Before Setting Warmer Drawer Control
Arranging Warmer Drawer Rack Positions
Set the warmer drawer rack in the vertical position as shown below.
The rack can be used in 2 ways:

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).
• In the
downward position
for placement of light weight food items and empty
dishware (for example, rolls or pastries and dinner plates).

To Operate the Warmer Drawer
The purpose of the warmer drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving tem
perature. 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 moisture and softness. Do not cover crisp foods.
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 oven mitts 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 knob. It turns on when
the control is set, and stays on until the control is turned off. Make sure indicator
light is off when removing food from drawer.
