• Amount of dishes or food in the drawer

• The arrangement of items in the drawer

• The temperate set. In general, the more dishes or items in the drawer and the higher the set temperature, the longer

it will take to reach the set temperature.

• If food will be held for more than one hour, it must be held at 140°F [60°C] or above. (MED)

Cover moist food and liquids with a lid or heat-resistant cling film. This will prevent the moisture from escaping, condensation from forming and moisture settling on the outside the dishes.

Do not cover roast or fried dishes which need to stay crisp. Keep these dishes hot at high temperatures.

3. Put the food in the preheated dishes.

4. Close the drawer again.

SWITCHING OFF

Turn the knob to OFF. Take the dishes out of the drawer using a cloth or oven gloves.

NOTE: Never transfer hot dishes directly from the hot stove top to the glass base of the heating drawer. This could damage the glass drawer base.

SLOW COOKING

Slow cooking is ideal for cooking tender meat which needs to be medium rare or rare. This cooking method means the meat will always be pink inside. This does not, however, mean that the meat is raw or undercooked.

• This cooking method not only keeps the juices inside, but it also makes it easy to keep the meat hot.

• Suitable dishes to use: glass, porcelain or ceramic with a lid.

PROCEDURE

1. Preheat the warming drawer with the chosen dish to the maximum temperature for 15 minutes.

2. Heat some butter or oil in a pan. Brown the meat well for the time indicated in the table, then place it immediately in the preheated pan and cover with the lid.

3. Set the thermostat between MED/MAX (140/195°F ) [60/90°C] for the time required to finish the cooking.

USING THE WARMING DRAWER

WARNINGS FOR SLOW COOKING

(CONT.)

Only use fresh meat in perfect condition.

Trim off any excess fat.

The pieces of meat do not necessarily have to be turned.

Once cooked, the meat can be carved immediately; it does not have to rest.

Meat that is slow cooked is not as hot as meat cooked in the traditional way, so it is advisable to put the plates in the warming drawer on the left-hand side for the last 20-30 minutes as well.

Serve the meat with piping hot sauces.

If you want to keep the meat hot after cooking, turn the knob to between WARM and MED (105-140°F / 40-60°C). Smaller pieces of meat can be kept hot for 45 minutes and larger pieces for two hours.

APPLICATIONS

Slow cooking is suitable for all tender cuts of beef, pork, veal, lamb, game and poultry. The initial browning times and the subsequent cooking times depend on the size of the slices of meat.

The browning time is for meat placed in a preheated pan with butter or oil.

DISH EXAMPLE INITIAL BROWNING LEVEL Small slices of meat Strips about 1 - 2 minutes MED Small steaks or medallions about 1 - 2 minutes per side MED Medium size slices of meat Tenderloin about 4 - 5 minutes per side MAX Lean roast about 10 - 15 minutes per side MAX Large slices of meat Tenderloin (from 2 Lb [900g]) about 6 - 8 minutes per side MAX Roast beef about 8 - 10 minutes per side MAX Vegetables about 30 minutes per side MED

NOTE: There are 2 settings: MAX and MED. Guidelines for cooking times are 4 to 5 hours for MAX and 8 to 10 hours for MED. Smaller quantities of food may require less time, while larger quantities may require more time.

Never use a vacuum cleaner on the internal parts of the appliance.

FRONT SURFACE AND CONTROL PANEL

The use of a moist cloth is often sufficient when cleaning the appliance. If needed, add a few drops of detergent in the water. Dry the appliance with a dry cloth. The steel front of the appliance can be cleaned with products specifically designed for steel.

REPLACING A WARMING DRAWER LIGHT BULB

The Warming Drawer is equipped with two halogen lights, located on the right side of the unit.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD - Make sure the power has been shut off to the Warming Drawer. The light socket is energized when the door is open. Failure to shut off the power when replacing a light bulb could result in electric shock or burns.

Make sure the glass lens is cool to the touch. Use care when handling the lens, it is fragile and can break if dropped.

Use only 20 watt, 12 Volt, halogen “Bi-Pin” bulbs suitable for appliance use. This type of bulb may be available at hardware stores & home centers, or specialty lighting stores. Call Hestan Customer Care for more information.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

TO REPLACE A LIGHT BULB

1. MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF! Unplug the unit or turn off power at the breaker.

(CONT.)

2. Remove the lens retaining screw. Use a small flat-blade screwdriver to carefully pry off the glass lens and set aside. Reach into the lamp housing and pull out the old light bulb as shown in the image below.

3. Before installation, it is very important to clean the new bulb carefully with a clean, soft cloth or tissue paper. Grease, fingerprints, or oils in your skin can leave a residue on the glass surface of the bulb which will create a hot-spot. The bulb will eventually crack at this hot-spot.

4. While still using a cloth or tissue paper, insert the new bulb in the lamp housing. Push the bulb fully into the socket.

5. Re-install the glass lens taking note of the cutaway in the glass which aligns with the bulb socket.

6. Restore the power and check if the new bulb is working. If the drawer was removed, re-install it.
