Guide to the controls
The warming drawer is operated by the
timer, the temperature selector, and the
humidity control.
The controls are only visible when the
drawer is open.
Once the warming drawer begins to
heat the circulation fan will turn on to
evenly heat the drawer. When the
selected temperature is reached, the
heat and the fan will shut off to prevent
food from drying ouL
if the temperature drops below the
selected temperature, the heat will turn
back on.
Timer
The timer activates the heating
elements and circulation fan. To warm
food the timer must be turned to an
appropriate time setting. A time setting
of 1 - 4 hours or "Continuous" can be
selected.

Humidity contro_
The humidity control adiusts the
humidity within the drawer. The humidity
control can be set anywhere between
"Moist" and "Dry".
- "Moist": This position closes the
vents and seals the moisture in the
drawer to keep food moist and soft.
Condensation may occur around the
inside edge of the drawer.
- "Dry": This position opens the vents
for maximum airflow to keep food
crisp.
This setting is ideal for keeping both
dry and liquid foods warm, e.g. soup
and bread. Cover liquids to prevent
evaporation. In this setting moisture
may collect on surfaces above the
warming drawer.
- "Center": This position is between
"Moist" and "Dry" and partially opens
the vents to keep food warm and
slightly moist, e.g. pizza.

Tips
- To keep different foods hot, set the
temperature for the food requiring
the highest temperature setting.
Place the food needing the highest
setting on the rack and the other
food on the floor of the drawer.
- For large quantities of food, it may be
necessary to use a higher temp-
erature and humidity level.
- When warming food and dishes at
the same time, place the dishes on
the floor of the drawer and the food
on the rack.
- Food in heat resistant glass and
ceramic containers may require
higher temperatures than food in
metal dishes.
- Allow extra time for the temperature
to adiust after adding or checking on
food or dishes.
- Do not block the vents on the inside
of the drawer, This will prevent food
and dishes from warming evenly.
Please note: Be careful not to place i
food too close to the upper heating ii
ii element. Increased temperature and
