Food Finisher Operation
The quick heating, infrared ribbon heating element(s) in each
heating bay are activated by the placement of a plate or tray on
the adjustable shelf. The weight of the plate/tray causes the
adjustable shelf to swing down and back slightly, which
activates a switch. The switch signals the ribbon heating
element(s) to begin heating. Removing the plate/tray from the
adjustable shelf deactivates the switch and signals the ribbon
heating elements to return to stand-by mode.
• When a plate/tray is placed on an adjustable shelf, the
POWER ON indicator light for the corresponding heating
bay will illuminate (heating mode). When the plate/tray is
removed, the indicator light will shut off (stand-by mode).
• The bay dividers in between each heating bay are
removable to allow the use of a larger tray across two
adjustable shelves (make sure shelves are at the same
height).
• The TOP HEAT CONTROL knobs and BOTTOM HEAT
CONTROL knobs (TFWM-3939 only) provide a wide range
of adjustment to the heat intensity of the ribbon heating
elements. Test different food products in the unit to
determine the best settings for each.
