Temperature Selection Chart
To keep several different foods hot, set
the temperature to the food needing the
highest setting. Place the items needing the
highest setting on the bottom of the drawer
and items needing less heat on the rack.
■
The temperature, type and amount of
food, and the time held will affect the
quality of the food.
■
Food in heat-safe glass and glass-ceramic
utensils may need a higher thermostat
setting as compared to food in metal
utensils.
■
Repeated opening of the drawer allows
the hot air to escape and the food to cool.
■
Allow extra time for the temperature
inside the drawer to stabilize after
adding items.
■
With large loads it may be necessary to
use a higher thermostat setting and cover
some of the cooked food items.
■
Do not use plastic containers or plastic
wrap.
CAUTION:
Do not keep food in the warming drawer
for more than two hours.
