HOLDING mode includes a sounding
alarm to indicate the rethermalization
process (RETHERM + EQUALIZE) is
complete. The cart can be removed at any
time. The temperature set point for the hot side
chamber has a lower setting than the EQUALIZE
mode. The fans will continue to run to enhance
the saturation process. The timer will display
the number of minutes held and count up to the
duration setting (default 10 minute duration,
max. hold 60 minute duration). Once the
programmed holding time is reached, all

mode may be automatically activated.
During this mode, the refrigeration cooling
used during the CHILLING mode will turn off for
the programmed duration (default 10 minutes) of
the DEFROST mode. The fans will still operate.
This mode ensures the coils inside the dock do
not freeze while receiving extended periods of
refrigeration cooling in the CHILLING mode.
Once the DEFROST duration expires ,the
system will return to the CHILLING
mode. This mode will not activate
during the rethermalization
cycle.

I. INTRODUCTION
Convect-Rite™ III Docking Stations
The Convect-Rite™ III Docking Stations are installed and electrically connected in the
ward pantry for a decentralized operation or grouped in one area for a centralized operation. Operation and programming of these units is shown in the Owners Manual. The
Convect-RiteTM III Docking Station is a dual cold and hot air-generator, which may be
used up to three times a day in the Auto mode:
•
To keep the meals at the recommended and safe temperature of
37/41°F (+3°C/+5°C) during stand-by periods prior to rethermalization.
•
To rethermalize starters, soups, hot desserts or main-courses in
approximately 50-60 minutes before service.
•
IMPORTANT NOTE: The food products in the cold section, should be at
maximum homogeneous 50°F (10°C) temperature when loaded inside the
cart, so that the Convect-RiteTM III System can keep them between 37
and 41°F (+3° and +5°C) at the end of the chill-down and rethermalization
cycle.
•
A minimum chill-down cycle of 50 minutes is recommended prior to
rethermalization to assure the lowest possible cold food temperatures.

TEST BOOT
With the unit still on all four casters, and after the hard wire connection
is complete, switch the breaker on for the unit and then turn on the
unit (the switch located on the upper right front of the unit). The unit
should boot up and the screen should display the time & “Idle”
(see gure to right) Turn the unit and breaker back off. If the unit
does not boot correctly check electrical connection. For further
information call Aladdin Tech Service 1 (800) 888-5426.
SETTING AGAINST THE WALL
Make adequate space and thoroughly clean the location before you begin the install.The Docking
Station has eight adjustable feet (four on the back & four on the bottom). When starting the
install process all eight feet should be completely seated. Gently push unit within 1/4” of the
wall. Loosen the 7/8” jam nuts on the back four feet. Adjust all four back feet close to the
wall but not touching it. Extend one foot at a time to touch the wall, trying to keep the unit
parallel to the wall as possible (due to wall inconsistency all four feet may be adjusted to
different lengths) NOTE: Recommend adjusting the top feet until the Docking Station sits at
a 5° angle away from the wall as a starting position.
LIFTING THE UNIT OFF THE CASTERS
NOTE: If feet are unevenly set the unit’s frame may be damaged by racking.
The Convect-Rite™ III Docking Station MUST BE LEVEL BOTH FRONT TO BACK AND SIDE TO
SIDE. Depending on oor condition reference gasket alignment between the cart and Docking Station to insure proper gasket seal for correct positioning.
Ensure that both caster locks point away from the wall, and are 90˚ to the wall in the locked
position.
The four feet on the base of the Docking Station are adjustable to achieve this. Be mindful
when setting the feet that:
• A Docking Station set too low can result in interference between the lower cart hinge and
the Docking Station interface channel.
• A Docking Station set out of level right-to-left can result in an insufcient seal between
the unit and the gaskets on the cart.
• A Docking Station set out of level front-to-back can result in an insufcient seal between
the unit and cart and possibly make mating the cart more
difcult.
Loosen the 7/8” jam nuts on the four bottom feet. Then adjust the
four feet close to the oor, but not touching it. Slowly continue to
extend each foot a turn at a time, until the top of the base is 7.1”
(see diagram) off the ground (the caster should be off the ground at
this point). However, due to oor inconsistency, all four feet may be
adjusted to different lengths

the door support, dock the cart to the unit.
Adjust any necessary feet until a uniform
compression seal is formed around the cart.
You many need to dock & undock the cart
several time to ensure a proper t.
If the cart does not depress the latches
when engaged to the dock, (see diagram for
location) the latches need to be adjusted. To adjust rst loosen the holding screws, adjust
the latch bolts so the switches are in contact with the cart. To move the switches forward,
turn the bolts clockwise. To move backward, turn counter clockwise. Tighten the holding
screws.
