To Operate the Warmer Drawer
Your range maybe equipped with a warmer drawer. The purpose of the warmer
drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. 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 dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in the
warmer drawer.
Always use potholders or ovenmitts when removing food from
the warmer drawer as cookware and plates will be hot.
Indicator Light
The indicator light is located below the thermostat control. It turns on when the
control is set, and stays on until the control is turned off. The warmer drawer
is inoperable during the self-clean cycle. The indicator light will not come on
during the self-clean cycle.
To Set the Thermostat Control
The thermostat control is used to select the temperature of the warmer drawer.
It is located on the control panel. 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. Select the temperature setting.
2. For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty drawer
will preheat in approximately 15 minutes.
3. When done, turn the thermostat control to OFF.
Temperature Selection
Refer to the chart 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.
