Warmer Drawer

Fig. 3

Important notes:

•

Do not use plastic wrap to cover food.

Plastic may melt

on the warmer drawer and be very di

ﬃ

cult to clean up.

Only use utensils and cookware recommended by the

manufacturer for use in the warmer drawer.

• Always start with hot food when using the warmer drawer.

DO NOT heat cold food

in the warmer drawer.

• To minimize heat loss, avoid opening warmer drawer

frequently while in use.

Warmer Drawer Settings

The recommended warmer drawer food settings are shown

in Fig. 3. The settings provided are meant to be used as a

recommendation only. If a particular food item is not listed,

start with a medium setting. If more crispness is desired,

remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food.

Most foods may be maintained at serving temperatures

using a medium heat setting. When a combination of foods

are to be kept warm (for example, a meat with 2 vegetables

and rolls) use a high setting.
