FUNCTION AND PURPOSE

This equipment is intended and designed to keep food at proper serving temperatures. This equipment is not intended or designed to cook raw food or to reheat prepared food. Food must be prepared and placed in the chafer at proper serving temperatures. WARNING CAUTION

46440552 Induction Chafers and Stands Operator’s Manual OPERATION This equipment is designed to heat with an induction warmer, electric chafer heater or chafer fuel designed specifically for chafer application. If using an induction warmer or electric chafer heater, we recommend using a Vollrath brand product. If using fuel, use only a high-quality chafer gel fuel. Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for safety and use. Set-up the Chafer If your chafer has a rear support leg, turn the leg to extend it to support the cover. Extend the leg until it is flush with the surface on which the chafer is sitting. NOTICE: Failure to stabilize the chafer could cause the chafer to tip. Preheat the water

1. Remove the food pan from the water pan/base.

2. Add HOT water to the water pan. HOT water will reduce warm up

time otherwise water will need to be heated up to create steam into the water pan/base.

3. Light or turn on the heat source. Follow the manufacturer’s

instructions for safety and operation for the induction heater, electric chafer heater or chafer fuel.

5. Preheat the water based on the heat source:

Induction heater: Follow the directions in Operator’s Manual for the induction heater

Universal electric chafer heater: Set on “HI” until steam rises from the water

Chafer fuel: 30 minutes or until steam rises from the water. Keep Hot Food Warm

2. Place the food pan containing food product that is already at proper

serving temperatures (140 °F (60 °C)) into the water pan/base.

NOTICE: Monitor food temperature closely for food safety. The United States Public Health Service recommends that hot food be held at a minimum of 140 ºF (60 ºC) to help prevent bacteria growth.

4. Regularly check the food temperature. If necessary, adjust the

induction warmer or electric chafer heater between “HI” and “LO” or reduce the flame on chafer fuel source to maintain correct food temperature.

5. Make sure the water pan continues to generate steam. Note, adding

additional water to the water pan during use will require time to heat up enough to generate steam.

6. When finished using the equipment, turn off the induction warmer

or turn the electric chafer heater to the “OFF” position, and unplug or extinguish the flame on the chafer fuel source.

7. Remove the food pan. When removing hot food containers from

unit use gloves, mitts or pot holders to protect hands.

8. Allow ample time for the water to cool before removing the water

pan/base. Dispose the water. CAUTION Burn Hazard Do not touch heating surfaces, liquid, or while unit is heating or operating. Hot food, surfaces, steam and liquids can burn skin. Use gloves, mitts or pot holders if it is necessary to handle hot pans, plates and equipment. WARNING Fire Hazard Use only chafer fuel designed for chafer use. Do not install chafer fuel near combustible material. Fire could occur. WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard Keep water and other liquids from entering the inside of the heater. Liquid inside the heater could cause an electrical shock. Do not use damaged power cord. Chafer Item No. Water Qt. (L) 46120, 46121, 46122, 46123, 46124, 46125
