TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
1. All foods have different consistencies and may require a lower or higher
setting to keep the food warm. For example, a higher temperature setting
will be required to keep mashed potatoes warm and a lower temperature to
keep gravy warm.
2. All warm or hot foods should be maintained at a minimum of 140ºF to
prevent the risk of food borne illness.
3. Use a food thermometer to monitor the temperature of the food and adjust
the temperature control if needed to maintain a minimum of 140ºF.
4. It is recommended to periodically check the temperature when serving over
a long period of time.
5. Many factors can affect the temperature of food. This unit is designed to
reach a minimum temperature (see below) for each setting. Below are some
important tips to remember when using the buffet server.
Warming Tray - 150ºF
This setting is used when placing foods directly on the warming tray only.
NOTE: The Temperature ranges below are measured with the large
pan and / or buffet trays on the warming tray.
Low - 160ºF
This is the minimum setting when the large pan is used on the warming tray
Medium - 170ºF
This is the minimum setting when the large pan and buffet trays are used on
the warming tray.
High - 180ºF
This setting will be used to keep foods at a higher temperature when using
the large pan and / or buffet trays.
NOTE: When placing food directly on the warming tray only use the
Warming Tray Setting.
NOTE: The Low-Medium-High settings are for use with the large pan
and/ or buffet trays. The surface temperature of the warming tray will
be much hotter than the above temperature ranges in order to transfer
heat from the warming tray to the large pan and / or buffet trays.
NOTE: Silicone handles are oven safe up to 350 ºF.
NOTE: Extended use over long periods of time at high temperatures
may cause discoloration of the buffet trays and scorching may occur
on the warming tray.

USING THE WARMING TRAY with LARGE PAN & BUFFET TRAYS….
1. With the temperature setting in the “OFF” position, plug the appliance into a grounded
outlet.
2. Clean and dry all surfaces thoroughly before use. See Care & Cleaning Instructions in
this manual.
3. Set the temperature control to Medium. NOTE: It is important to remember when
using the buffet trays inside of the large pan the temperature control setting must
be on Medium in order to reach the minimum temperature of 140º.
4. The Buffet Server can keep food warm for a longer period of time if the lids are used. It is
not recommended to exceed 4 hours or food may begin to dry out.
5. Once you are through using the Warming Tray, turn the temperature setting to the “OFF”
position and unplug from the outlet.

HELPFUL TIPS .
1. The buffet trays and the large pan are oven safe. The lids are not oven safe.
2. When serving warm or hot foods you can warm the buffet trays in the oven prior to
putting food inside to help keep the temperatures higher during initial serving.
3. You can also use water inside of the large pan when using the buffet trays to distribute
the heat more evenly without creating hot spots in the buffet trays. This is especially
effective when serving sauces or creamy dishes.
CARE & CLEANING .

cleaning.
2. The unit should be completely cool before cleaning.
