About the warming drawer
The
Warming Drawer
will keep hot, cooked foods warm. Always start with hot
food. Do not use to warm cold food other than bread, crackers, chips, or dry cereal.
Allow approximately 25 minutes for the warming drawer to preheat.
•
Do not line the warming drawer or
pan with aluminum foil. Foil is an
excellent heat insulator and will trap
heat beneath it. This will impede the
performance of the drawer and could
damage the interior finish.
•
Do not put liquid or water in the
warming drawer.
•
All food placed in the warming drawer
should be covered with a lid. When
warming pastries or breads, the cover
should be vented to allow moisture to
escape.
•
Remove serving spoons, etc. before
placing containers in the warming
drawer.
•
Food should be kept hot in its cooking
container or transferred to a heat-safe
serving dish.
CAUTION
•
Plastic containers or plastic wrap will melt if in direct contact with the drawer,
a pan, or a hot utensil. Melted plastic may not be removable and is not
covered under your warranty.
