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 the MOIST setting, closing
the vents. Closing the vents will seal the drawer and keep hot
foods soft and moist.
To keep foods crisp, slide control to the DRY setting, 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.

WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or
after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
The warming drawer is ideal for keeping hot cooked foods at
serving temperature. It is designed to operate properly 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 an 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:
1. Push in and turn the control knob to the desired food
warming setting: Lo (low), between Lo and Med (medium
low), Med (medium), between Med and Hi (medium high), or
Hi (high).

NOTE: For best results, meats, seafood, poultry and any
foods containing meat, seafood or poultry must be set to
medium or higher.
2. Select MOIST or DRY setting.
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
Different foods require different settings in order to maintain the
ideal serving temperature. Use the following chart as a guide.
You can set the drawer temperature anywhere between Lo and
Hi. For best results, meats, seafood and poultry must be set to
medium or higher. Cover food, if desired, to maintain heat and
moisture.
When keeping several different types of food hot, set the drawer
to the food requiring the highest temperature setting. Place
item(s) requiring the highest temperature on the bottom of the
drawer and those items requiring the lowest temperature on the
rack.
