CARE AND CLEANING : Cart & Buffet Server

Before initial use and after each subsequent use, wash removable parts* in warm sudsy water, rinse and
dry. The clear lids are top-rack dishwasher safe.The most effective and safe way to clean the warming tray
base is with a mild detergent and a soft moist cloth. Do not use any scouring agents! DO NOT SUBMERGE
THE WARMING TRAY BASE OR LET THE HEAT CONTROL COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER.
* Skirt does not need to be washed before initial use. Wash nylon, fire-retardant skirt when necessary. Do
not use bleach. (Replacement skirts are avaialble for purchase if/when desired.)
If there is any food residue remaining on the surface, it should be removed after each use. To do so,
scrub gently with a fine cleansing pad such as nylon mesh or other ordinary cleansing pad. DO NOT USE
STEEL WOOL OR ABRASIVE KITCHEN CLEANERS. To polish, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Any
food residue remaining can be whisked away with a gentle stroke of a nylon mesh pad. Rinse and wipe
dry. Do not allow water to spill or seep into frame. NOTE: It is normal for the heating surface to eventually
discolor due to heat. Any maintenance required for this product other than normal household care

and cleaning, should be performed by our Factory.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

To reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage when using electrical appliances,

basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.

2.

Do not touch hot surfaces! Always Use Handles. Always use hot pads or pot holders until unit cools.

3.

To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse tray base, cord or plug in water or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool completely before
putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning or storing the appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions
or has been damaged in any manner. Call the Cadco Factory Service Department at 860­738-2500 for a Return for Repair Authorization, or for the nearest authorized service center.
(**See back page for Warranty info (Cart/buffet server warranty applies in 48 contiguous US

states only.)

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may
cause injuries.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

11. It is recommended that this appliance not be moved when it contains hot oil or other hot liquid.

12. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. They can scratch and ruin the finish of your unit.

13. Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn
any control to Off, then remove plug from wall outlet.

14. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

DO NOT USE PLASTIC DISHES OR PLASTIC WRAP ON WARMING SURFACE .

15.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: A 72(6) power supply cord (or cord set) (for cart/buffet server; range has its own

separate cord) has been provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords may be used if care is properly
exercised in their use. If a long cord set or extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of
the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where
it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

The high-tech warming surface will remain unblemished for a long time with appropriate care.
The warming surface and high-grade, long-life stainless chafing pans allow for an attractive
alternative for keeping appetizers and other foods warm. For best results use nylon, plastic, wooden
or rubber utensils. Metal utensils may be used with care but should not be used to cut food on
the cooking surfaces.

HOW TO USE

Before using for the first time, become familiar with the Buffet Cart features, Figure A. Wash
removable parts in warm sudsy water, rinse and dry. Clean the warming tray base & cart with a
mild detergent and a soft moist cloth. Do not use any scouring agents! DO NOT SUBMERGE THE
WARMING BASE OR LET THE PLUG COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER. Rinse and wipe dry.
Do not allow water to spill or seep into the frame.

Assemble Cart

1. Attach the casters to the bottom of the cart legs. (Casters just pop into the bottom of the legs.)

positioning/ stabilizing knobs. (Fig. B)

3. Attach skirt to cart (on sides & front) with Velcro strips provided.

holder, and put the lids in place.

Initial Use (Buffet Server) (Fig. C):

Turn unit on by pressing the ON/OFF rocker switch at the back of the cart to the ON position.
Turn the variable thermostat knob counterclockwise to maximum setting. Heat the warming

base without foods on it for approximately 10 minutes in order to seal the special coating. (Only

Subsequent Use:

1. The buffet server heating element is equipped with a variable thermostat knob, located in back

of cart. Heat range is from 155

to quickly reach your desired temperature, then adjust to desired temperature. Set heat level
by turning the knob so that the white line on the knob mark lines up with the signal light line.

2. The light will come on

trays, it can be 20-30 minutes before the light cycles off.
