CONTROLS
REVERSIBLE RACK
The warming drawer will keep hot, cooked foods
at serving temperature. Always start with hot
food. DO NOT use to heat cold food other than
proofing yeast dough, crisping crackers, chips,
and dry cereal, or warming dishes or plates.

Low position raises utensil about 1/ 2" from
drawer bottom. Example: Used when proof-
ing yeast dough or when a utensil cannot be
placed directly on a hot drawer.
Signal Light
Open the drawer. The thermostat dial is on the
right side of the front frame.
High position allows for double stacking
items.
Turn the knob clockwise (to the right). Align a
setting on the knob with the raised indicator.
SIGNAL LIGHT
The signal light is located below the thermostat
dial and turns "ON" when the dial is set. It stays on
until the dial is turned back to the "OFF" position.
This light is visible through the light viewer in the
drawer front panel, when the drawer is closed.
This is a reminder that the heat is on.

(Drawing shows plates stacked above two 9x13
casserole dishes)
MOISTURE SELECTOR
At the top edge of the drawer trim are the words
Moist and Dry.
•
•
Rack will fit from front to back.
With large loads, it may be necessary to use a
higher thermostat setting and cover some of
the cooked food items.
To keep foods moist, slide the knob inside the
drawer to the left. This closes the vents and seals
the moisture inside the drawer.
With the vent closed, the drawer is completely
sealed which keeps the hot food moist and soft. In
this setting condensation may occur around the
inside edge of the drawer.
•
When holding hot, cooked foods and warm-
ing empty serving dishes at the same time,
place the serving dishes on the high rack po-
sition and the food items on the bottom of the
drawer.
To keep foods crisp, slide the knob to the right.
This opens the vents and allows the moisture to
escape. With the vents open, it is normal for
moisture to collect on surfaces above the warming
drawer.
•
•
Food in heat-safe glass and glass ceramic uten-
sils may need higher thermostat settings as
compared to food held in metal utensils.
Allow extra time for the temperature inside
the drawer to stabilize, after adding items or
checking doneness.
