T
o Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage
• Be sure all packing materials are removed from the appliance before
operating it.
• Keep area around appliance clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other flammable vapors and materials.
• Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat
and may be highly flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an
appliance.
• Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away from parts of
the appliance that may become warm or hot. DO NOT leave plastic
items in the drawer as they may melt or soften if left too close to a
heating element.
• Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite and metallic items
may become hot and cause burns. DO NOT pour spirits over hot foods.

Heating Elements
Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in
minor personal injury.
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how
to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if
the instructions are not followed.
Read and follow all instructions before using this appliance to prevent
the potential risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury or damage to the
appliance as a result of improper usage of the appliance. Use appliance
only for its intended purpose as described in this manual.
To ensure proper and safe operation: Appliance must be properly
installed and grounded by a qualified technician. DO NOT attempt to
adjust, repair, service, or replace any part of your appliance unless it is
specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified servicer.
To avoid risk of property damage, personal injury or death;
follow information in this manual exactly to prevent a fire or
explosion. DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any appliance.
• Use only dry potholders. If moist or damp potholders are used, steam
from potholders could cause a steam burn. DO NOT let potholders
touch hot heating elements located under the drawer. DO NOT use a
towel or bulky cloths in place of potholders.
• Use care when opening the drawer. Let hot air or steam escape (open
vent) before removing or replacing food.
• DO NOT place food in unopened containers in the drawer. Pressure
could build up and cause the container to burst.
• NEVER use the appliance for other than intended use.
• DO NOT use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
• DO NOT use aluminum foil to line the drawer. It is an excellent heat
insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance
and can damage the interior finish.
• Always place warming racks in desired position while drawer is cool.
• Keep drawer closed when not in use.
• DO NOT place items exposed to cooking oils in your warming drawer.
Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical
reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

the weather.

NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room.
Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of
the drawer.
DO NOT use plastic wrap to cover foods placed in the drawer, nor to keep
foods warm that are wrapped or placed in plastic containers for heating.
Plastics can melt onto the drawer if they are in direct contact. If melted onto
the drawer, they can be very difficult to remove.
DO NOT use any cleaning agent with chlorine or chlorine compounds on
stainless steel finish. Chlorine and chlorine compounds are corrosive to
stainless steel.
All special ordered brass parts are coated with an epoxy coating. DO NOT
use brass cleaners or abrasive cleaners on any brass parts. All brass body
parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water. When hot soapy
water will not do the job, use every day household cleaners that are not
abrasive.
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Make sure all controls are OFF and drawer is COOL before
cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical
shock.
If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or
explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or death.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the drawer or cover an
entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air
flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
To avoid sickness and food waste, do not allow defrosted food to remain
in the drawer for more than two hours.
