Each drawer can be controlled and monitored individually using
the adjustable drawer vents for humidity control as well as the
POWER ON/OFF (I/O) switch, TEMPERATURE control knob,
and a temperature monitor.

INFORMATION section before operating this equipment.
Startup
1. For freestanding units, plug the unit into a properly grounded
electrical receptacle of the correct voltage, size, and plug
configuration. See the SPECIFICATIONS section for details.

CAUTION
Standard and approved manufacturing oils may smoke up
to 30 minutes during initial startup. This is a temporary
condition. Operate unit without food product until smoke
dissipates.
BURN HAZARD:
• Some exterior surfaces on unit will get hot. Use caution
when touching these areas.
• Use caution when opening drawer. Hot air escapes
when drawer is open.

5. Adjust the drawer vents for the desired humidity by sliding
the vent knob on the drawer front. Opening the vents all
the way allows maximum moisture to escape.
