Warmer Drawer
The purpose of the warmer drawer is to keep hot cooked foods
at serving temperatures such as vegetables, gravies, meats,
casseroles, biscuits, rolls 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.
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. Foods that can easily spoil
such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the
refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the
oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be
removed promptly when finished cooking.
Storage in or on appliance—flammable
materials should not be stored in an oven, warmer drawer, near
surface units. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such
as cookbooks, plastic ware 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 pot holders or oven mitts when
removing food from the warmer drawer as cookware and plates
will be hot and you can be burned.
Important note:
The warmer drawer is equipped with a catch that may require
extra force to open and close the drawer.
Arranging warmer drawer rack positions
The keep warmer drawer rack may be used in 2 ways:
• In the upright position (Figure 43) 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 (Figure 44) to allow for light
weight food items and empty cookware (for example, rolls
or pastries and dinner plates) on the rack.
