• D: Element ‘On’ symbol

The electronic controller for the cupboard has a range of 20 Deg C to 99 Deg C, and is factory set at 85 Deg C. On switching the unit on, the digital readout (B) displays the current temperature within the cupboard. Pressing the ‘Set’ button (A) once displays the temperature the cupboard is currently set to reach. To adjust this temperature, hold down the ‘Set’ button for 3 seconds and then set the required temperature by using the adjust buttons (C and D) on the controller. The digital readout then returns to show the current temperature.
Pre-heat the cupboard – the element symbol (E) is extinguished when the required temperature is reached.
Load the cupboard with heated food as required. The desired heat settings will be found with practice, and will depend on the amount and temperature of the food in the unit and the frequency of opening of the doors. Check food temperature regularly.

Do not disconnect the cupboard from the supply until it is ready to be moved to the distribution point. Re-connect as soon as the distribution point is reached.
Operation of gantries (selected models) is via the switch on the control panel (PG6 units) or the gantry overshelf (PS8 units).
To turn the unit off, switch off at the mains socket and ensure the green light has gone out. A small bowl of water placed on the bottom shelf once the appliance is stationary will help prevent food drying out.
