board to turn the unit “On”.
3) Using Up and Down Arrows, set cabinet desired temperature.
NOTE: Display will show cabinet temperature setting. Press
the Temperature Button to view the actual cabinet tempera-
ture.
4) The display will show “PrE” until the unit has reached the de-
sired set point. Pre-heat to desired temperature (see preheat
times and temperatures for each model in box to the left).
When preheat is complete, it will display the set temperature.
5) The actual temperature of the food compartment can be seen
by pressing the Set/Actual Button once.
6) Load product into the cabinet, starting from the bottom up.
7) To disconnect from AC wall power and go to DC battery pow-
er for transport, turn off cabinet, unplug from AC and then turn
the cabinet back on. It will now run on battery power. Run
time will be about 4 hours on a full battery charge.
8) When removing product from the cart, start at the bottom and
work to the top position. This keeps food hotter and elimi-
nates spillage onto lower items.
9) Once the battery requires charging or the user wants to begin
charging the battery again, the unit should first be turned “Off”
then plugged into the wall socket. The unit can then be left
“Off” to charge more quickly or it can be turned “On” again to
maintain active temperature and charge the battery which will
take more time.
10) It is recommended that the unit be fully charged before un-
plugging and running on battery to maximize the life of the
battery over time.
