When Using the Warming Drawer
The warming drawer will keep hot,
cooked foods warm. Always start with hot
food. Do not use to heat cold food other
than crisping crackers, chips or dry
cereal.
Do not line the warming drawer or pan
with aluminum foil. Foil is an excellent heat
insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This
will upset the performance of the drawer
and could damage the interior finish.
Allow approximately 25 minutes for the
warming drawer to preheat.
■
Do not put liquid or water in the
warming drawer.
■
All foods placed in the warming
drawer should be covered with a lid or
aluminum foil. When warming pastries
or breads, the cover should be vented
to allow moisture to escape.
■
Food should be kept hot in its cooking
container or transferred to a heat-safe
serving dish.
CAUTION:
Plastic containers or plastic wrap will
melt if in direct contact with the drawer, pan or a
hot utensil. Melted plastic may not be removable
and is not covered under your warranty.
■
Remove serving spoons, etc., before
placing containers in warming drawer.

Temperature Selection Chart
To keep several different foods hot,
set the control to the food needing the
highest setting.
■
The temperature, type and amount
of food, and the time held will affect
the quality of the food.
■
Repeated opening of the drawer
allows the hot air to escape and the
food to cool.
■
With large loads it may be necessary
to use a higher warming drawer setting
and cover some of the cooked food
items.
■
Do not use plastic containers or
plastic wrap.
CAUTION:
Do not keep food in the warming
drawer for more than two hours.
