Operating Instructions

WARNING

• When the warming drawer is on in continuous mode

( ∞ ), it will remain on until turned off manually. To avoid a fire hazard or burns, exercise caution when operating the unit in continuous mode.

• Do not block the humidity vents on the back of the drawer front and along the left and right sides of the drawer. Excessive heat buildup can occur.

• Food safety is an important consideration when using a warming drawer. In the PROOF and LOW temperature settings, bacteria growth may occur.

Use the MED and HIGH settings if holding certain foods for more than two to three hours.

Things to Know Before You Start

Preheating

• For best results, preheat your warming drawer for about 20 minutes before use. If you put hot food into a cool, confined area, any steam that is present will condense. If you preheat your warming drawer, there will be less chance of water due to condensation.

Preheat times vary depending on the temperature setting.

Humidity Control

• The warming drawer has two distinct humidity modes.

The “ MOIST ” setting seals the food’s moisture in the warming chamber, maintaining the water content of the food. The “ CRISP ” setting allows the moisture to vent out of the sides of the warming drawer, retaining the crispness of other food types. The MOIST •

CRISP lever opens and closes vents located on the inside of the drawer front.

• Do not block the humidity vents any time you operate your warming drawer.

Operation

The warming drawer is equipped with four temperature settings and a timer that can be set for one, two, three or four hours. The warming drawer can also be set for continuous operation. See the table on the facing page for suggested settings for different foods.

To turn the unit on:

1. Select the humidity level. Slide the lever located on the back of the drawer face to the desired position.

To increase humidity inside the drawer, slide the lever closer to the MOIST symbol. To decrease humidity inside the drawer, slide the lever closer to the CRISP symbol. The lever can also be positioned anywhere between the MOIST and CRISP settings.

2. Push the ON/OFF key.

3. Push the key for the desired temperature setting.

Care and Cleaning

CAUTION

• To prevent permanent damage to the appliance surfaces, do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers.

• Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to remain on the warming drawer’s surfaces.

The finish may stain.

• Do not try to remove heavy spills with a sharp object such as a knife or metal spatula. Sharp objects may scratch the surfaces.

• Always wipe stainless steel surfaces in the direction of the grain.

Control Panel

Clean the control panel with a soft cloth soaked with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Exercise caution to avoid introduction of liquids into the area behind the control panel. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers. They may permanently damage the finish or scrap off the letters and graphics.

Moist • Crisp Control

Clean the Moist • Crisp lever with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

Drawer Handle

Clean the drawer handle with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

You may also use Dacor Stainless Steel Cleaner. It is available from your Dacor dealer. Use it according to the directions on the package.

Always wipe stainless steel surfaces in the direction of the grain.

Glass Surfaces

Clean all glass surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. You may also use a mild glass cleaner to remove fingerprints or smears. Dry completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Brass and Chrome Surfaces

Clean brass and chrome surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse, dry and polish with a soft, lint-free cloth.

You may also use Dacor Stainless Steel Cleaner. It is available from your Dacor dealer. Use it according to the directions on the package.

Painted Surfaces

For the front face of warming drawers with a painted finish, clean with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers. They may permanently damage the finish.

Gasket

The gasket is located around the edge of the drawer opening, below the control panel.

Gently clean the gasket with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. The gasket material is soft, so be careful not to crush or damage it. Damaging the gasket will cause a poor heat seal and result in poor warming drawer performance.

Drawer Slides

The warming drawer has slides positioned on each side of the drawer. They allow the drawer to slide in and out smoothly. Remove the drawer from the slides to make cleaning easy or to access the serial number plate. The drawer slides themselves do not require maintenance.

Removing the Drawer

Allow the drawer to cool before attempting to remove it.

1. Pull the drawer out to the fully open position.

2. Push in on the locking tab on one side as you pull the drawer up. See the facing page.
