Arranging Warmer Drawer (Warm & Ready TM
Drawer) Rack Positions (some models)
Note: Use the warmer drawer to keep hot foods hot such as:
vegetables, gravies, meats, casseroles, biscuits and rolls,
pastries and heated dinner plates.
The rack can be used in 2 ways:
In the upright position 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 under - See Fig. 1).
In the downward position to allow you to place light
weight food items and empty dishware (for example,
rolls or pastries and dinner plates - See Fig. 2).

To Operate the Warmer (Warm & Ready TM)
Drawer
Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat
cold food in the warmer drawer.
All food placed in the warmer drawer should be covered with
a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality. Do not use
plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the
drawer and be very difficult to clean.
Use only dishes, utensils and cookware recommended for
oven use in the warmer drawer.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when
removing food from the warmer drawer as cookware and
plates will be HOT.
To Set the Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Drawer
Thermostat Control (some models)
The thermostat control is used to select the temperature of
the warmer drawer. It is located on the control panel (See
Fig. 3 on previous page). To set the thermostat, push in and
turn the knob to the desired setting. The temperatures are
approximate, and are designated by HI, MED and LO.
1. Turn the knob to select the desired temperature setting.
2. For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food.
An empty drawer will preheat in approximately 15
minutes.
3. Turn the thermostat control to OFF after use.

Temperature Selection (some models)
Refer to the table in the side column for recommended
settings. If a particular food is not listed, start with the
medium setting. If more crispness is desired, remove the lid
or aluminum foil.
Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures by using
the medium setting.
When a combination of foods are to be kept warm (for
instance, a meat with 2 vegetables and rolls), use the high
setting.
Refrain from opening the warmer drawer while in use to
eliminate loss of heat from the drawer.
