The Warm & Ready warming drawer is ideal for keeping hot cooked foods at serving temperature and raising/proofing bread. It may also be used for warming breads and pastries. This feature, activated by the WARM & READY knob on the

control panel, controls warming in the warming drawer, which is located below the oven. The rack

can be used in two positions.

Food should be hot before being placed in the warming drawer. All foods should be covered except those marked with an asterisk (*).

For best results, hold most foods no longer than one hour. Hold smaller quantities and heat sensitive foods, such as eggs, no longer than 30 minutes.

Food must be at serving temperature before being placed in the drawer.

Different types of food can be placed in the warming drawer at the same time.

Breads, pastries, and fruit pies may be warmed from room temperature on HI setting.

Remove food from plastic bags and place in an oven-safe container.

Cover foods with a lid or aluminum foil, not plastic wrap.

Use only containers approved for oven use and follow manufacturer's instructions.

Empty serving dishes and dinner plates can be heated while preheating the drawer.

The LO setting can be used to raise bread dough. Covering should be acceptable for oven use. Raising time will be reduced by about half, so check often to make sure the dough does not rise too high in the pan.
