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, 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.

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
rolls) use the HI (high) setting. To minimize heat loss, avoid
opening the warmer drawer frequently while in use.

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, 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 will be hot and you can be burned.

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
