USING THE WARM & READY WARMING DRAWER
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit for more than one hour
before or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or
sickness.
The Warm & Ready warming drawer is ideal for
keeping hot cooked foods at serving temperature
and raising/proofing bread. It may also be used for
warming breads and pastries. This feature,
activated by the WARM & READY knob on the
control panel, controls warming in the warming
drawer, which is located below the oven. The rack
can be used in two positions.
• For best results, hold most foods no longer than
one hour. Hold smaller quantities and heat
sensitive foods, such as eggs, no longer than
30 minutes.
• Food must be at serving temperature before
being placed in the drawer.
• Different types of food can be placed in the
warming drawer at the same time.
• Breads, pastries, and fruit pies may be warmed
from room temperature on HI setting.
• Remove food from plastic bags and place in an
oven-safe container.
• Cover foods with a lid or aluminum foil, not
plastic wrap.
• Use only containers approved for oven use and
follow manufacturer's instructions.
• Empty serving dishes and dinner plates can be
heated while preheating the drawer.
• The LO setting can be used to raise bread
dough. Covering should be acceptable for oven
use. Raising time will be reduced by about half,
so check often to make sure the dough does not
rise too high in the pan.
