IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Read the following important safety information before using this equipment to avoid serious

injury or death and to avoid damage to equipment or property.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD:

• Units require a hardwired connection to on-site electrical system. Connection must be properly grounded and of correct voltage, size, and configuration for electrical specifications of unit. Contact a qualified electrician to determine and install proper electrical connection.

• Unit must be installed by a qualified electrician. Installation must conform to all local electrical codes. Installation by unqualified personnel will void unit warranty and may lead to electric shock or burn, as well as damage to unit and/or its surroundings.

• Control box must be mounted in a vertical surface. Mounting control box in a horizontal surface may result in the collection of liquids and lead to electric shock.

• Turn OFF power switch, turn off power at circuit breaker, and allow unit to cool before performing any cleaning, adjustments, or maintenance.

• DO NOT submerge or saturate with water. Unit is not waterproof. Do not operate if unit has been submerged or saturated with water.

• This unit is not “jet-proof” construction. Do not use jet-clean spray to clean this unit.

• Do not steam clean or use excessive water on unit.

• Use only Genuine Hatco Replacement Parts when service is required. Failure to use Genuine Hatco Replacement Parts will void all warranties and may subject operators of the equipment to hazardous electrical voltage, resulting in electrical shock or burn. Genuine Hatco Replacement Parts are specified to operate safely in the environments in which they are used. Some after-market or generic replacement parts do not have the characteristics that will allow them to operate safely in Hatco equipment.

FIRE HAZARD:

• Do not install high wattage units above or around combustible surfaces. Discoloration or combustion could occur. High wattage units must be installed in non-combustible surroundings only.

• Make sure to follow the installation information listed below for specific strip heaters. If safe distances are not maintained, discoloration or combustion could occur.

a. Do not install standard wattage strip heaters (GR5A,

GR5AL models) less than 11ʺ (279 mm) above

combustible surfaces.

b. Do not install high wattage strip heaters (GR5AH,

GR5AHL models) less than 10ʺ (254 mm) above

non-combustible surfaces.

c. Do not install standard wattage units less than 1ʺ

(25 mm) away from a combustible wall or adjacent surface.

EXPLOSION HAZARD: Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

Make sure all operators have been instructed on the safe and proper use of the unit.

This unit is not intended for use by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities. Ensure proper supervision of children and keep them away from the unit.

Use only Hatco-approved LED light assemblies that are designed specifically for food holding areas. Using LED light assemblies not designed for food holding areas could result in personal injury and/or food contamination.

Make sure food product has been heated to the proper food-safe temperature before placing in unit. Failure to heat food product properly may result in serious health risks. This unit is for holding pre-heated food product only.

This unit has no “user-serviceable” parts. If service is required on this unit, contact an Authorized Hatco Service Agent or contact the Hatco Service Department at 800-558-0607 or 414-671-6350.

BURN HAZARD: Some exterior surfaces on the unit will get hot. Use caution when touching these areas.
