WARM AND SERVE DRAWER
The Warm and Serve Drawer is designed to keep prepared food warm until it is time to serve.
This feature is available on select gas and electric models. The Warm and Serve Drawer is
electrically operated on both gas and electric models.
Ranges featuring the Warm and Serve Drawer feature are equipped with heavy duty ball bearing
drawer glides. These glides not only support the weight more effectively, they also allow the
drawer to be opened to its full depth.
The warmer control is an infinite heat switch mounted to the control panel. A 450 watt, 120 volt
element is secured to a metal base located just below the Warm and Serve Drawer. A preheat thermostat (bimetal
disk) is located at the left rear corner of the range, directly above the element terminals. The system also contains a
diode, indicator lamp, and safety thermostat. The diode is located in the wiring harness a short distance from the
safety thermostat.
The safety thermostat is mounted to the rear insulation panel and is actuated during the self-clean cycle. It is used to
open the circuit to the heating element so the warming drawer will not function during the self-clean cycle.
