Setting Oven Controls
Warmer Drawer
The purpose of the warmer drawer is to keep hot cooked
foods at serving temperature. Use the warmer drawer feature to
keep cooked foods hot such as vegetables, gravies, casseroles,
soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven safe dinner plates at
serving temperature.
Always start with hot food. Do not heat cold food with the
warmer drawer. All food placed on the warmer drawer should
be covered with a lid to maintain quality. For best results, when
warming pastries or breads, the cover should have an opening
to allow moisture to escape. Use only dish ware, utensils and
cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use in the
warmer drawer..
1. Press Warmer Drawer. The warmer drawer indicator light
will turn on.
2. Press the desired heat setting of either LO, MED, or HI. The
selected indicator light will remain on while the drawer is
heating. The warmer drawer indicator light will also stay lit
until the warm drawer is turned off.
3. When ready to serve, press the warmer drawer key until the
indicator light is OFF.
Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for
more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result
in food poisoning or sickness.
Arranging Warmer Drawer Rack Positions
The warmer drawer rack can be set in two positions to accom-
modate foods and any items that need to be warmed or kept
warm. The rack must be placed in the vertical position in one of
two ways.
In the upright position (Figure 41) to allow low profile food
items to be placed both under and on top of the rack (for
example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and a casserole dish
under).
In the downward position (Figure 42) to allow the placement of
light weight food items and empty dish ware (for example, rolls
or pastries and dinner plates).
Important notes:
Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for
oven and ceramic cooktop use. Do not use plastic wrap or
aluminum foil to cover food. Plastic or aluminum foil can
melt onto the cooktop.
