welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of Winston’s CVap® hold & serve drawer. You will
benefit from accurate serving temperatures, longer hold times, less food waste and
happier customers. CVap (Controlled Vapor) technology has been providing the
foodservice industry with a superior method of holding foods since 1980. CVap
equipment utilizes a dual heat system, combined with electronic differential controls
to hold foods hot, without sacrificing texture. Moist foods stay moist, crisp foods stay
crisp, assuring the highest possible quality throughout long serving periods.

DUAL HEAT SYSTEM

The CVap dual heat system converts air and vapor into a dual heat agent that has
two separate and independent qualities. Food Temperature allows you to select the
optimum serving temperature. Food Texture enables you to select the food’s texture,
from moist to crisp.

COMPUTERIZED PROCESSOR CONTROLS

The eight channel processor controls WATER TEMPERATURE (food temperature)

from off/100˚F to 210˚F for precise food temperature control and AIR
TEMPERATURE (food texture) from 100˚F to 210˚F for food texture control. The

controls never need field calibration.

hold & serve drawer

The controller is factory programmed to hold food in just-cooked condition. It

features eight timer channels and two food temperature and food texture programs.
The timers numbered 1 through 4 are associated with day part one and will run
simultaneously. The timers numbered 5 through 8 are associated with day part two
and will run simultaneously. To cancel a timer, press its key once. Then, within five
seconds, press and hold its key. The LED will turn off and the controller will return to
the least remaining time.

HOLD & SERVE DRAWER

Winston’s CVap hold & serve drawers are designed for high quality hot food holding
with rapid recovery for frequent drawer openings. Units are built with durable
stainless steel construction, full insulation and designed for high volume usage. The
HBM5 Series features a radial fan for improved food quality with frequent openings.

We want you to be happy with your new appliance. Should you have any questions,

please call our customer service center at 1-800-234-5286.

CVap® hold and serve appliance.

WARNING:

Operating this appliance can be dangerous.
Read, understand, and obey the following warnings. If you do not you could be
burned, badly hurt, or killed!

WARNING:

Do not place appliance in an area where ambient temperatures (air
temperatures around the appliance) exceed 100ºF. A heat shield may be
required to prevent excessive heat exposure and grease laden vapors from
affecting the appliance if adjacent to heat, vapor, or grease generating devices
(such as grills, steamers, ovens, etc.). Excess heat and grease inside the
appliance cavities may cause electrical components to fail.

• Have appliance serviced ONLY by a licensed electrician or trained servicer.

Service of appliance in volves elec tri cal and high tem per a ture hazards which can
cause death, personal injury or prop er ty damage.

• If an electrical shock is felt when touching appliance, disconnect power cord

im me di ate ly and call a trained servicer for repair. If you don't, you could

be elec tro cut ed!

• Always turn power switch off any time appliance is not in use. If you don't,
electric shock can cause death, personal injury or property damage.

• Always perform daily cleaning procedures for this appliance. Build-up of food
res i dues high in acid or chlorides can cause permanent damage to the stain-

less steel and can contaminate foods!

• Always allow appliance to cool before cleaning. If you don't, you could be
badly burned!

CAUTION: Clean evaporator daily to prevent chlorides (salts) from accumulating,

causing the evaporator tank to corrode to the extent that leaks will occur. Experience
has shown that leaks will occur only through failure to clean and rinse the evaporator

daily. LEAKING EVAPORATORS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

CAUTION: Prior to using appliance for the first time, perform the daily cleaning

procedure listed on pages 12 and 13.

SHIPPING DAMAGE

All equipment should be thoroughly examined for shipping damage before, during

and after unloading. It has been carefully inspected at our factory and the carrier
has assumed responsibility for its safe arrival. If the equipment is damaged,
either apparent or concealed, a claim must be made to the carrier.

APPARENT LOSS OR DAMAGE

If there is an obvious loss or damage, it must be noted on the freight bill or express

receipt and signed by the carrier’s agent; otherwise, the carrier may refuse the
claim. The carrier will supply the necessary forms.

CONCEALED LOSS OR DAMAGE

When loss or damage is not apparent until after the equipment is uncrated, a claim
for concealed damage must be made. Upon discovering damage, make a request in
writing to the carrier for inspection within 15 days, and retain all packing. The carrier

will supply an inspection report and the required claim forms.

WATER SUPPLY

The evaporator of this appliance must be filled each day and during use from a
potable water supply. As water evaporates from the dual heat surface of the
evaporator, any minerals in the water will deposit on those surfaces. Consequently,
the mineral deposits on the surfaces inhibit the ability to transfer heat through the
deposits, and the stainless steel on which they are deposited can be degraded and

destroyed. The first protection against this is the daily cleaning procedure. It is also

recommended that your supplier of potable water be contacted for advice to
minimize mineral deposit build-up. This equipment is to be installed to comply

with the applicable federal, state, or local plumbing codes.

Appliances with automatic water fill systems are to be installed with adequate
backflow protection to comply with federal, state, and local codes.

ELECTRIC

The appliance is shipped from the factory with a 7' (minimum) power cord and plug.
For the convenience of servicer and operators, do not wire direct. For specific
electrical information on this appliance, see name plate.

VENTING AND VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS

Ventilation clearances - Allow space around appliance for good air circulation.

Installation of this appliance requires that a minimum 2” clearance from any

obstruction or combustible material be maintained at all locations where there are
ventilation holes in the appliance. The appliance must be installed with its supplied
legs, feet, or casters. Countertop appliances specifically supplied without legs or

casters may be set directly upon a countertop of non-combustible material. In this

situation, the appliance may have to be sealed to the countertop with a food-grade
silicone sealant (check local health codes). Your warranty may be void if you do not
adhere to the instructions above.

Vent hood - Generally this appliance does not need to be installed under a

mechanical ventilation system (vent hood). Check local health and fire codes for
requirements specific to your location.
