INTRODUCTION

Hatco Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves are specially designed
to hold either heated foods or chilled foods at safe serving
temperatures. The insulated, top mount or bottom mount units
are available in several sizes.

The components of the Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves are
shipped as separate pieces that require field installation and
connection. This provides the end user greater installation
flexibility than self-contained units. The components include a
hot/cold shelf, a control panel, and a condensing unit. One year
parts and on-site labor warranty is standard.

Hatco Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves are products of
extensive research and field testing. The materials used were
selected for maximum durability, attractive appearance, and
optimum performance. Every unit is inspected and tested
thoroughly prior to shipment.

This manual provides the installation, safety, and operating
instructions for Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves. Hatco
recommends all installation, operating, and safety instructions
appearing in this manual be read prior to installation or
operation of the unit.

MODEL DESCRIPTION

All Models

Hatco Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves are reliable and
versatile. Each unit has an insulated, stainless steel and
aluminized steel housing. For hot operation, a surface­mounted, rope-style heating element distributes heat evenly
under the entire hardcoat aluminum or stone surface. For cold
operation, a copper evaporator coil wound under the entire
hardcoat aluminum or stone surface provides even chilling
from edge to edge. Hatco Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves
are designed, manufactured, and tested to maintain safe food
holding temperatures.

Controls for the Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves are housed
in a single, remote-mountable control enclosure. They include
a three position Power Switch and two digital temperature
controllers. The control enclosure is field connected to the
condensing unit and to the heating element.

Depending on the model, Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves
are designed to be mounted to either the topside or bottomside
of various types of countertop material including stainless steel,
wood, Corian, and Swanstone.

The ecoization logo identifies products designed to reflect
Hatco’s commitment to improving, protecting, and preserving
the global environment. Hatco Remote Hot/Cold Built-In
Shelves qualify for the ecoization logo through the use of eco­friendly insulation as well as a highly efficient condensing unit.

WARNING

CAUTION

INSTALLATION

General

Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves are shipped from the factory
as components that require installation and connection. Use
the following procedures to install each component and make
the appropriate connections.

NOTE: Make sure the installation location provides enough

room for the condensing unit and the remote mounted
control enclosure.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD:

• Plug unit into a properly grounded electrical receptacle
of the correct voltage, size, and plug configuration. If
plug and receptacle do not match, contact a qualified
electrician to determine and install proper voltage and
size electrical receptacle.

• Unit is not weatherproof. Locate unit indoors.

• Remote control enclosure must be mounted on vertical
wall and installed in vertical position. Mounting remote
control enclosure in horizontal position may result in
collection of liquids and lead to electric shock.

FIRE HAZARD: Install condensing unit with a minimum of

6″(152mm)ofspacebetweenallsidesofunitandany

combustible surfaces.

Locate unit at proper counter height in an area that is
convenient for use. The location should be strong enough
to support the weight of unit and contents.

NOTICE

Transport and install unit in upright position only. Failure
to do so may result in damage to refrigeration system.

This unit is designed for use in environments where
ambient temperature is between 65°F (18°C) and 86°F
(30°C).

When shipped during cold weather months, store unit
for at least 10 hours in an environment where ambient
temperature is between 65°F (18°C) and 86°F (30°C) to
prevent compressor and/or refrigerant line damage. If unit
is turned on and there is excessive noise and vibration,
turn off immediately and allow additional warmup time.

Provide louvered or grill-style openings with a minimum

sizeof12″x12″/144squareinches(31x31cm/961square

cm) in the cabinetry in front of and behind the condensing
unit for proper ventilation. Failure to provide adequate air
flow through the condensing unit may cause unit failure
and will void the unit warranty.

Do not recirculate exhaust air inside cabinet when multiple
condensing units are installed together. Intake air should
enter from outside of cabinet.

Do not locate unit in area with excessive air movement
around unit. Avoid areas that may be subject to active air
movements or currents (i.e., near exhaust fans/hoods, air
conditioning ducts, and exterior doors).

Do not locate unit in an area subject to excessive
temperatures or grease from grills, fryers, etc. Excessive
temperatures could cause damage to the unit.

NOTICE

Damage to any countertop material caused by heat or cold
generated from Hatco equipment is not covered under
the Hatco warranty. Contact manufacturer of countertop
material for application information.

All Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Shelves are shipped in a shipping
frame for protection and stability. Keep the unit in the shipping
frame until the unit and the installation site are completely
prepared for the unit to be installed.

Survey the installation site. Take into account the need for
louvered or grill-style openings in the cabinetry to provide
proper ventilation for the condensing unit as well as access to
the control panel. One of these ventilation openings must be in
front of the condensing coils with the other on the opposite side.
If multiple condensing units are installed in the same counter,
each unit should intake cool air and expel hot air.

1. Remove all external packaging from the unit.

NOTE: To prevent delay in obtaining warranty coverage,

complete online warranty registration. See the
IMPORTANT OWNER INFORMATION section for
details.

2. Remove tape, protective packaging, and literature from all
surfaces of the unit.
