WARNING
Read all safety messages in the Important Safety
Information section before operating this equipment.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAzARD:
• Do not use unit to melt or hold ice. Doing so may cause
condensation, creating an electrical hazard and
causing personal injury and/or damage to unit. Damage
caused by condensation is not covered by warranty.
• For units without Auto-Fill, turn off unit when filling with
water and avoid splashing.
NOTICE
Standard and approved manufacturing oils may smoke up
to 30 minutes during initial startup. This is a temporary
condition. Operate unit without food product until smoke
dissipates.
Unit must be allowed to cool down to room temperature
before changing from wet-to-dry or dry-to-wet operation.
Allowing unit to run dry during wet operation or adding
water during dry operation will damage unit.
Hatco Built-In Heated Wells are designed for WET or DRY
operation. Hatco recommends wet operation for consistent food
heating. If the unit is operating wet and is allowed to run dry,
turn it off and allow to cool before adding water.
Startup
1. Prepare the heated well for operation.
• If using the well for wet operation without auto-Fill, make
sure the drain valve is closed (if equipped) and manually
fill the well with hot tap water until the water is a
maximum of 1-1/4" (32 mm) deep.
• If the unit is equipped with the auto-Fill option, make
sure the drain valve is closed
2. move the ON/OFF (I/O) switch to the ON (I) position. The
indicator light on the switch glows when the unit is on.
• If the unit is equipped with the auto-Fill option, the
ON/OFF (I/O) switch will activate the auto-Fill system
when it is moved to the ON (I) position. The well will fill
with water until the water reaches the water level sensor
in the well. During operation, the auto-Fill system will
maintain the water level automatically using the water
level sensor.
3. Turn the Temperature Control Knob to adjust the
temperature of the unit to the desired safe food
temperature.
4. allow heated well to preheat for approximately
30 minutes.
