The warming drawer has an automatic 4-hour timer. After

timer is set for a 4-hour period, do not leave food in warming
drawer for more than 1 hour.

The automatic 4-hour timer can be turned off using the Timer
Override switch. This feature allows you to keep the warming
drawer on until it is turned off manually with the Power “Off”

It is recommended that the switch remain in the “Off” position,
unless longer warming times are required. When the Timer
Override switch is in the “On” position, the light on the switch will
illuminate, showing the Timer has been bypassed.

Timer Override switch, do not let food sit in the warming drawer
for more than 1 hour. Bacterial growth may occur.
Moist-Dry Slide
The Moist-Dry slide 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, put slide on MOIST, closing the vents.
Closing the vents will seal the drawer and keeps hot food soft
and moist.
To keep foods crisp, put slide on DRY, opening the vents.
Opening the vents releases moisture from the drawer and keeps
hot foods crisp and dry.
