Timer Override switch

The Timer Override switch allows you to run the unit past 4 
hours, until it is turned off manually with the Power switch. 
It is recommended that the switch be left in the OFF 
position, unless longer warming times are required. When 
the Override switch is in the ON position, the light on the 
switch will illuminate to notify that the Timer has been 
bypassed.

IMPORTANT: Although the Timer can be bypassed by 
using the Timer Override switch, never allow food items to 
remain in the Warming Drawer longer than one hour. 
Bacterial growth may occur.

Moist-Dry slide

.

The Moist-Dry slide allows you to open or close the vent 
slots in the door. The MOIST setting holds the moisture in. 
The DRY setting allows steam/moisture to escape from the 
drawer. 

To keep foods moist, put slide on MOIST, closing 
vents. Closing the vents seals the drawer, keeping hot 
food soft and moist.

NOTE: Condensation may form on inner surfaces.

To keep foods crisp, put slide on DRY, opening vents. 
With the vents open the moisture is released from the 
drawer, keeping hot food crisp.

Positioning Racks and Pans

Dual level rack

The rack accompanying your drawer can be used in two 
different positions, high and low.

Low position 
raises the utensil 

¹⁄₂

 inch from bottom of drawer.

High position 
lets you stack items in the drawer.

To stack items:

Rack will fit from front to back or side to side. 

NOTE: When placing front to back, drawer must be 
fully open.

It may be necessary to cover some foods and use a 
higher temperature setting with larger loads.

To warm both cooked foods and empty serving dishes 
at the same time, place the serving dishes on the 
drawer bottom during preheat and the food on the high 
rack position after preheat.

Foods contained in heat-safe glass or glass ceramic 
utensils may require a higher temperature setting than 
food contained in metal utensils.

Extra time should be allotted for the drawer 
temperature to stabilize, when adding items or 
checking food.

Pans

The pans provided can withstand oven temperatures 
and are approved for oven cooking.

If not cooking in pan, warm pans during preheat time. 
Food temperature will fall below recommended levels if 
pan is not warm.

Ensure pan support is properly installed in locator 
notch before inserting pans.

30" shown (27" not shown) 

1. Storage notch
2. Locator pan support

NOTE: 27" model comes with only 2 pans.

When not using pans, place locator pan support in 
storage notch.
