Important notes:
Always start with hot food when using the warmer
drawer. DO NOT heat cold food in the warmer drawer.
Flex Clean can not be set when the warmer drawer is
active.
The warmer drawer is equipped with a catch that may
require extra force to open and close the drawer.
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.
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.
