COUNTERTOP FOODWARMERS
Section I
General Information
Toastmaster electric Food Warmers are designed in three categories; drop-in, built in or counter units. 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. Toast-
masters Food Warmers may be used as a single unit or banked with other built-in or counter equipment.
Toastmaster Food Warmers are made of the finest material available to provide durability and a safe and
trouble-free operation. However, care in operation and cleaning will provide a longer life for your equipment.
The exterior case of the counter type unit has stainless steel front and sides and aluminized steel on the back.
The top case and mounting flange of the drop-in units are made of welded and reinforced stainless steel and
the case sides are made of aluminized steel.
All Toastmaster Food Warmers meet the standards of the National Sanitation Foundation and are listed by
Underwriters Laboratories Inc.
Section II
Installation
A. Installing Counter Type Units
Care should be taken while uncrating your new Toastmaster Food Warmer to prevent damage and scratching
of the surfaces. First, open the carton by removing all fastening staples. Remove and discard the internal
packing material from the top of the unit. Lift the unit up and out of the carton. Locate any mounting brackets
or other loose items and set aside. You will find four 4” plastic legs with level adjusting feet. To install these
legs, turn the unit on its top or back and screw the legs into the four tapped holes in the bottom. Upright the
unit on your counter, locate the thermostat control knob on the front panel and set in the “OFF” position.
Your installer should be aware of your electrical power as all Toastmaster Food Warmers are provided in
different voltages. This voltage, either 120 . 208 or 240, should have been specified when ordering your
unit(s). All counter units are shipped with a factory installed 36” electrical cord and plug. All Food Warmers
are provided in a single phase only regardless of voltage.
Section III
Operation
A. Controls
Controls for Food Warmers vary for different models and the features or intended use of it. Afood warmer
doesn’t require extensive operator interface but the following information should be made available to them.
Some of the Food Warmers use a positive off position on the thermostat. This is used to turn the unit off when
not in use. When the unit is on the full range of temperatures described are available for operating.
Model 1527. Heat N’ Hold has a temperature range of 90 to 210 degrees with a positive “off” position.
Model 1529 has an operator control for on and off only. The unit will always operate at the same temperature.
This unit does use a low water alarm to alert the operator to add water.
All the other models of Food Warmers use an eight position control including a positive off position.

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 approxi-
mately 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.
D. 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. Check the water level daily. 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.
E. Operating Hints
Operating hints include the following. Using these hints will allow you to achieve the best performance
and most economical operation for your Food Warmer. When operating wet, always use hot or warm water
to speed up the preheat time. Do not use too much or too little water. Too little water will hinder the heat
transfer required to maintain the food temperature where too much water will tend to spill out over the top of
the food well. Keep the cover on the food insert pand and the entire food well as as much as possible to avoid
lost heat. Always set the controls to the off position when the unit is not preheating or in use.
Section IV
Always unplug or disconnect the power to the unit before cleaning.
A. Cleaning
(See separate section for cleaning 1527TH & 1527TH).
Food warmers should be cleaned frequently to remove scale and prevent build up. Vinegar and water or
a commercial de-scaling agent may be used. We recommend the food warmers be emptied daily and washed
with soapy water, rinse and wiped dry. Extreme care should be taken wile cleaning so that the electrical
components do not get wet. Never submerse the unit in water.
