SIMPLE AND DELUXE CABINETS
With the addition of a pan of water, warming cabinets can be used for proofing dough. A water reservoir
pan (#1775) and pan cover (#1774) is available as an option from Alto-Shaam.
1. Remove dough from retarder or refrigerator and allow covered product to set up at room temperature.
2. Set holding thermostat temperature to 95°F (35°C).
3. Pour approximately 2 quarts (c. 2 liters) of hot water into the optional water reservoir pan and place the
pan on the bottom surface of the compartment. The temperature of the water should be 140° to 180°F
(60° to 82°C).
4. Allow the cabinet to preheat for 45 to 60 minutes.
5. Remove covering and place dough in preheated cabinet.
6. Allow dough to remain in the cabinet until it nearly doubles in size.
7. Remove product from cabinet and bake according to product manufacturer’s directions. Brush with
eggwash if desired.
NOTE: The above proofing procedure is a suggested guideline only. Due to variation from product
to product, including quality and product weight, close adherence the product manufacturer’s
instructions is strongly recommended.

DELUXE CONTROL OPERATION
OPERATION
1. Preheat at 200°F (93°C) for 30 minutes.
Press the ON key, and set the temperature to
200°F (93°) by using the UP/DOWN arrow keys.
Allow a minimum of 30 minutes preheating
time before loading the holding cabinet with
food. Closing the vents on the inside of the
door will speed the preheating process. The
LED heat indicator light will go “Out” after
approximately 30 minutes preheat time, or when
the air temperature inside the unit reaches the
temperature set by the operator. The Set indicator
will light up anytime the temperature is set
or reset.
2. Load with hot food only.
The purpose of the holding cabinet is to maintain
hot food at proper serving temperature. Only
hot food should be placed into the cabinet.
Before loading the cabinet with food, use a food
thermometer to make certain all products are at
an internal temperature range of 140° to 160°F
(60° to 71°C). Any food product not within the
proper temperature range should be heated
before loading into the holding cabinet.
3. Reset the control to 160°F (71°C).
Check to make certain the cabinet door is
securely closed, and reset to 160°F (71°C) by
using the UP/DOWN keys
THIS WILL NOT NECESSARILY
BE THE FINAL SETTING.
The proper temperature range and open or closed
door vent position will depend on the type and
quantity of product. When holding food for
prolonged periods, it is advisable to periodically
check the internal temperature of each item with
a food thermometer to assure maintenance of the
proper temperature range of 140° to 160°F
(60° to 71°C).
SureTemp Heat Recovery
The patented SureTemp™ heat recovery system in
this unit will immediately compensate for any loss of
heat when the door is opened. In order to maintain
a more consistent cavity temperature, the control
will automatically apply heat to the unit’s interior
while the door is open and for a short time after the
door is closed. If the door remains open for more
than three minutes, the control will sound three
rapid beeps every ten seconds until the door
is closed.
