To Set the Temperature
Control
The Temperature Control is located on the inside right panel of the warmer
drawer. The temperature range is from 80 °F to 210 °F, and the temperature
settings are approximate from LO to Hi throughout the range. Set the control to
LO, MED, HI or anywhere in between.
1.
To set the temperature, push in and turn the control to the desired setting.
2.
For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty drawer will
reach the LO setting in about 12 minutes, the MED setting in about 15 min-
utes, and the HI setting in about 18 minutes.
3.
When done warming, turn the temperature control to OFR
Temperature
Selection
Refer to the chart in the side column for recommended
settings. If a particular
food is not listed, start with the medium setting. If more crispness is desired,
remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can be kept at serving
temperatures by using the medium setting. When a combination of foods are to
be kept warm (for instance, a meat with 2 vegetables
and rolls), use the high
setting.
Refrain from opening the warmer drawer while in use to eliminate loss of heat
from the drawer. Open only for adding or removing food.
To Warm Serving
Bowls
and Plates
Heat bowls and plates on the LO setting. Place empty dishes on the rack to raise
them off drawer bottom. To further heat dishes or to heat fine china, check with
the manufacturer for maximum heat tolerance.
Preparing
Bread Dough
for the Warmer
Drawer
The Warmer Drawer has a Bread Proof feature that can be used to help prepare
bread dough. The recommended length of time to keep bread dough in the Warmer
Drawer is about 45-60 minutes. Be sure however to followthe recipe's recommended
times.
The unrisen bread dough should be placed in a large bowl since the dough will
nearly double in volume. Place the Warmer Drawer Rack in the downward position.
Before placing in the Warmer Drawer, cover the bowl with a moist cloth or use wax
paper that has been coated with a non-stick type cooking spray.
NOTE : The bread proof function uses low warming temperature which may be
lower t ban your room temperature. The drawer will not work as a cooling device and
will not be able to lower the temperature of foods to less than room temperature.
