(Fig. 3)
Power Indicator Light:
The Red Power Indicator Light indicates
power is supplied to the cabinet. The
red light will stay lit as long as the
cabinet is plugged in.
Heat Indicator Light:
The Amber Heat Indicator Light
indicates the heating element(s) are
heating. The amber light will stay lit as
long as the heating element(s) are
engaged. Once the predetermined
temperature is achieved, the heating
element(s) will begin to cycle. During
this period, the amber light will turn on
and off.
Fan On/Off Switch:
** Models manufactured after 2010
The Fan On/Off Switch turns the fan on
only. The use of the fan is optional.
Turn on fan if forced air holding is
desired.
Thermometer:
The Thermometer indicates the interior
temperature of the cabinet.
Thermostat:
The Thermostat turns power on to the
heating element(s). The thermostat
setting is from 1 to 10. The greater the
thermostat setting number, the higher
the temperature. (Fig. 4)
It is recommended that prior to
placing the cabinet in operation, that
it be preheated at the highest
temperature setting for a period of 30
to 45 minutes.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Cabinet and its parts
are hot. Be very careful when operating,
cleaning, or servicing the cabinet.
Once the cabinet has been connected to
the appropriate power source, the
cabinet is ready for operation. Begin by
turning the thermostat dial to the
number 5. This will cause the heating
element(s) to start heating. Once the
red light is lit, the thermostat dial can be
turned to the desired setting.
When cooking is completed, turn the
thermostat dial to the OFF position.
The operator should always monitor the food product to insure that it remains at
a proper temperature.
CLEANING
Always unplug
electrical power supply before
cleaning.
The Cabinet and its parts
are hot. Be very careful when operating,
cleaning, or servicing the cabinet.
DAILY:
1. Unplug electrical power supply.
2. Allow warmer to cool before
cleaning.
3. Clean the interior of the cabinet
with a mild soap and water.
Never use harsh chemicals or
abrasive pads to clean the cabinet.
4. Rinse and dry with a soft dry
cloth.
5. Clean the exterior of the cabinet
with a clean damp cloth.
HEAVY-DUTY CLEANING:
For heavy-duty cleaning, use warm
water, a degreaser, and a plastic,
stainless steel, or Scotch-Brite pad.
Never rub in a circular motion -- rub
gently in the direction of the steel grain.
Always rinse thoroughly.

H & T CABINETS F-41013 (03-11)

STAINLESS STEEL CARE
CLEANING:
Stainless Steel contains 70 – 80% iron,
which will rust if not properly maintained.
Stainless Steel also contains 12 – 30%
chromium, which forms an invisible
passive, protective film that shields
against corrosion.
If the protective film remains intact, the
stainless steel will remain intact.
However, if the film is damaged, the
stainless steel can break down and rust.
PREVENTIVE CARE:
To prevent stainless steel break-
down, follow these steps:
1. Never use any metal tools,
scrapers, files, wire brushes,
or scouring pads (except for
stainless steel scouring pads,)
which will mar the surface.
2. Never use steel wool – which
will leave behind particles that will
rust.
3. Never use acid-based or
chloride containing cleaning
solutions – which will break
down the protective film.
4. Never rub in a circular motion.
Always rub gently in the direction
of the steel grain.
5. Never leave any food products
or salt on the surface. Many
foods are acidic. Salt contains
chloride.
PRESERVING & RESTORING:
Special stainless steel polishing
cleaners can preserve and restore the
protective film.
Preserve the life of stainless steel with a
regular application of a high-quality
stainless steel polishing cleaner, as a
final step to daily cleaning.
If signs of breakdown appear, restore
the stainless steel surface. First,
thoroughly clean, rinse, and dry the
surface. Then, on a daily basis, apply a
high-quality stainless steel polish
according to manufacturer’s instructions.
HEAT TINT:
Darkened areas, called “heat tint,” may
appear on stainless steel exposed to
excessive heat. Excessive heat causes
the protective film to thicken. This is
unsightly, but is not a sign of permanent
damage.
To remove heat tint, follow the routine
cleaning procedure. Stubborn heat tint
will require heavy-duty cleaning.
To reduce heat tint, limit the exposure of
equipment to excessive heat.
MAINTENANCE
The Cabinet and its
parts are HOT. Be very careful when
operating, cleaning, or servicing the
cabinet.
Always unplug
electrical power supply before
servicing the cabinet.

H & T CABINETS F-41013 (03-11)

LOCKOUT / TAGOUT PROCEDURE
Always perform the LOCKOUT / TAGOUT
Procedure before removing any sheet metal panels or
attempting to service this equipment.
The Lockout / Tagout Procedure is used to protect personnel working on an electrical
appliance. Before performing any type of maintenance or service on an electrically
operated appliance, follow these steps:
1. In electrical box, place unit’s circuit breaker into OFF position.
2. Place a lock or other device on electrical box cover to prevent someone from
placing circuit breaker ON.
3. Place a tag on electrical box cover to indicate that unit has been disconnected for
service and power should not be restored until tag is removed by maintenance
personnel.
4. Disconnect unit power cord from electrical outlet.
5. Place a tag on cord to indicate that unit has been disconnected for service and
power should not be restored until tag is removed by maintenance personnel.
