Drip tray
When you are using perforated pans, place the drip tray on the lowest side runners to collect any dripping liquid and allow it to be removed easily. You can also use the drip tray as a cooking pan if necessary.
Water container
The maximum amount of water is approx. ½ gallon (2 liters), the minimum is approx. ½ pint ( 0.5 liters). These levels are indicated on the container. Never exceed the maximum level.
