Warmer Drawer (on some models)

The purpose of the warmer drawer is to keep hot cooked

foods at serving temperatures. Examples are vegetables,

gravies, meats, casseroles, biscuits, roils and pastries. It is

not recommended to heat cold food in the warmer drawer;

always start with hot food.

The warmer drawer may also be used to warm dinner

plates. All food placed in the warmer drawer should be

covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.

Important note:

Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt

onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean up. Use only

utensils and cookware recommended by the manufacturer

for use in the keep warm drawer.

Arranging warmer drawer rack positions

The keep warmer drawer rack may be used in 2 ways:

In the upright position (See Fig. 1) 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 underneath).

* In the downward position (See Fig. 2) to allow for light

weight food items and empty cookware (for example,

roils or pastries and dinner plates) on the rack.

Storage in or on appllance--fiammable

materials should not be stored in an oven, warmer

drawer, near surface units. This includes paper, plastic and

cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as

well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as

aerosol cans, on or near the range.

DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE

children should not be left alone or unattended in the area

where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to

sit or stand on any part of the appliance, including the

warmer drawer.

Always use potholders or oven mitts when

removing food from the warmer drawer as cookware and

plates wiii be hot and you can be burned.

Warmer drawer recommended settings

The recommended warmer drawer food settings is provided

in Fig. 3. Remember the settings provided are meant to be

used as recommendations only. If a particular food is not

listed, start with the MED (medium) setting. If more

crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from

the food.

Most foods can be maintained at serving temperatures on

the MED setting. When a combination of foods are to be

kept warm (for example, a meat with 2 vegetables and

roils) use the ill (high) setting. To minimize heat loss, avoid

opening the warmer drawer frequently while in use.
