The Merco Holding Cabinet has been designed to afford 

foodservice operators the ability to cook menu components in 

advance and then gently store that product in the holding bins 

until an order is received. Once that order has been placed, 

the crew can assemble the order using hot and fresh menu 

components from the holding bins. This allows for operators 

to serve to order, helping increase speed of service while 

maintaining high product quality standards.

The holding bin controller is, at all times, operating in one of 

three modes:

• 

Normal mode

• 

Programming mode

• 

Diagnostic mode

Instructions for each of these operating modes are detailed 

below.

If the supply cord appears to be damaged, do not 

attempt to operate unit. Contact service agent or 

qualified technician to repair. 

When holding potentially hazardous foods, the 

minimum shelf temperature must be 220°F for the 

upper-bin heating element and 200°F for the lower-bin 

heating element.

Normal Mode

This is the normal mode of operation. The product for each bin 

is displayed, timers are activated for loaded bins, alarms are 

generated for cook more and expired product.
