Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

1. Decide what food product needs to be displayed in your food warmer display case. Pizza, hot dogs or full buffets all have different needs.
2. Add a hot buffet with a steam table. These come in different sizes. You can also add more than one if you need more food slots.
3. Put water in the bottom of the floor size steamer by filling it with a hose run from your water source. There will be a fill mark inside. Do not overfill or under fill.
4. Turn on the heat control to the desired temperature. This will be a knob with temperatures on it that looks like a regular oven control. There may be more than one control on a larger size unit so you can section the steamer off and only use the portion needed.
5. Take care to never turn the heating element on without adding water first or you will burn your unit out. You may also risk fire so check to make sure there is water in the steamer.
6. Use a counter top food warmer display case for foods such as pizza or hot dogs. These have a oven knob to turn on and regulate heat but most do not require you to add water. Check your model manual to be sure.
