Operating the keep warm drawer
The purpose of the keep warm 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 keep warm drawer. All food placed in the keep warm
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 keep warm drawer.
I_ Always use potholders or oven mitts when
removing food from the keep warm drawer as cookware
and plates will be hot and you can be burned.
To set the keep warm drawer controls
The control and indicator lights for the keep warm
drawer features are located on the control panel. The
temperatures are approximate, and are designated by HI

1. Touch the oneoff pad (see Figure 6) at the keep
warm drawer control position. The keep Warm drawer
indicator light will flash. Note: If no further pads are

Keep warm drawer temperature selection
Recommended keep warm drawer settings table is shown
below. If a particular food is not listed, start with the
NED setting. If more crispness is desired, remove the lid
or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can be kept
at serving temperatures on the NED setting. When a
combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance,
meat with 2 vegetables and rolls), use the HI setting. To
avoid heat loss, do not open the keep warm drawer while
in use.
