2. USE AND BEST PERFORMANCE
Caution Operator:
This appliance must only be operated by suitably trained or qualified persons aged 16 years and above who have read and
understood this manual. An operator is defined as the person who is responsible for switching the appliance on, adjusting
the temperature and its safe use.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
2.1. SCOPE OF OPERATION
This unit is only to be used to hold hot ready cooked products at a temperature to comply with the Food Hygiene Regulations.
This unit is not designed to heat up products from cold/ambient temperatures.
This unit has been designed to display ready prepared food for sale and to give the operator maximum control over the temperature
at which the food is held.
2.2. START-UP PROCEDURE
To obtain the best performance, follow the procedure below,
(a) Ensure the unit is connected to the power supply.
(b) The controls are located behind the lower front panel. Pull
the handle to swing the panel forward.
(c) Turn the unit on using the 'Power' Switch. This switches on
and off all power to the heating and lighting.
(d) All controllers will retain their previous temperature settings.
On first use this will be the factory setting (100ºC).
(e) The empty unit will take approximately 60 minutes to reach
set operating temperatures. Before placing any product on the
shelves, make sure the displays are showing the set operating
temperatures, or at a stable maximum (see below).
Figure 1 - Details of control panel
(f) It is possible that, given variations in environmental
conditions and the electrical power supply, the temperature
display will not achieve the set point. This does not indicate that the unit is faulty, only that the unit is running at full power.
(g) The temperature displays indicate the air temperatures coming from the vents at the front of the shelves not the product
temperature. The air temperatures where the product is displayed will be lower. The required setting to suit each customer's product
can be found through experimentation.
(h) When loading, the product it should only be placed up to 50mm in from the left and right hand edges of the shelves, as there is
no heating in these areas.
(i) The operating temperature of each shelf, and the deck area, can be controlled individually by adjusting the appropriate controller,
see Section 2.3.
Note:
The unit is primarily designed to maintain an even product temperature across all shelves, by setting all shelves to the same set
point. Some variation in the product temperatures on different shelves can be achieved by altering the individual shelf set
points, but the temperature variation is limited.
2.3. ADJUSTING THE UNIT TEMPERATURE (SET POINT)
To adjust the operating temperature, follow the procedure below:
(a) Locate the controllers at the front of the unit (open the Front Panel) .
(b) Press and hold the left hand side button (i). The display will change to the set point
temperature.
(c) Keep the i button pressed Use the centre up down (^/v) buttons to select the
