Operating Instructions

The HOTLOGIC Mini utilizes low-slow conduction heating to gently warm your food. This method prevents overcooking or drying out your meals, ensuring they are heated to the ideal serving temperature and held there for hours.

• Heating Process: Once plugged in, the unit will begin to heat. There are no buttons or settings to adjust.
• Heating Time: For best results, plug in your HOTLOGIC Mini at least 40 minutes before you plan to eat. Heating times may vary based on the type and quantity of food, and its initial temperature (refrigerated vs. frozen). Frozen meals may require 1-2 hours or more.
• Holding Temperature: The device is designed to hold food at a safe, warm temperature for extended periods without burning. You can leave it plugged in for several hours.
• Compatible Containers: The heating element works effectively with most flat-bottom, sealable containers made of glass, plastic, Tupperware, metal, aluminum foil, and cardboard.

• Storage: Store the unit in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure the power cord is neatly wrapped and not kinked.
