USING THE WARMING DRAWER
OPENING THE SOFT CLOSING DRAWER
To open the drawer grasp the handle and pull the drawer.
CLOSING THE DRAWER
To close the drawer, gently push the drawer back, until the soft closing
system engage.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Before using the appliance for the first time:
- Make sure that all packaging materials have been removed from the unit.
- Gently clean it with a moist cloth and dry it completely as described under “Cleaning and Maintenance”.
- Set the control knob to MAX, and let the warming drawer warm for at least two hours. Be sure that the kitchen is kept well ventilated during the heating period.
- The metal parts have been specially treated with a protective coating that can sometimes cause odors the first time the drawer is heated. These odors will quickly dissipate and should not be considered a defect of the appliance.
HEATING SYSTEM
The appliance is equipped with a hot air ventilating system. A fan distributes
heat in the warming drawer to obtain a uniform temperature.
- The thermostat allows the user to control and set the appliance at the desired temperature.
- The circulation of the air heats the drawer in a rapid and uniform way.
- With the protective measures in place, it is not possible to accidentally touch the heating element or the fan.
CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
- A single knob (Mode Selector) controls the warming drawer.
- It has positions for OFF, Proofing, and Defrost, plus a continuous range from WARM to MAX.
- This manual will use MED to designate a setting halfway between WARM and MAX.
- The interior lights come on when the drawer is opened.
- The panel indicator light comes on when the knob is in warming mode. (From WARM to MAX.)
OPERATION
Open the drawer. Turn the knob to set the desired function or temperature.
To turn off the appliance, turn the knob to the OFF position.
HEATING TIME
The warming time is influenced by:
- Amount of dishes or food in the drawer
- The arrangement of items in the drawer
- The temperate set.
In general, the more dishes or items in the drawer and the higher the set temperature, the longer it will take to reach the set temperature.
DISH WARMING
- Dishes for 6 persons, set temperature to MIN or greater.
- Warming time 30-35 minutes
With experience you will learn the optimal temperature setting for your needs.
DEFROSTING
The defrost function only uses forced ventilation without any active heating
element.
PROCEDURE
- Place items to defrost, turn the knob to the defrost setting.
PROOFING
The proofing function maintains the drawer temperature between 77 and 95° F [25-35° C].
PROCEDURE
- Preheat the drawer for 5 minutes by turning the knob to proofing.
- Place the dough, wrapped in a slightly damp cloth, in the middle of the drawer.
FOOD WARMING
Food recommended for warming: meat, chicken, fish, sauces, vegetables, side
dishes and soups.
- To avoid spills, do not overfill the dishes.
- Arrange the dishes in the drawer and close it carefully so that any liquids do not spill.
- It is advisable not to warm food for more than an hour to prevent it from losing nutritional value.
- If food will be held for more than one hour, it must be held at 140° F [60° C] or above. (MED)
Cover moist food and liquids with a lid or heat-resistant cling film. This will prevent the moisture from escaping, condensation from forming, and moisture settling on the outside of the dishes. Do not cover roast or fried dishes which need to stay crisp. Keep these dishes hot at high temperatures.
PROCEDURE
- Place the dishes in the drawer to preheat.
- Turn the thermostat knob to desired setting and allow the drawer and dishes to warm for 10 minutes.
- Put the food in the preheated dishes.
- Close the drawer again.
SWITCHING OFF
Turn the knob to OFF. Take the dishes out of the drawer using a cloth or oven
gloves.
SLOW COOKING
Slow cooking is ideal for cooking tender meat which needs to be medium rare or
rare. This cooking method means the meat will always be pink inside. This does
not, however, mean that the meat is raw or undercooked.
- This cooking method not only keeps the juices inside, but it also makes it easy to keep the meat hot.
- Suitable dishes to use: glass, porcelain or ceramic with a lid.
PROCEDURE
- Preheat the warming drawer with the chosen dish to the maximum temperature for 15 minutes.
- Heat some butter or oil in a pan. Brown the meat well for the time indicated in the table, then place it immediately in the preheated pan and cover with the lid.
- Set the thermostat between MED/MAX (140/195° F ) [60/90° C] for the time required to finish the cooking.
TIPS FOR SLOW COOKING
- Only use fresh meat in perfect condition.
- Trim off any excess fat.
- The pieces of meat do not necessarily have to be turned.
- Once cooked, the meat can be carved immediately; it does not have to rest.
- Meat that is slow cooked is not as hot as meat cooked in the traditional way, so it is advisable to put the plates in the warming drawer on the left-hand side for the last 20-30 minutes as well.
- Serve the meat with piping hot sauces.
- If you want to keep the meat hot after cooking, turn the knob to between WARM and MED (105-140° F [40-60° C]). Smaller pieces of meat can be kept hot for 45 minutes and larger pieces for two hours.
APPLICATIONS
Slow cooking is suitable for all tender cuts of beef, pork, veal, lamb, game
and poultry. The initial browning times and the subsequent cooking times
depend on the size of the slices of meat.
The browning time is for meat placed in a preheated pan with butter or oil.
DISH EXAMPLE | INITIAL BROWNING | LEVEL |
---|
Small slices of meat
Strips| about 1 – 2 minutes| MED
Small steaks or medallions| about 1 – 2 minutes per side| MED
Medium size slices of meat
Tenderloin| about 4 – 5 minutes per side| MAX
Lean roast| about 10 – 15 minutes per side| MAX
Large slices of meat
Tenderloin (from 2 Lb [900g])| about 6 – 8 minutes per side| MAX
Roast beef| about 8 – 10 minutes per side| MAX
Vegetables| about 30 minutes per side| MED
COOKING TIMES:
As a guideline, allow 4 to 5 hours for MAX and 8 to 10 hours for MED. Smaller
quantities of food may require less time, while larger quantities may require
more time.

CLEANING
The only recommended maintenance for the Warming Drawer is cleaning.
WARNING:
Before you begin cleaning, turn the appliance OFF and disconnect the
appliance from the outlet or shut off the breaker. Allow the appliance to cool
before cleaning it.
NOTICE:
- Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive products and/or scrubbing pads and sponges and sharp objects as they can stain and damage the appearance of the appliance.
- Never use a vacuum cleaner on the internal parts of the appliance.
FRONT SURFACE AND CONTROL PANEL
- The use of a moist cloth is often sufficient when cleaning the appliance. If needed, add a few drops of detergent in the water. Dry the appliance with a dry cloth. The stainless steel front of the appliance can be cleaned with products specifically designed for stainless steel.
- Such products prevent the formation of dirt on the surface of the drawer. Apply a minimal amount of the product on a soft cloth and apply it to the surface of the appliance.
- If your Hestan appliance has colored panels, use warm soapy water ONLY. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
INSIDE SPACE
To clean the inside space use a moist cloth. In the event the appliance
requires further cleaning add drops of detergent to the water. Dry the surface
with a dry cloth. Make sure to avoid water draining into the ventilation
holes. Only use the appliance after the drawer is completely dry.
REPLACING A WARMING DRAWER LIGHT BULB
The Warming Drawer is equipped with two halogen lights, located on the right
side of the unit.
WARNING:
- ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD – Make sure the power has been shut off to the Warming Drawer. The light socket is energized when the drawer is open. Failure to shut off the power when replacing a light bulb could result in electric shock or burns.
- Make sure the glass lens is cool to the touch. Use care when handling the lens, it is fragile and can break if dropped.
- Use only 20 watt, 12 Volt, halogen “Bi-Pin” bulbs suitable for appliance use. This type of bulb may be available at hardware stores & home centers, or specialty lighting stores. Call Hestan Customer Care for more information.
TO REPLACE A LIGHT BULB
- MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF! Unplug the unit or turn off power at the breaker.
- You may wish to remove the drawer before changing the bulb.
- Remove the lens retaining screw. Use a small flat-blade screwdriver to carefully pry off the glass lens and set aside. Reach into the lamp housing and pull out the old light bulb as shown in the image below.
- Before installation, it is very important to clean the new bulb carefully with a clean, soft cloth or tissue paper. Grease, fingerprints, or oils in your skin can leave a residue on the glass surface of the bulb which will create a hot-spot. The bulb will eventually crack at this hot-spot.
- While still using a cloth or tissue paper, insert the new bulb in the lamp housing. Push the bulb fully into the socket.
- Re-install the glass lens taking note of the cutaway in the glass which aligns with the bulb socket.
- Restore the power and check if the new bulb is working.
- If the drawer was removed, re-install it.
TROUBLESHOOTING
