Always use 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.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long
hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose
fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves,
jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance, it
is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians
to ensure that they are instructed in safe operation of the
appliance by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on
any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming drawer
or storage drawer. This can damage the appliance, and the
unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely
supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left
alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in
use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity,

climbing on an appliance to reach items could be
seriously injured.

Food Safety
CAUTION
To maintain food safety, follow these guidelines:
1. DO NOT use the warming drawer to heat cold food
(exception: it is safe to use the drawer to crisp
crackers, chips or dry cereal and to warm plates).
2. Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The
USDA recommends holding hot food at 140°F or
warmer. The LOW setting of the warming drawer will
not hold spoilable foods at 140°F (60°C).
3. DO NOT warm food for longer than one hour.
Cookware Safety
CAUTION
Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if in direct
contact with the drawer or a hot utensil. If it melts onto
the drawer, it may not be removable.
WARNING
DO NOT store flammable materials in the warming
drawer. This includes paper, plastic or cloth items, such
as cookbooks and towels, as well as flammable liquids.
DO NOT use the warming drawer to heat towels.
DO NOT store explosives, such as aerosol cans, in or
near the drawer. Flammable materials may explode and
result in fire or property damage.
