Arranging Warmer Drawer Rack Positions

Set the warmer drawer rack in the vertical position as shown below. The rack can be used in 2 ways:

In the upright position to allow low profile food items to be placed both under and on top of the rack (for example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and a casserole dish under).

In the downward position to allow you to place light weight food items and empty dishware (for example, rolls or pastries and dinner plates).

To Operate the Warmer Drawer

Your range is equipped with a warmer drawer. The purpose of the warmer drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the warmer drawer to keep hot foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies, meats, casseroles, biscuits and rolls, pastries and heated dinner plates. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food in the warmer drawer.

The warmer drawer is equipped with a catch which may require extra force when opening and closing the 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 dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in the warmer drawer.

(if equipped) Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warmer drawer as cookware and plates will be hot.

Indicator Light

The indicator light is located below the thermostat control. It turns on when the control is set, and stays on until the control is turned off. The warmer drawer is inoperable during the self-clean cycle. The indicator light will not come on during the self-clean cycle.

To Set the Thermostat Control

The thermostat control is used to select the temperature of the warmer drawer. It is located on the control panel. To set the thermostat, push in and turn the knob to the desired setting. The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by HI, MED and LO.

1.Select the temperature setting.

2.For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty drawer will preheat in approximately 15 minutes.

3.When done, turn the thermostat control to OFF.

Temperature Selection

Refer to the chart in the side column for recommended settings. If a particular food is not listed, start with the medium setting. If more crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil.

Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures by using the medium setting.

When a combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance, a meat with 2 vegetables and rolls), use the high setting.

Refrain from opening the warmer drawer while in use to eliminate loss of heat from the drawer.
