OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
START-UP
Overview
These units are designed to heat stainless steel bases and
china plates. The fan motor, heating element, and power indicator light will come on once the unit is turned on.
The fan motor will begin to circulate the heated air in
and around the plates/bases in a convection process that
promotes a quick and even heat absorption by the
plates/bases.
Once the air inside the cabinet has reached the desired and
preset temperature, the thermostats will continue to maintain
this temperature by regulating the power to the heating
element. The fan motor will run as long as each compartment
is energized.
13. See ELECTRICAL and START-UP sections before
plugging unit into power supply.

Operation
1. Plug the unit into the electrical outlet.
2. Lift open lid until it latches securely in safety latch (FIGURE
5). Place bases and plates into the self-leveling dispensers
as required, or until the dispensers are filled to the top.
Be sure to place each into the appropriate side, as marked
(Figure 4). Placing plates in the base side will overheat and
may damage plates. Bases will not heat up to proper
temperature if placed in the plate side. Always keep the
load leveled on the shelf or it could bind.
Figure 4
3. Close lids on the top of the unit by lifting up on the safety
latch (FIGURE 5).
4. Turn the power switch to the ON position. Green LED on
switch will illuminate.
5. Heat-up time period for bases and plates varies, depending on
number and style of each. Minimum heat-up time for a full unit
is one hour for lunch and dinner meals, and an hour and a half
for morning breakfast meal.
Dispensing
CAUTION: Operators should always wear gloves or use base/plate
lifters when dispensing.
