When Using the Warming Drawer

The warming drawer will keep hot, cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. Do not use to heat cold food other than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal.

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

■Do not put liquid or water in the warming drawer.

■For moist foods, cover them with a lid or aluminum foil.

■Food should be kept hot in its cooking container or transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.
