Temperature Selection Chart
To keep several different foods hot, set
the control to the food needing the highest
setting.
■
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 control
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 warming drawer 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.
