Before using the heated holding cabinet, thoroughly clean
the unit as described in the Cleaning Procedures Section
of this manual.
For CDT units: To operate the unit, move the power switch to the ON position.
Select either the A or B mode by depressing the UP button
for A, or the DOWN button for B.
The display shows an increasing temperature indicating the cabinet
is heating. When the operating pre-set temperature is reached, the
display reads 74ºC + 3ºC (165ºF + 5ºF) inthe A mode, or 85ºC +
3ºC (185ºF + 5ºF) in the B mode.
Place product inside the drawers, and press the appropriate
timer button.
For electromechanical units: Turn the power switch to the ON position to operate the cabinet.
The power light illuminates, indicating the unit is operating.
The water light illuminates, indicating water is flowing into the
water pan. When the pan is full, the light goes out and the water
stops flowing.
A 10 second delay occurs before the float switch activates
the water solenoid. This prevents overworking the components if the cabinet is bumped, or moved.
The heat light illuminates, indicating the unit is heating. Once
operating temperature is reached, the light goes out. The operating
temperature is factory preset and is reached within one hour.
3-4. OPERA TION WITH 1. Place hot product in the wire baskets, or pans, inside the
PRODUCT drawers.
2. Serve the product first, that has been in the cabinet the longest.
3. Open the drawers only as necessary to load and serve product.
