WARNING Food Poisoning HazardDo not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.5 Moist-Dry Slide Control The Moist-Dry slide control allows you to open or close the vent slots in the door. The MOIST setting holds moisture in, while the DRY setting allows steam and moisture to escape from the drawer. NOTE: Condensation may form on inner surfaces. This is normal. To keep foods moist, slide control to MOIST, closing the vents. Closing the vents will seal the drawer and keep hot foods soft and moist. To keep foods crisp, slide control to DRY, opening the vents. Opening the vents releases moisture from the drawer and keeps hot foods crisp and dry. See the Warming Drawer Temperature Chart in the “Setting the Controls” section. Setting the Controls The Indoor/Outdoor Warming Drawer is ideal for keeping hot cooked foods at serving temperature. It is designed to operate properly either indoors or outdoors at temperatures down to 32°F (0°C). If the drawer is operated at temperatures colder than 32°F (0°C), performance may be affected. Different types of food may be placed in the warming drawer at the same time. When keeping several types of food hot, use the setting for the highest temperature food in the warming drawer. Place foods requiring the highest temperature on the bottom of the drawer and those foods requiring the lowest temperature on the elevated rack. For best results, do not hold foods in the warming drawer longer than 1 hour. For smaller quantities or heat-sensitive foods, such as eggs, do not hold longer than 30 minutes. Food must be cooked and at serving temperature before being placed in the warming drawer. Cover foods with a lid. Breads, pastries, and fruit pies may be heated from room temperature on the HI setting. Remove food from plastic bags and place in oven-safe container. Oven-safe serving dishes and dinner plates can be heated while the warming drawer is preheating. NOTE: To conserve heat, place cookware and positioning rack in the warming drawer before preheating. To Use:

3. Allow warming drawer to preheat. Recommended minimum

preheating times are 5 minutes for Lo, 10 minutes for Med, and 20 minutes for Hi.

4. Push in and turn the control knob to OFF when finished.

WARMING DRAWER TEMPERATURE CHART

Guidelines for cooking times are 4 to 5 hours for Hi and 8 to 10 hours for Lo. Smaller quantities of food may require less time, while larger quantities may require more time.When slow cooking, use serving pans (available for purchase) or oven-safe cookware.
