WARMING OF SERVING BOWLS, PLATES AND CONTAINERS
? Carefully place empty dishes and containers in the chamber with the rack in the
lowest position, closest to the base. This will allow the heat to generate more
quickly to the empty dishes, yet still allow air to flow below the dishes.
? Before using any delicate dinnerware in the Perfect Temp, check with the
manufacturer for maximum heat tolerance.
? DO NOT place empty containers directly on the base of the Perfect Temp, always
use the rack in the lowest position when warming containers and dishes.
? DO NOT warm empty plastic containers.
