WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
It is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection:
A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC only 15 or 20 A electrical supply, properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your warming drawer, be provided.

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.
Push in and turn the control knob to turn on the warming drawer.
The blue power indicator light will turn on and remain on while the warming drawer is in operation.
When finished, turn the control knob to OFF to turn off the warming drawer. When the warming drawer is turned off, the blue power indicator light will go out, and the drawer will begin to cool.
The temperature is controlled by rotating the control knob to the desired setting. The temperature setting ranges from Low to High on the warming drawer control to keep heated foods warm at the selected temperatures.
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.
