Section 3
Operation
Part Number: 9291493 REV00 06/20 21
Option Self Contained Combination Hot/Cold
Food Wells, N8600 Series, Operation
Hot Operation
DANGER
When operated at the highest temperature setting, the
top of the unit will become very hot. Staff and customers
using the equipment should be informed about this.
,
Caution
Never use anything other than plain water in the wells
or tank. Failure to observe this warning may result in
personal injury or damage to the unit.
,
Caution
Using ice in a hot food well can cause condensation and
damage to the well over time.
N8600 Series hot and cold combination pans must be
operated with water in the well for proper hot operation.
Fill well with a minimum of 4.0” (10.2cm) of water. Place
function switch in HOT position to begin heating. Turn
thermostat dial to the desired temperature.
To turn unit off, simply move the function switch to OFF
position. Drain water and allow unit to cool before cleaning
or switching to cold operation.
Switching From Hot To Cold Operation
1. Place the function switch in the OFF position and drain
out hot water.
2. Allow the unit to cool until it can be safely cleaned.
3. When clean up procedures are complete, unit will be
ready for cold operation. This takes about one hour.
,
Caution
To assure maximum compressor life, do not switch
from “hot” to “cold” operation without allowing a cool
down period. Never switch from hot to cold operation
while hot water remains in the pans. Failure to observe
this warning will greatly reduce compressor life and
eventually cause premature compressor failure.
Cold Operation
Simply place the function switch to the COLD position.
The compressor controller has been factory set and no
temperature adjustment should be necessary.
If the cold pan is to be used with ice, it is recommended
that the optional perforated bottoms be used. These will
allow ice to melt properly.
Switching From Cold To Hot Operation
No special procedure is required to switch from the cold to
hot operation. Be certain to fill with a minimum of 4.0” of
water.
Note
The unit is designed so that the compressor and the
heating elements cannot operate at the same time.
Continued operation of the compressor in the hot
position is not normal. Call for service if this happens.
The unit must be turned off when not in use or overnight
for defrosting and cleaning.
N8600 Immersion Heater High Limit
As a safety feature, the N8600 food well immersion heater
includes a high limit safety switch. If the heater gets too
hot the safety switch will trip and turn the heater off. A
pilot light on the control panel will illuminate when the
safety switch is tripped. To reset the safety switch, first turn
OFF the thermostat or Power switch and then determine
if low water is the cause. If low water is not the cause,
contact service for resolution. If low water is the cause,
carefully remove food pans and refill the water. This will
allow the immersion heater to cool and the safety switch
will automatically reset. The unit must be turned OFF
as directed or safety switch will not reset even if water
is refilled to proper level. Replace food pans and turn
thermostat or Power switch back on.
