READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE PRECAUTIONS
■Read this Installation Guide thoroughly before installation. This will help to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons.
■Remove all packaging materials from your appliance.
■Install according to instructions. See page 6-10 to insure proper installation and servicing.
■Be sure to have a qualified service technician install and ground this appliance.
■Plug into rated outlet: 120 Volts AC, 5 amp min., 15 amp maximum circuit requirement.
PREHEATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Warming Drawer is designed to keep cooked foods warm for extended periods of time. The drawer must
be pre-heated before use on high (see Use and Care Guide). If the warming drawer isn’t pre-heated, the
internal temperature of the food being warmed could fall below the minimum safe level and bacteria could
develop. Always preheat the drawer according to the instructions described in the warming drawer Use and
Care Guide.
■Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. They should never be
allowed to turn knobs, push buttons, sit or stand on any part of an appliance.
■Children in walkers, or children crawling can be attracted to the round door handle and may grab and open
the warming drawer. This can result in injury from the door being pulled open on a child, or severe burns if it
is in use and hot.
WARNING:
Do not store items of interest to children in, above or around any appliance. Children could be seriously injured if
they should climb ontothe appliance to reach these items.
Be certain to use only dry pot holders:Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may cause burns from
steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
■Never store anything in the warming drawer. Flammable materials can catch fire, plastic items may melt or
ignite and other types of items could be ruined.
■Do not hang articles from any part of the appliance or place anything against the drawer. Some fabrics are
quite flammable and could catch on fire.
■For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the appliance, never sit, stand, or lean on the warming drawer door.
■For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn
while using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while using
this appliance.
■Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the warming drawer. Using a foil liner could result in a fire
hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of heat and ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat
will be trapped underneath it. This trapped heat can upset the performance of the warming drawer parts.
WARNING:
This appliance is designed for warming food. Based on safety considerations, never use the warming drawer to
warm or heat a room.
■Aswith any cooking or heating appliance, never leave the warming drawer unattended when warming food,
this could be a fire hazard.

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.
