USE & CARE INFORMATION
CLEANING THE WARMING DRAWER
Be careful cleaning any part of this appliance, particularly the drawer box and back of the
drawer face. All parts of the drawer can be cleaned with a hot soapy damp cloth, rinsed, dried
and buffed with a heavy pile cloth. Always try this first, as it is the mildest cleaning procedure.
Be sure the Warming Drawer is turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of
aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action
could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
Use the mildest cleaning procedure first. Some brands of cleaners are harsher than others,
read their directions. Try on a small area first.
To avoid marring the surface always rub the metal finishes in the direction of the polish grain
lines. The cleaner will be more effective when used in the direction of the polish lines.
Use only clean sponges,soft cloths, paper towels,plastic or non-metal soap pads for cleaning
or scouring, as recommended in this section. (Caution: some soap pads can scratch).
Be sure to rinse all parts thoroughly and to wipe dry to avoid water marks.
Remove food particles after every used.
1) Drawer:Clean the drawer with warm soapy damp sponge or cloth.
2) Drawer Front: Shine with stainless steel cleaner in direction of grain.
3) Gasket: Clean with warm soapy damp sponge (care should be taken when cleaning the gasket
because silicon is tough until it is cut, at which time it will tear very easily).
4) Knobs: The on/off temperature knob may be removed to be cleaned (See Fig.07).The moist/crisp
knob, however, should never be removed. Be aware that the pull off force will decrease and a
loose knob could become a choking hazard for small children. Should the knob come off, use
DCS cement (part number 14178) to re-attach the knob.
5) Light: Clean with damp cloth or sponge.
6) Drawer cavity: Same as Drawer above.
7) Element: Care should be taken when cleaning the heating element. Only clean the element
when the unit is cool. Use warm soapy water on damp cloth.
