Operating the Warmer Drawer
The purpose of the Warmer Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food in the Warmer Drawer. All food placed in the Warmer Drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in the Warmer Drawer.
Warmer (Warm & Ready™) Drawer & Bread Proofing Indicator Lights

Note: The Warmer Drawer will not operate during the Self-Clean cycle.
Warmer Drawer Humidity Controller Feature
This feature may be used to control humidity levels in the Warmer Drawer. The control knob is located on the inner front panel of the Warmer Drawer.
