Cleaning the warming drawer
Be careful cleaning any part of this appliance, particularly the drawer box and back of the drawer
face. All parts of the drawer can be cleaned with a hot soapy damp cloth, rinsed, dried and
buffed with a heavy pile cloth. Always try this first, as it is the mildest cleaning procedure.
Be sure the Warming Drawer is 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.
Use the mildest cleaning procedure first. Some brands of cleaners are harsher than others, read
their directions. Try on a small area first.
To avoid marring the surface always rub the metal finishes in the direction of the polish grain
lines. The cleaner will be more effective when used in the direction of the polish lines.
Use only clean sponges, soft cloths, paper towels, plastic or non-metal soap pads for cleaning or
scouring, as recommended in this section. (Caution: some soap pads can scratch).
Be sure to rinse all parts thoroughly and to wipe dry to avoid water marks.
Remove food particles after every use.
