WARMING DRAWER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING" To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,

injury to persons, or damage when using the warming drawer,

follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Read all instructions.

• Proper Installation - Be sure the warming drawer is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

• Never Use the Warming Drawer for Warming or Heating

the Room.

• Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where warming drawer is in

use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the warming drawer.

• Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging garments

should never be worn while using the warming drawer.

• User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part of the

warming drawer unless specifically recommended in the

manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified

technician.

• Storage in Warming Drawer - Flammable materials should not be stored in a warming drawer.

• Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires - Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

• Use Only Dry Potholders - Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let

potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

• Use Care When Opening Drawer - Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers - Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

• Placement of Warming Drawer Racks - Always place warming drawer racks in desired location while warming

drawer is cool. If rack must be moved while warming drawer is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating

element in warming drawer.

• DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF WARMING DRAWER - Heating elements

may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of a warming drawer become hot enough to

cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating

elements or interior surfaces of warming drawer until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the

warming drawer may become hot enough to cause burns - among these surfaces are warming drawer vent openings

and surfaces near these openings and warming drawer doors.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged

in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the warming drawer manufacturer may cause injuries.

• Do not use warming drawer for other than intended use.

• To reduce risk of electric shock, do not mount over a sink.

• This product is designed for household use only.

%_._h_-_._.......C,___s¸>

_I Moist_ __

/--

The Moist-Dry slide control allows you to open or close the vent slots in the door. The MOIST setting holds moisture in, while the DRY setting allows steam and moisture to escape from the

drawer. NOTE: Condensation may form on inner surfaces. This is normal.

To keep foods moist, slide control to MOIST, closing the vents. Closing the vents will seal the drawer and keep hot foods soft

and moist. To keep foods crisp, slide control to DRY, opening the vents.

Opening the vents releases moisture from the drawer and keeps hot foods crisp and dry. See the Warming Drawer Temperature Chart in the "Setting the Controls" section.

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 Indoor/Outdoor Warming Drawer is ideal for keeping hot cooked foods at serving temperature. It is designed to operate

properly either indoors or outdoors at temperatures down to 32°F (0°C). If the drawer is operated at temperatures colder than

32°F (0°C), performance may be affected. Different types of food may be placed in the warming drawer at

the same time. When keeping several types of food hot, use the setting for the

highest temperature food in the warming drawer. Place foods requiring the highest temperature on the bottom of the drawer

and those foods requiring the lowest temperature on the elevated rack.

For best results, do not hold foods in the warming drawer longer than 1 hour. For smaller quantities or heat-sensitive foods, such as eggs, do not hold longer than 30 minutes.

Food must be cooked and at serving temperature before being placed in the warming drawer. Cover foods with a lid.

Breads, pastries, and fruit pies may be heated from room temperature on the HI setting. Remove food from plastic bags and place in oven-safe container.

Oven-safe serving dishes and dinner plates can be heated while the warming drawer is preheating.

NOTE: To conserve heat, place cookware and positioning rack in the warming drawer before preheating.

To Use:

1. Push in and turn the control knob to the desired food warming setting: Lo (low), between Lo and Med (medium

low), Med (medium), between Med and Hi (medium high), or Hi (high).

NOTE: For best results, meats, seafood, poultry and any foods containing meat, seafood or poultry should be set to medium or higher.

2. Select MOIST or DRY setting.

3. Allow warming drawer to preheat. Recommended minimum preheating times are 5 minutes for Lo, 10 minutes for Med,

and 20 minutes for Hi.

4. Push in and turn the control knob to OFF when finished.

WARMING DRAWER TEMPERATURE CHART

Different foods require different settings in order to maintain the ideal serving temperature. Use the following chart as a guide.

You can set the drawer temperature anywhere between Lo and Hi. For best results, meats, seafood and poultry should be set to medium or higher. Cover food, if desired, to maintain heat and

moisture. When keeping several different types of food hot, set the drawer

to the food requiring the highest temperature setting. Place item(s) requiring the highest temperature on the bottom of the drawer and those items requiring the lowest temperature on the

rack.

Use only cookware approved for oven use. Follow the cookware manufacturer's instructions.

When using serving pans, make sure the pan support rails are properly installed in the Iocator notch before inserting pans.

Positioning Rack

The 2 racks accompanying your warming drawer will fit from front to back or side to side.

NOTE: The warming drawer must be fully opened when placing or removing racks.

Each rack raises an oven-safe container 1V8"(2.86 cm) from the bottom of the drawer.

Keep the number of times the drawer is opened to a minimum in order to maintain set temperature in the warming drawer.

Optional Pans (accessory)

The warming drawer includes 2 pan support rails designed to hold a variety of serving pan sizes. Pan sizes that can be used are 1/6, 1/9, 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3. A full size serving pan can be placed across the width of the 27" (68.6 cm) and 30" (76.2 cm) warming

drawer. 1/2 and 1/3 size pans may be purchased from the KitchenAid _

Customer eXperience Center. See the "Assistance or Service" section to order.

Other size serving pans can be purchased at various retailers and restaurant supply stores.

Please refer to the following chart to determine the correct positioning of the pan support rails for each of the pan sizes.

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 SLOW COOK function in the warming drawer cooks food slowly at a low temperature over a long period of time, similar to a countertop slow cooker.

When the warming drawer is installed outdoors, the SLOW COOK function should not be used when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C).

There are 2 settings, Hi and Lo. Guidelines for cooking times are 4 to 5 hours for Hi and 8 to 10 hours for Lo. Smaller quantities of food may require less time, while larger quantities may require

more time. When slow cooking, use serving pans (available for purchase) or

oven-safe cookware. To order serving pans, see the "Assistance or Service" section.

Before slow cooking, thaw frozen foods completely. IMPORTANT: Brown roasts thoroughly before starting to slow

cook.
