Operation - Delfield EHEI36C Installation And Operation Manual

OPERATION: ESSw36, EODC36S & EHEI SERIES (ELECTRIC)
Before the unit is used the first time for serving, turn the
temperature knob to HIGH and heat the well for 30 minutes. Any
residue or dust that adhered to the heater element(s) will burn off
during this initial preheat period.
When using thick sauces always operate the hot food well filled
with water. This will provide a more uniform temperature for the
sauce.
Steam can cause serious burns. Always wear some
type of protective covering on your hands and arms
when removing lids or pans from the unit. Lift the lid
or pan in a way that will direct escaping steam away
from your face and body.
Never place food directly into the well. Always use
pans.
Although these models may be operated either with or without
water in the wells, wet operation is recommended.
Always place covers on pans when not serving to prevent food
from drying out and to reduce your operating cost.
For most efficient operation when empty, keep covered insets in
each well during preheating and when the well is not in use.
Do not put food down drain.
