Drawer
Rack Positions
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, roils or pastries and dinner
plates). Set the warmer drawer rack as shown below.

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. 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 dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in
the warmer drawer.
• _
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food
from the warmer drawer as cookware and plates will be hot.
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. Turn the knob to select the desired temperature setting.
2.
For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty
drawer will preheat in approximately 1 5 minutes.
3.
When done, turn the thermostat control to OFF.
Temperature
Selection
Refer to the chart 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.
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.
