INSTALLATION / OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Top Mount Food Warmers
(after August 2011)
Models #TM1220FW-120 / -120T / -120-D / -120T-D
This food warmer will work most efficiently when used with water in the pan liner. The hot water will give a better distribution of heat
and help keep food from drying out. It is not designed for cooking foods but merely to keep hot foods at desired temperatures for
serving.
During initial operation, a little smoke or odor may be detected. This will occur when the coating on the heating element
burns off. This should stop after 1/2 hour of operation.
This warmer is equipped with a variable control for different heat selections.
Suffix “-120” may be replaced with suffix “-208” for 208-volt models or suffix “-240” for 240-volt models.
Suffix “T” indicates thermostatic control.
Suffix “-D” indicates unit with drain.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WET OPERATION WITH COVER
1) Fill bottom well with minimum of 190°F hot water so that water touches the bottom of the food pan.
2) Set dial to highest position for 45 minutes with well covered. Note: the indicator light is the set point for the control knob.
To preheat unit, place precooked food (minimum 160°F) in food pans and place in well. Cover food pans with lids.
3) Adjust to desired setting for proper food temperature. This will vary with the type of food, type of pans and individual serving
temperature. NSF requires a minimum temperature of 150°F in food product.
4) To increase temperature, turn knob toward highest setting. To decrease, turn knob toward lowest setting. In some cases it will be
necessary to position the knob between the lowest setting and off to achieve a lower temperature.
5) Change water, clean liner and wipe dry after every 24 hours of operation. Water may have to be added to pan during operation,
depending on operating time and temperature setting.
6) When food is not being served, food pans should be covered to maintain temperature and to prevent food from drying out.
The above instructions are starting suggestions only and may be changed to suit your individual needs. With so many different
applications for this item, it is impossible to have standard settings to suit all.
