2. INSTALLATION

Where the appliance is to be positioned in close proximity to a
wall, partition, kitchen furniture, decorative finishes, etc., it is
recommended that they be made of a non combustible
material or clad in a suitable non-combustible heat insulating
material and that the closest attention be paid to fire
preventative regulations.
The appliance is fitted with a 13 Amp fused plug and only
requires connection to a suitable 13 Amp socket outlet. This
model is suitable for 230 - 240V A.C. supply only. Ensure that the

3. USE AND BEST PERFORMANCE

Retail merchandisers have been designed to display ready
prepared food for sale and give the operator maximum control
over the temperature at which the food is held.
The right hand on/off switch controls all power to the unit.
Switching it off disables everything. Switching it on, returns the
unit to where it was before switch off. If the 3 shelf switches are
off, then switching on the main switch puts the controllers into
thermometer mode, reading the temperatures of the shelves.
Each shelf can now be switched individually. Operating a shelf
switch lights the lamp above the shelf and energises the
heating element in the shelf.
It is important to realize that the temperatures displayed are the
shelf temperatures and do not indicate the temperature of the
food itself. The temperature of some foods may be 15ºC below
the temperature of the shelf. Food should only be placed
50mm in from the left and right hand edges of the shelves. This
is because there is no heating in these areas.
The empty unit will take approximately 30 minutes to reach set
operating temperatures. Before placing any food on a shelf,
make sure the display is showing the desired operating
temperature.
The controllers in your retail merchandiser have been preset in
the factory at 95ºC. Should your application require a higher or
lower setting, the operating temperature can be changed to
any temperature between 85ºC and 105ºC, you can't set the
temperature outside of this range.
To adjust the set temperature, follow the procedure below:
(a) Press and hold the left hand side button (i). The display will
change to the set point temperature.
(b) Keep the (i)button pressed. Use the centre up down (^/v)
buttons to select the desired temperature between 85ºC and
105ºC.
(c) Once the desired set point is reached, release all buttons
and the display will revert to measured temperature.

ADJUSTING SHELF HEIGHT

The shelves are not designed to be removed completely. The
shelves can be raised or lowered by 15mm. Firstly remove the
fixing plates. These are only required for transit and don't need
to be replaced after adjusting the shelves. To disengage shelf,
