The chart on page 4 will give the specific model you have as well as provide additional statistical information. All units consist of a stainless steel well or receptacle that is heated by a tubular heating element. They are designed to accomodate standard food inserts and are capable of storing one or more food products. [. . . ] All the other models of Food Warmers use an eight position control including a positive off position. PAGE2 Toastmaster ® COUNTERTOP FOODWARMERS B. Normal Operation (all modes except 1527H and 1527TH) Be sure the control knob is set in the "OFF" position, then energize the unit at the main disconnect. For wet applications fill the unit with approximately 1" of Hot water and turn the control knob disal to the high position for 25 to 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, set the control knob at the desired setting. Always keep insert pans in place or cover the unit to conserve heat and to prevent water evaporation. Most units should operate approximately 24 hours before the need to add water. You should maintain at least a 1/4" water level. Remember, never place food items directly in the receptacle without the use of the insert pan(s). For dry applications, merely set the insert vessel into the food warmer. Models 1527H & 1527TH "Heat N' Hold" As mentioned earlier these models only require approximately 18 minutes to heat the water and the food in the insert pan. This model is designed for the purpose of heating the food and then holding it at the serving temperature you desire. Fill the warming unit with about 2 1/3 quarts of water. Place food in the Heat N' Hold and turn control knob to high. The amber light cycles on and off with the heater. After approximately 18 minutes turn the control knob to a minimum of 150°F for holding. Always keep the heating element covered with water to insure proper heat transfer. "Dry" running of the unit will substantially lower the temperature in the insert pan. Do not overfill or the the water will boil and splash out over the side. Never place food products directly in the warmer well. Common uses of the "Heat N' Hold" units are soup, chili, hot chocolate or vegetables. Thicker foods, such as chili or hot chocolate will heat faster if stirred occasionally during the heating process. Operating Hints Operating hints include the following.
