Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Setup & Pre-Heating: Position the food warmer on a flat, level, heat-resistant workbench. Plug into a dedicated 240V 10A wall outlet. Turn on the shelf power switches and adjust individual thermostat dials to your required holding temperatures (30°C–90°C). Allow the shelves to pre-heat for 15 to 20 minutes before loading pre-heated, wrapped food.

2. Arranging Divider Rods: Adjust the divider rods along the shelf tracks to match the width of your wrapped products (e.g., burgers, rolls, or pies), creating organized lanes for gravity-fed display.

3. Daily Cleaning & Maintenance: Turn off all switches, unplug from power, and allow the unit to cool completely. Wipe down stainless steel shelves, divider rods, and exterior black panels with a warm damp cloth and a mild food-safe sanitiser. Clean tempered glass side panels with a non-abrasive microfibre glass towel.
