How to Operate
1. Open the cover and remove the food pan from the water pan.
2. Pour clean, hot water (140°F-180°F) into the water pan to the fill
line stamped on the backside of the pan.
3. Light the canned fuel or plug in the electric heating element. The
element will automatically start to heat.
4. Place the food pan containing prepared food into the water pan and
close the cover.
5. Regularly monitor the food temperature and water level in the
water pan. Food should remain above 140°F. Water should not fall
below the fill line. If needed, refill the water pan with hot water.
NOTICE:
The water pan will warp if allowed to run dry
for an extended period of time. A warped water pan will
cause poor contact with the heating element and limit
heat transfer to the pan.

Slide the heating element in the corresponding direction that aligns the
bolts with the narrow slots on the element. See Figure 2 for reference.
Tightly fasten the bolts so the heating element is in direct contact with
the water pan and there is no gap between the parts. Run the heating
element cord through the holder located underneath the frame on
either side of the chafing dish. See Figure 3 for reference.
