WARMING DRAWER

DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENT OR THE INTERIOR SURFACE OF THE DRAWER. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn.

REMEMBER: The inside surface of the drawer may be hot when the drawer is opened.

The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food; cold food cannot be heated or cooked in the warming drawer.

Use care when opening the drawer. Open the drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

Do not use the drawer to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch on fire.

Do not use aluminum foil to line the drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and it could damage the interior finish.

Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned food or combustible materials in the drawer.

Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or near your drawer. Do not warm food in the drawer for more than three hours.

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

Never keep pet birds in the kitchen. The health of birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes released during an oven self-clean cycle. Fumes may be harmful or fatal to birds. Move birds to a well-ventilated room.

Clean only parts listed this manual in the self-clean cycle. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broil pan, rack, utensils, and food.

No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or on the outside of the oven. Use only a ceramic cooktop cleaner or the cleaner supplied with this appliance on the glass cooktop.
