Operation
Your warming drawer works in two ways:
1. Seals moisture within the drawer to keep food moist.
2. Allows moisture to escape and keep food crisp.
The purpose of the warming drawer is to keep hot, cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food; cold food cannot
be heated in the warming drawer.
Warming Element
Turn the control knob clockwise to the desired setting. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the desired heat setting. When
finished turn the control to “OFF.”
Note: The majority of foods are held at a medium setting to maintain a serving temperature.
To use Dry Heat Function
1. Place the food or cookware with food in the empty drawer pan.
2. Turn the control knob to the desired heat setting and close the drawer.
Use dry heat when warming dishes and keeping foods crispy such as pies, breads and fried foods.
Drawer Indicator Light
The drawer indicator light is located on the front panel of the drawer. The drawer indicator light will glow red when the drawer element
is heated. The light will cycle on and off as the temperature is maintained.
Optional Accessories for Moist or Dry Heat
Pans/Lids - This warming drawer is designed to accommodate standard size
pan inserts. The optional pan/lid set consists of:
1) one 4” D. x 12” L. x 10½” W. pan/lid
2) two 4” D. x 12” L. x 7” W. pans/lids
3) two 2½” D. x 12” L. x 7” W. pans/lids
Temperature Control Settings
The knob is used to select the temperature of the drawer and is located on the right side of the control panel. The
“1” setting represents low, “2” represents medium, and “3” represents high. The majority of foods are held at a
medium setting to maintain a serving temperature. However, your own preference may be for hotter foods.
To keep several types of food hot for serving, key the temperature setting for the meat. For example, to hold rare
roast beef, select a lower setting, cover the other foods that otherwise would be kept at a higher setting.
Repeated opening of the drawer allows the hot air to escape and the food to cool. The drawer should not be opened unless adding or
removing food.
Proofing
Yeast dough can be proofed in the warming drawer. Place the dough in a bowl. Place the bowl on the low rack in the drawer. Turn the
temperature control to the lowest setting to facilitate the fermentation time. A towel should be placed over the dough to minimize
surface drying. The dough should remain in the warming drawer until it has doubled in size and a slight depression remains when the
surface is touched gently with a finger.
Warming Plates
To warm serving bowls and plates, place temperature control on a low setting. Place the empty dishes on the low rack to raise them
off the bottom of the drawer. If you want hotter dishes or want to heat fine china, please check with the manufacturer of the dishes
for their maximum heat tolerance.
