Preparation & Operation
1. Set unit on a flat, stable surface, away from any combustible materials and near a power source.
2. Clean thoroughly BEFORE USE.
3. Add water into the well pan: 3 cups water for 11 QT units / 1 cup water for 7 QT units.
DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT WATER IN THE WELL PAN.
Using the unit without water will cause metal fatigue and excess wear
on metal components, which will result in rendering the unit inoperable.
Use care when handling hot water and steam.
4. If the unit fails to work properly during initial use, please notify customer service at:
5. Plug cord into properly grounded outlet with the correct voltage and power requirement. Electrical shock may occur if appliance
is not grounded properly.
6. Preheat the water in the well pan. Faster preheat can be achieved by covering the water well pan with an empty full-size food
pan or a full- size food pan cover.
7. Place stainless steel or high-heat poly pans (inset pans) into the unit well pan. If using the appliance as a WARMER, the contents
placed in the food pans should be previously cooked as the purpose of the warmer is to hold contents at the proper desired
temperature.
If the appliance is being used as a COOKER, frozen foods such as soups, chili or vegetables can be brought to safe serving
temperature (minimum 140°F) in less than 40 minutes using the maximum heat setting.
Place frozen foods into the recommended inset pan(s) and follow the preparation instructions that accompany the frozen food
product.
8. Never place foods directly into the well pan.
The well pan is for water only. Foods must always be placed into the inset pans.
9. Inset pans must be covered to maintain temperatures while food is not being served.
10. For the function of hot food holding, set the heat control to the desired setting.
Monitor temperature regularly to ensure
food safety.
11. During normal operation of food warming and holding, periodically check the water level. Add hot water when necessary and
stir the contents occasionally.
