States Public Health Service recommends that food be held at a minimum of 140˚ F (and/or in compliance

with local health codes) to prevent bacteria growth. Maintain water level at 4 quarts. Periodically,
(approximately every 2 hours) remove food pan and check the water level. Add hot water if needed and
