Preheating & utilizing warmer – Victory RH-2D-7-EW-PT User Manual
Page 8
Preheat the warmer section one hour before placing food. The food should be placed in the cabinet while hot, but not
until it stops giving off steam (if excessive, use a lid on pots or pans).
It is necessary to experiment by increasing and decreasing the temperature of the warmer until the temperature at which
majority food is in best condition has been discovered. Once the setting is determined, the control should always be
kept at this setting.
Foods such as breaded meats, fish, etc require less degree of moisture in the warmer to prevent sogginess. All
warmer sections are equipped with vents or a damper. The damper should be opened for such food by turning the
knob in the desired direction for opening and closing.
