lifting the entire frame out.

The display case is intended to be operated with the rear doors in place. However,
during peak service periods, the doors may be removed for ease of serving out of case.
DO NOT keep doors off unit for long periods of time.

Light Replacement

This will allow bulb prongs to easily slide out of bulb receptacles located at each end of
the bulb.

The bulbs are furnished with plastic safety light shields. Make certain the light shields
are always in place to safeguard against bulb breakage.

When replacing lights, use direct equivalents to the original bulbs.

Placing Product into Case

CASE SHOULD BE STOCKED WITH PRE-CHILLED PRODUCT ONLY.
The display pans are removable for cleaning and can become dislodged in shipment.

To ensure proper airflow and performance of the case, make sure that the display pans
