Arranging Warmer Drawer Rack Positions
The warmer drawer rack can be set in two positions to accom-
modate foods and any items that need to be warmed or kept
warm. The rack must be placed in the vertical position in one of
two ways.
Place the rack in the upright position ( Figure 33 ) to place low
profile food items under and on top of the rack (for example,
rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and a casserole dish under).
In the downward position ( Figure 34 ) to allow the placement of
light weight food items and empty dish ware (for example, rolls
or pastries and dinner plates).
Important notes:
• Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for
oven and ceramic cooktop use. Do not use plastic wrap or
aluminum foil to cover food. Plastic or aluminum foil can
melt onto the cooktop.
Warmer Drawer Settings
Refer to the warmer drawer recommended food settings below.
If a particular food is not listed, start with the medium level, and
adjust as needed.
Do not place flammable items such as plastic
salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if
placed too close to the surface elements. Do not allow aluminum
foil, empty glass-porcelain cookware or any material that can
melt to make contact with the ceramic cooktop.
