Warming Drawer
The purpose of the warming 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 warming
drawer; always start with hot food.
The warming drawer may also be used to warm dinner
plates. All food placed in the warming drawer should be
covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.
Arranging warming drawer rack positions
The keep warming drawer rack may be used in 2 ways:
In the upright position (See Fig. 1) 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 (See Fig. 2) to allow for light
weight food items and empty cookware (for example,
rolls or pastries and dinner plates) on the rack.
Important note:
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
for use in the keep warm drawer.

Storage in or on applianceflammable
materials should not be stored in an oven, warming
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 warming drawer.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when
removing food from the warming drawer as cookware and
plates will be hot and you can be burned.
Warming drawer recommended settings
The recommended warming 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 warming drawer frequently while in use.
