A. WET OPERATION 
Make sure the drain valve is fully closed before turning thermostat ON. 
Add approximately 1” of hot tap water before turning the warmer  ON. 
Use of hot water will allow a faster preheat. 
  1.  For non-autofill units: check the water level frequently and 
    add hot water as necessary to prevent the tank from running 
    dry. Do not add water to the tank if it has run dry. 
  2.  If your Bain Marie runs dry, turn it OFF and allow to cool to 
    room temperature before adding water. 
B.  PRE-HEATING THE BAIN MARIE 
Make sure the drain valve is fully closed before filling tank. 
Turn temperature control to HI or highest temperature setting. 
Allow tank to preheat for approximately 30 minutes, then set the control 
for the desired temperature. 
C. OPERATION 
Check water level frequently during use. Autofill units should be 
checked periodically to verify proper operation of the autofill feature. 
Running warmers dry will lower the temperature of the food, and will 
damage the tank. 
  DO:  Always use pot or inset. 
 DO NOT place food directly into the tank. 
  DO: Always pour hot water into the warmer before it is preheated. 
 DO NOT pour water of any temperature into a dry, heated tank. 
  This will damage the unit. 
  DO NOT put ice into the tank. This will cause condensation on the 
  inside of the tank shrouds. Damage caused by condensation is 
  NOT covered by warranty. 
 DO:  Stir thick food items frequently to keep food heated uniformly. 
 DO:  Keep pots and insets covered to maintain food quality and 
 temperature. 
  DO NOT use metal implements, steel wool, or caustic or abrasive 
  cleansers to clean warmer pan. 
D. AUTOFILL WARMERS 
Autofill control the water level by a water level sensing probe placed in 
the side of the tank approximately 1" from the tank bottom. 
Water fills the tank through an inlet tube. 
The autofill function is active only when the thermostat is turned ON . 
Make sure the drain valve is fully closed before turning thermostat ON.
