FOR REFERENCE ONLY

USING YOUR COOKTEK CHAFING DISH

● Remove your chafing dish and all associated packing material from the dish

itself. Save all packaging materials for subsequent shipment or in case of
concealed shipping damage.

● Fill the base of the dish with approximately 2” (5cm) of water.

● Place the chafing dish on the associated buffet charger.

● The charger will beep indicating that it has recognized the chafing dish and is

ready to heat.

● Adjust the temperature accordingly. The charger will only allow you to set
temperatures between 80º-250ºF (30º-120ºC). See the buffet charger manual
for more specific operating instructions.

REMOVING THE INSERT, RELOADING, & DISH FEATURES

● Locate the small knob on the left side of the chafing dish, just below the rim of

the insert as indicated on the picture below.

● Push the knob with your finger in the upward direction to pop the insert up. This
will allow you to grasp the insert and remove it without touching the food.

● The water recycling system is designed to direct condensation from the inside
of the lid back into the bottom of the dish.
USE CAUTION TO NOT HEAT THE WATER ABOVE 195ºF/90ºC AS THIS
TEMPERATURE WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE CONDENSATION AND YOU MAY
EXPERIENCE SPILLAGE ONTO THE BUFFET CHARGER SURFACE WHEN
OPENING THE CHAFING DISH LID.

● The level adjustable support can be raised up and down to provide stability to
the dish when opening the lid.

REMOVING SCREWS ON HINGES OR

PANS WILL VOID WARRANTY

To remove the lid:

REMOVING THE CHAFING DISH LID

NOTE: The lid does not lock open at the 60 degree point. It only locks at 90

degrees. The lid will slowly close from the 60 degree point after the customers
have served themselves.

● Open the dish completely to a 90 degree angle.

● Lift the lid up by the handle on the lid. It should slide right out.

● To re-insert the lid, line up the hinge and slide back into place.

NOTE: To remove the lid, the chafing dish lid must be in the vertical position.

HINGE ADJUSTMENT

To adjust the 60 degrees detent:

● Close the lid and turn the screws (indicated below).

● Turn the screws clockwise to decrease the rate of closing.

● Turn the screws counterclockwise to increase the rate of closing.

● Test the change by opening the lid. If it is too hard to open, loosen the screws

and test again.

To change the rate the lid closes when it is not in the 60 degree detent position:

● Remove the lid as described above.

● Locate the two screws on the end of the hinge to adjust (indicated below).

● Tighten both screws to decrease the rate of closing.

● Loosen both screws to increase the rate of closing.

These screws can only be adjusted with the lid removed as they are located on the
hinge of the lid. They are located on each side of the lid hinge.

WARNING

Hinges on the lid and pan are a non-serviceable part.

ANY REMOVAL OR TAMPERING WILL VOID THE

WARRANTY. Never back any of the screws out

completely as there are many parts connected to the

screw. The diagrams on page 4 are for

REFERENCE ONLY

CARE OF CHAFING DISHES

● The chafing dish is not dishwasher safe.

● Use an all-purpose cleaner to polish and remove fingerprints and marks from

the stainless steel.

● Always ensure all cleaning products are approved and safe for food surfaces.

● As mentioned on page 2, adjust the lid and hinges based on how the lid is

closing and locking.

● Always allow the dish to dry completely before heating the dish.

.

WARNING

NEVER PREHEAT the water bath portion of your chafing

dish. Heating the water bath portion of the dish above

250ºF/120ºC may damage the RFID system on the dish.

NEVER disassemble the hinges on the dish or lid.

THIS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
