Safety Practices And Precautions

• As with any cooking or heating appliance, never leave the warming drawer unattended when warming 

food, this could be a fire hazard.

• Only certain types of glass, heat proof glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or glazes are suitable for 

use in this warming drawer. Utensils that are not thermally heat safe may break with sudden 
temperature changes.

• Never heat unopened containers, a build up of pressure may cause the container to burst.
• 120 volt AC, 5 amp minimum circuit required.
• Grease is flammable, avoid letting grease deposits collect in the warming drawer, clean up spillage.
• DO NOT use water on grease fires. Turn OFF the warming drawer, then smother the fire with 

baking soda or use a dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

• When opening the drawer while warming liquids, the drawer must be opened slowly to avoid spillage.
• Use care when opening a hot warming drawer; to avoid severe burns, open slowly, allow the hot air 

or steam to escape before reaching in to remove or replace any foods.

• Do not repair or replace any part of this appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this 

manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified Service Technician. Service Technicians 
must disconnect the power supply before servicing this appliance.

• When using the warming drawer: DO NOT TOUCH THE INTERIOR SURFACES or the exterior 

area immediately surrounding the door until it has had sufficient time to cool to avoid burn injuries.

• Clean the warming drawer with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to 

clean the appliance while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer.

• Be sure all the controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of aerosol 

cleaner on or around the appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the 
presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

• Do not touch the heating element or interior surfaces of the warming drawer, even if they appear 

dark in color. They may still be hot enough to cause burn injury, allow sufficient time to cool.
