3. USE AND BEST PERFORMANCE
The Banquetline cupboard has been designed to hold and transport food and give the
operator maximum control over the temperature at which the food inside the cupboard
is being held.
It is important to realize that the temperature of the air inside the cupboard does not
indicate the temperature of the food itself. The temperature of some foods may be at
least 100 to 15oC below the temperature of the air inside the cupboard.
The empty cupboard will take approximately 30 minutes to reach the set operating
temperature. Before placing any food inside the cupboard make sure the display is
showing the desired air temperature of the cupboard.
The Banquetline cupboard is fitted with a microprocessor controller and has been preset
in the factory at 850C. Should your application require a higher or lower setting, the
operating temperature can be changed to any temperature between 650 and 950C, you
can not 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
65 oC and 95oC.
(c) Once the desired set point is reached, release all buttons and the display will
revert to measured temperature.
Foods with high moisture content (i.e. Mashed Potato) it is advisable to use lids on
containers to avoid excessive evaporation. A removable water tray is provided in the
base of the cupboard, which may be filled as required with hot water, in order to
increase the humidity inside the cupboard (capacity 4 pints / 2.2 Ltrs). The water tray
should be emptied and cleaned after each use.

AMBIENT / CHILLED CUPBOARD (BL100HCF2 ONLY)
The BL100HCF2 is fitted with a second cupboard, which can be used as an ambient
storage section or a chilled storage section (4 Eutectic plates required).
There are two options of eutectic plate available:
Chilling Grade 30C (Green Spot) Freeze for 12 hours minimum at -80C
Freezer Grade -160C (Red Spot) Freeze for 12 hours minimum at -200C
To obtain the best performance using this cupboard chilled, the following procedure is
suggested:
(a) Eutectic plates should be placed into a freezer for at least 12 hours prior to use,
please see above.
(b) Slide 2 eutectic plates into the brackets fitted at the top of the lower cupboard
and 2 into the brackets on the inside of the door approximately 20 minutes before
loading and close the door.
(c) All produce placed into the cupboard should be chilled prior to loading.
(d) Keep the cupboard door closed as much as possible during service to maintain
chilled temperature.
(e) After service, remove and clean the eutectic plates and refreeze.
Warning: Do not use eutectic plates that show signs of damage or leakage.
A thermometer has been provided in the door for your convenience to indicate the air
temperature within the lower cupboard.
4. CLEANING
SWITCH OFF THE UNIT AT THE MAINS BEFORE CLEANING.
Stainless steel surfaces will give you many years of trouble-free use as long as you follow a
few simple rules. If it appears to mark do not worry, it is usually not the steel but
something deposited on it which has stained.
Do wash all surfaces before use. You should use a damp cloth and a mild detergent or
soap, or similar cleaner. Always rinse well with clean water and dry the surface with a
soft cloth. Clean regularly when in use. Do use soft cloths, nylon or bristle brushes.
Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes or wire wool pads as they can scratch the steel.
Do take care when handling sharp objects as they can scratch the surface of stainless
steel. Any scratches on stainless steel will blend together over a period of time and

4
become less noticeable with age. There is no detriment to the corrosion resistance or
general performance of the material.
Do not use bleach for cleaning purposes (remember dishwasher powders, sterilising
agents and similar products all contain chlorides). If used, black pit marks, large brown
patches or other such effects may appear and permanent damage may be caused. If
used inadvertently rinse immediately with clean water.
Do not splash the unit with bleach when cleaning around the counter. If you do, rinse the
surface immediately with clean water thoroughly.
Do not allow corrosive foodstuffs such as fruit juices, vinegar, mustards, pickles,
mayonnaise, etc., to remain on stainless steel for long periods. Wash and rinse away.
Do not leave steel objects or utensils standing on the stainless steel surfaces for long
periods. They can rust and leave marks.
After cleaning with detergent always remove residues with a wet cloth and wipe dry, if
left they can have an etching effect on the surface.
CORRECTLY APPLIED THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS WILL RESULT IN CONTINUOUS GOOD
LOOKS!
