KitchenAid 4452827 manual Positioning Racks and Pans, Timer Override switch, Moist-Dry slide

Timer Override switch

The Timer Override switch allows you to run the unit past 4 hours, until it is turned off manually with the Power switch. It is recommended that the switch be left in the OFF position, unless longer warming times are required. When the Override switch is in the ON position, the light on the switch will illuminate to notify that the Timer has been bypassed.

IMPORTANT: Although the Timer can be bypassed by using the Timer Override switch, never allow food items to remain in the Warming Drawer longer than one hour. Bacterial growth may occur.

Moist-Dry slide.

MOIST DRY

The Moist-Dry slide allows you to open or close the vent slots in the door. The MOIST setting holds the moisture in. The DRY setting allows steam/moisture to escape from the drawer.

■To keep foods moist, put slide on MOIST, closing vents. Closing the vents seals the drawer, keeping hot food soft and moist.

NOTE: Condensation may form on inner surfaces.

■To keep foods crisp, put slide on DRY, opening vents. With the vents open the moisture is released from the drawer, keeping hot food crisp.

Positioning Racks and Pans

Dual level rack

The rack accompanying your drawer can be used in two different positions, high and low.

Low position

raises the utensil ¹⁄₂ inch from bottom of drawer.

High position

lets you stack items in the drawer.

To stack items:

■Rack will fit from front to back or side to side.

NOTE: When placing front to back, drawer must be fully open.

■It may be necessary to cover some foods and use a higher temperature setting with larger loads.

■To warm both cooked foods and empty serving dishes at the same time, place the serving dishes on the drawer bottom during preheat and the food on the high rack position after preheat.

■Foods contained in heat-safe glass or glass ceramic utensils may require a higher temperature setting than food contained in metal utensils.

■Extra time should be allotted for the drawer temperature to stabilize, when adding items or checking food.

Pans

■The pans provided can withstand oven temperatures and are approved for oven cooking.

■If not cooking in pan, warm pans during preheat time. Food temperature will fall below recommended levels if pan is not warm.

■Ensure pan support is properly installed in locator notch before inserting pans.
