read, and follow, the installation, operating, cleaning and
maintenance instructions below. Failure to follow them may
affect the warranty.
1. UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
All protective coating used on stainless steel surfaces of the hot
cupboard must be removed. The exposed surfaces can then be
wiped clean with a damp cloth, using a mild detergent or soap
if necessary.
Do not use any abrasive material or form of bleach for cleaning
purposes. Please see cleaning section of these instructions.
Static Models:
For stability static models must be located under a fixed bench.
Position the unit where it is to be used and ensure that it is
level. This is done by adjusting the feet, turning clockwise to
raise the unit and anticlockwise to lower the unit.
Mobile Models:
Mobile drawers are designed for easy transport to working
location and to pull out for cleaning. They are not designed to
move hot food!
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.

following code:
Green and Yellow (Earth) • Blue (Neutral)) • Brown (Live)
Warning: This appliance must be earthed, do not touch internal
wiring.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead on this appliance
may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying
the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
(a) The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be
connected to the terminal in the plug, which is marked with
letter E or the symbol .
(b) The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter Nor is coloured black.

3. USE AND BEST PERFORMANCE
The Heated Drawers are thermostatically controlled by a
thermostat, located on the control panel at the base of the unit.
To obtain the best performance, the following procedure is
suggested:
(a) Pre-heat the Heated Drawers empty for 30 minutes, with the
control knob turned on full.
(b) Load the containers, with lids, into the Heated Drawers as
required. Place containers, with lids, in any unused sections to
maintain even air flow within the Heated Drawer cabinet.
(c) A removable water tray is provided in the base of the unit,
this tray can be filled with water (Capacity 1Ltr / 1½ pints) from
time to time as required, in order to increase humidity inside
the drawers.
(d) Many factors will determine the best control knob position,
such as the amount and temperature of the food loaded, and
the frequency of the opening and shutting of the drawers.
Experience from using the Heated Drawers will soon show the
best setting for any given occasion. The Heated Drawers should
remain closed as much as possible during service to prevent
heat loss.
(e) Set the thermostat at the required temperature, No further
adjustment is necessary. The maximum temperature the Heated
Drawers will reach is around 110ºC.
Please remember: The Heated Drawers are not designed to heat
up or cook food, but are designed to maintain it at a satisfactory
temperature before serving.
