Operation
Temperature Control Settings
The knob is used to select the temperature of the
drawer and is located on the right side of the
control panel. The “1” setting represents low, “2”
represents medium, and “3” represents high. The
majority of foods are held at a medium setting to
maintain a serving temperature. However, your own
preference may be for hotter foods.
To keep several types of food hot for serving, key the temperature
setting for the meat. For example, to hold rare roast beef, select a
lower setting, cover the other foods that otherwise would be kept at a
higher setting.
Repeated opening of the drawer allows the hot air to escape and the
food to cool. The drawer should not be opened unless adding or
removing food.
Proofing
Yeast dough can be proofed in the warming drawer. Place the dough
in a bowl. Place the bowl on the low rack in the drawer. Fill the
moisture cup half full with water and place in the opening in the rear
center of the low rack. Turn the temperature control to the lowest
setting to facilitate the fermentation time. A towel should be placed
over the dough to minimize surface drying. The dough should remain
in the warming drawer until it has doubled in size and a slight
depression remains when the surface is touched gently with a finger.
Warming Plates
To warm serving bowls and plates, place temperature control on a low
setting. Place the empty dishes on the low rack to raise them off the
bottom of the drawer. If you want hotter dishes or want to heat fine
china, please check with the manufacturer of the dishes for their
maximum heat tolerance.
Power “ON” Light
The power “ON” light is located above the temperature control knob
on Custom models and below the temperature control knob on
Designer models. It turns on when the control knob is set and cycles
on and off with the heating element as temperature is maintained.
