Guide to the controls
The warming drawer is operated by the Timer
timer, the temperature selector and the
humidity control.
The timer activates the heating
elements and circulation fan. To warm
food the timer must be turned to an
appropriate time setting. A time setting
of 1 - 4 hours or "Continuous" can be
selected.
The controls are only visible when the
drawer is open.
Once the warming drawer begins to
heat the circulation fan will turn on to
evenly heat the drawer. When the
selected temperature is reached, the
heat and the fan will shut off to prevent
food from drying out.
If the temperature drops below the
selected temperature, the heat will turn
back on.
– The warming drawer is turned off at
the "0" setting.
– The "Continuous" setting will warm
the drawer until the timer control is
turned to "0". This setting is ideal for
observing the Sabbath.
Please note, The "Continuous" set-
ting requires close supervision to
prevent fires. Forgotten food will dry
out and could ignite.
8
Guide to the controls
Humidity control
– "Moist": This position closes the vents
and seals the moisture in the drawer
to keep food moist and soft.
The humidity control adjusts the humid-
ity within the drawer. The humidity
control can be set anywhere between
"Moist" and "Dry".
Condensation may occur around the
inside edge of the drawer.
– "Dry": This position opens the vents
for maximum airflow to keep food
crisp.
Use oven mitts when adjusting the
humidity control. The control may
become hot during use.
"Dry" is ideal for keeping both dry
and liquid foods warm, e.g. soup
and bread. Cover liquids with a plate
or foil to prevent evaporation.
In this setting moisture may collect
on surfaces above the warming
drawer.
– "Center": This position is between
"Moist" and "Dry" and partially opens
the vents to keep food warm and
slightly moist, e.g. pizza.

Tips
Please note: Be careful not to place
food too close to the upper heating
element. Increased temperature and
proximity may cause a fire!
– To keep different foods hot, set the
temperature for the food requiring
the highest temperature setting.
Place the food needing the highest
setting on the rack and the other
food on the floor of the drawer.
– For large quantities of food, it may be
necessary to use a higher temp-
erature and humidity level.
– When warming food and dishes at
the same time, place the dishes on
the floor of the drawer and the food
on the rack.
– Food in heat resistant glass and
ceramic containers may require
higher temperatures than food in
metal dishes.
– Allow extra time for the temperature
to adjust after adding or checking on
food or dishes.
– Do not block the vents on the inside
of the drawer. This will prevent food
and dishes from warming evenly.
13
