CAUTION
This equipment is designed and sold for commercial use only by personnel trained
and experienced in its operation and is not sold for consumer use in and around the
home nor for use directly by the general public in food service locations.
INSTALLATION
These food warmers are equipped for the voltage and wattage indicated on the
nameplate mounted to the back panel and are designed for use on alternating current
(AC) only. Serious damage may result if appliance is used with incorrect voltage.
CAUTION
DO NOT CONNECT TO DIRECT CURRENT (DC).
GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before using the soup kettle, clean the water and soup bowls and its cover if furnished
with the kettle.
2. Do not operate the kettle dry. Place water in the water bowl (14 ounces of water for
11 qt. Model, 26 ounces for the 7 qt. Model).
3. ThetemperaturecontrolonthesekettlesisacombinationOn/Offswitchwithaninnite control. The "OFF" position will turn off the electric current to the heating element.
4. If PRE-HEATING IS DESIRED SET THE CONTROL AT "HI" for approximately 20-30
minutes. Prolonged "HI" setting may result in overcooking or scorching of certain
food.
5. Set the dial to the number required to maintain the temperature desired. Because
the consistency of different food varies, and because liquids and solids absorb heat at
different rates, it is impractical to specify the exact dial setting. Therefore, we have
indicated the setting with a series of numbers. A little experience will give you the
proper setting for various foods you are serving.
6. The soup cookers are equipped with a warning light to prevent overheating or
scorching of certain soups. When the light is on, all electric current to the heating elements will be off. Turn the heat setting down to a lower setting and wait 5-10 minutes
for the light to go out. It would also be advisable to check the water level in the water
bowl.
7. Turn the control to the "OFF" position when the unit is not in use.
CAUTION
DO NOT OVER-HEAT THE UNIT.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Change water in water bowl daily and remove any food collection that may have
entered the water bath. Clean soup bowl, cover and the kettle at a sink with soap
and water.
The exterior surfaces of the warmer can be kept clean and attractive by wiping or
washing regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Any discoloration on
the bowls and cover can be removed with a non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use an
abrasive cleaner as the attractive coatings will be affected adversely.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
Contact the factory, a service representative or a local service company for service or
required maintenance.
