The lower oven feature is ideal for cooking foods such as pizza, casseroles, baked potatoes and frozen convenience foods. The purpose of the keep warm drawer feature is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. It is NOT recommended to heat cold food in the keep warm drawer.

Storage in or on appliance—flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface units or in the storage drawer, warmer drawer or lower oven. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range.

CAUTION

Always use oven mitts when removing food from the Bake-n-Warm™ oven. The drawer rack, drawer compartment, cookware and plates may be hot.

FOOD POISONING HAZARD. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Should an oven fire occur, close the drawer and turn the Bake-n-Warm™ oven OFF. If the fire continues, use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive.

SETTING LOWER OVEN DRAWER

Using the oven or keep warm features

When placing food in the Bake-n-Warm oven always use a baking sheet or pan with 4 raised sides to prevent food from sliding off.

To minimize sliding of bake ware, open and close the drawer gently making sure the drawer latches when closed.

During cooking/warming, limit the number of times the drawer is opened. This will minimize heat loss. Repeated opening of the drawer during while cooking may increase cooking times and produce uneven cooking results. The cook time for the lower oven feature may vary slightly from the upper oven times.

For best results with the lower oven, pastries, casseroles with crumb toppings and bakery type items should be cooked in the larger upper oven.

The maximum height of foods and utensils that may be used in the Bake-n-Warm™ oven is 2-1/2”. The maximum width is 15”. Pay close attention to foods that have potential to rise beyond the recommended2-1/2”maximumheight.

Use pans in the drawer large enough to hold food and any juices that may result from the cooking process.

The drawer rack must always be in place when cooking or warming foods in the drawer. Be sure that the rack is placed with the down turned sides into the drawer. This will provide some air space between the drawer and the food (See Figs. 1 &2). Do not put food or utensils directly on the oven drawer bottom.

Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the drawer or surrounding areas and be very difficult to clean. Use a lid or aluminum foil instead. Use only utensils and cookware in the oven drawer that are recommended for oven use in the upper oven.
