or local health (hygiene)
regulations regarding all applicable cleaning and sanitation
requirements for equipment.
