Heater Installation
Heater Panels
and Controllers
The brackets may either be mounted along the length or width of
1
the heater panel. For heater panels with lights, please allow 1/4" of
space above the light housing.
Remove mounting brackets from the heater panel and save the
2
screws.
1
1. Measure the mounting clips or remove
them and use them as a template when
mounting the panel.
Attach the mounting bracket to the mounting studs.
3
Position the heater panel to the mounting brackets and secure the
4
panel in place using the screws from step 2.
2. Light Housing depending on the model.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of fire, this appliance should be installed in non-combustible surroundings only. There should be no combustible material
within 18 inches of the sides, front, or rear of the appliance or within 40 inches above the appliance. The appliance is to be mounted to noncombustible surfaces and radiate to non-combustible floors. These surfaces and floors should extend no less than 12 inches beyond the
appliance on all sides.

Start Up
NOTE: During the first few hours of operation, the heaters may produce a faint odor. This is normal and the odor will disappear after the first few hours
of use.
The heater panel and control are tested and calibrated at the factor y before shipment. However, temperature and climate changes during shipment
can allow the insulation in the heater panel to absorb moisture. During the first few hours the unit is in use, this moisture is driven from the insulation
while the insulation dries. The drying insulation often gives off a faint odor which will disappear after a few hours.
Setting Recommendations
Due to different airflow patterns found in each store, the actual heater settings for each store will be different. Air flow patterns are affected by drivethrough windows, open front and rear doors, air conditioning and make up air vents. All of these sources of air will draw heat away from the food. Below
are some recommended settings that may be used as a starting point before making final adjustments for each restaurant.
NOTE: A higher temperature setting will yield hotter food temperatures; however, the higher temperature will result in more moisture being driven from
the food. At the end of the maximum hold time, an ideal temperature setting will result in food that is at or above the minimum serving temperature and
still meets all quality requirements.
Distance versus Temperature Setting
Style 1
If the maximum distance between the heating surface and the surface
on which the food is placed is 20 inches, the recommended
adjustment range is from 7 to 10.
Distance versus Temperature Setting
Style 2
If the maximum distance between the heating surface and the surface
on which the food is placed is 15 inches, the recommended
adjustment range is from 4 to 7.
Temperature Adjustment
Each heater panel has a separate On/Off switch and a separate temperature adjustment. To adjust the temperature, put a blade screwdriver in the
temperature adjustment pot. Turn the pot counterclockwise to decrease the temperature and clockwise to increase the temperature. Stop turning the
pot when the blade is pointing at the desired value.
