1. Place charger on its back and screw in each leg. No tools required.
2. Prior to use: Set charger on a stable, level surface and adjust legs by rotating the foot of the legs until all four are making contact with surface.
3. Certified electrician recommended to wire male connector to end of cord and plug into proper outlet. With power supply 3/PE 380-480 volt, 16 amps.
4. Turn on the power switch located on the side of the charger: All lights will flash.
5. Load bases into charger, base lights will blink orange when heating (Bases can be loaded prior to turning power on).
6. Bases heat up in about five (5) minutes, lights turn green indicating ready to use. Takes approximately 5 minutes to bring the core temperature of the base to
100˚C. Base rims are cool to the touch.
7. The light will stay green- until base is removed. If the base stays inserted after heating, a digitally controlled “trickle heating” function ensures that the base
keeps its temperature until it is removed. This function prevents cooling down and overheating for the time the base is plugged in.
8. When the heated base is pulled out, insert a new base in the slot and continue clockwise to the next slot and repeat.
9. If inserting a recently heated base back into the slot, the light will turn orange and then green indicating the base is ready for use.

Energy Saving – sleep feature
If no base is plugged in or out of the charger for 45 minutes, the charger will automatically switch to energy saving mode. To restart the charger, switch main
power OFF and then back ON. The charger will start to heat and slot lights will come on. This is also a great safety feature for nights or weekends when someone
forgets to turn off the charger.
11.
Reliable Service
The electronics are made up of 5 independent supply boards, each with a stand-alone power supply and a 4-channel power controller PCB. If one board or PCBs
get damaged, the rest of the boards will continue to work. If one slot is damaged, the remaining 19 slots will continue to work. Four slots are controlled per
board.
12.
Worldwide Usage
The main supply voltage specification is 3/PE AC 380-480 V (+/-10%) 50-60Hz. This wide voltage range allows the use of the Camduction System almost
everywhere in the world: USA, Canada, Australia, Europe, India, and South Africa.
13.
Preventing Misusage
If a base is repeatedly plugged in and out to get it hotter, the built-in temperature sensor recognizes the base’s temperature and won’t start a new heating cycle.
The base is just marked as “ready to use” by the green light on the slot.
14. Even a serious fault caused by hardware/wiring or wrong handling of the charger is non-hazardous for the operator due to the low voltage (24Vdc) of heat energy
that is transferred to the bases. Touching the plug contacts with your fingers or a wet cleaning rag while emulating a plugged base will not cause any danger to
the operator.
Defective Bases
•
Each slot is individually and continuously monitoring for defective bases. IF the base is defective a red blinking light will appear beside the slot.
Replace the defective base with a new base and an orange blinking light will indicate heating.
• In case a base has a short-circuit or poor connection, the electronics will recognize it within seconds and will not heat the base. The charger will not
be damaged. A red blinking light will appear next to the base. Replace the base with a new base. The base will heat normally with an orange blinking light,
indicating heating.
IV. Set Up and Operating Instructions
1. Turn off and unplug or disconnect power to charger before performing cleaning or maintenance/service.
2. Use clean cloth to wipe charger compartment shelves.
3. Clean outside of charger with a nonabrasive cloth dampened with a solution of warm water and mild soap or detergent.
Or use a commercial stainless steel cleaner, following manufacturer’s directions. See Safety Instructions and Warnings for complete details.
4. Before plugging in charger after cleaning, ensure power cord is not frayed, damaged and plug blades are not bent or broken or missing.
Replace cord/plug immediately if damaged with approved Cambro
®
replacement parts only. Call for service.
5. Place base with socket pins facing up for cleaning through dishwasher. Failure to do so may result in bent or damaged pins that will not connect properly
into power pin socket.
6. The Camduction
®
Base is made of two separate parts that are factory assembled: a base and a base rim.
When dirt and grime buildup, disassemble and reassemble for cleaning by following the directions on page (4).
