GENERAL FEATURES
The warming drawer is fitted with an heating element (500 W) placed on the top.
The heating can be regulated from 86 °F (30 °C) (LO) to 248 °F (120 °C) (HI).
On the top part of the drawer a moisture selector is fitted. For correct use see the
"MOISTURE SELECTOR" chapter.
USING THE WARMING DRAWER FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Switch on the warming drawer empty at maximum power (HI) for about 2 hours to
remove traces of grease and smells from the components.
• When the warming drawer has cooled down and unplugging the range, clean the
inside of the drawer with a cloth soaked in water and neutral detergent and dry it
perfectly.
WARNING: The drawer is hot during operation, use the handle.
TO USE THE WARMING DRAWER
• Push and turn the control knob to a temperature setting: (LO), (HI) or between (LO)
and (HI) position.
• Slide the Moisture selector to a Moist or Dry position. Intermediate positions can be
setted (fig. 3.2) (see the "MOISTURE SELECTOR" chapter)
• Allow time for the drawer to be preheated.
• Preheat with rack in place if using that arrangement.
• Preheat empty serving dish while preheating drawer.
• Add cooked, hot food in cooking utensil or to heat-safe serving dishes.
• Food may be kept hot in its cooking container or transferred to a heat-safe serving
dish.
• Aluminum foil may be used to cover food.
CORRECT USE OF THE WARMING DRAWER
• The warming drawer will keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature.
• Always start with hot food.
• DO NOT use to heat cold food other than proofing yeast dough, crisping crackers,
chips, and dry cereal, or warming dishes or plates.
• Use care when opening the drawer. Open door a crack and let hot air or steam
escape before re-moving or replacing food.
• Do not place food in unopened containers in the drawer. Pressure could build up and
cause container to burst.
• Do not touch the interior surface of the drawer while it is in use. The interior of the
drawer could become hot enough to cause burns.
• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns
from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let
potholders touch hot heating element located upper the drawer.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line the drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and
will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and it could
damage the interior finish.
• Do not store flammable materials in the drawer.
• Do not use plastic containers. Do not use no heat resistant containers.
• Do not use the warming drawer as a storage drawer.
