FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS
Forced Convection Food Holding Cabinet
The Crisp n’ Hold provides a heated stream of air to maintain fried food temperature and freshness for
a specified period of time after cooking. Forced air is heated through an electric resistance heater and
ducted to a food grate. The heated air is discharged through small circular openings in the bottom of
the grate and through a slotted opening located front top to provide a warm blanket of air over the
food. Additionally, the grate has small round embossments to minimize hot metal contact with the
food.

Hold in an ambient air temperature of 70º F (21ºC).
Installation procedures must be
Avoid areas near exhaust fans where there is active air movement.
performed by a qualified technician
with full knowledge of all applicable
electrical codes.
For safe operation, locate the unit a reasonable distance from com-
bustible walls and materials.
To prevent injury and damage, locate the unit at a proper and safe
working height. The location should be level, clean of debris, and
strong enough to support the weight of a fully loaded unit.
Failure can result in personal injury
and property damage.
Countertop Mounting
To prevent electrical shock, be sure unit is unplugged from an elec-
trical outlet. If unit has been operated, allow unit to cool before in-
stalling.
IMPORTANT:
Power cord is 7' long.
If necessary, contact a licensed
electrician to install an appropriate
20 amp electrical circuit with correct
NEMA receptacle.
Counter must be made of a non-combustible material, clean and
free of debris. Locate and drill four mounting holes in counter top.

mounting holes previously occupied by legs. Seal the perimeter of
unit where it meets the counter top with a silicone sealant.
CAUTION:
Electrical Shock Hazard
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug which must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
The ground prong of the power cord
is part of a system designed to pro-
tect you from electric shock in the
event of internal damage.
DO NOT cut off the large round
ground prong or twist a blade to fit
an existing receptacle.
WARNING—Improper use of the grounding can result in
a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
