FWE TOP MOUNT HEATED HOLDING CABINETS
GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1) PLUG CABINET INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED POWER
RECEPTACLE.
If your unit has an illuminated switch, it will illuminate
when turned on.
2) SELECT A TEMPERATURE SETTING.
For most foods, a holding
temperature of 150°F - 160°F (65.6°C to 71°C) should be adequate.
The cycling light indicates the heating element is on.
3) PRE-HEAT CABINET FOR 20-30 MINUTES.
When the cycling light goes off, the unit has reached the temperature
which you selected. However, for best results, allow cabinet to fully
pre-heat for 20-30 minutes. Load with your HOT foods. Plates may be
heated in the cabinet before dish up, but this will require extra
pre-heating time.
Pre-heat times depend on the size of your cabinet. Adjust your pre-heat
time according to the size of your cabinet and the length of your
transport time.
AVOID PUTTING YOUR HOT FOODS INTO A COLD CABINET!
By pre-heating the unit 20-30 minutes before each use, you can be
assured of maintaining the temperature and obtaining the best results
from your cabinet.
PREPARING THE CABINET BEFORE LOADING FOOD
LOAD HOT FOOD INTO A PRE-HEATED CABINET
4) LOAD THE CABINET.
During the loading procedure, keep the doors
closed as much as possible. After loading is completed, do not open
doors again until you are ready to serve.
5) TRANSPORTING HOT FOODS -
Before moving the cabinet, keep it
plugged in and wait until the cycling light goes off. This recovery takes
only a short time and allows the internal temperature to again reach the
setting you have selected. As soon as the cycling light goes off, unplug
the cabinet and wheel to serving area. Plug the cabinet into an
electrical outlet at the serving location (if available) so the thermostat
will re-activate and automatically hold your pre-selected temperature.
