Warmer Drawer (some models)
Warm & Ready™ Drawer
The purpose of the warmer drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperatures. Examples are vegetables, gravies, meats, casseroles, biscuits, rolls, and pastries. It is not recommended to heat cold food in the warmer drawer; always start with hot food.
The warmer drawer may also be used to warm dinner plates. All food placed in the warmer drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.
IMPORTANT
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean up. Use only utensils and cookware recommended by the manufac- turer for use in the keep warm drawer.
