Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to 
the side, open the door slowly and slightly to let hot air and/
or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and 
make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After 
the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your 
cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or 
cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of 
pressure may cause the container to burst and cause 
injury.

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.

Do not touch interior surface of the drawer while it is in use. 
The interior of the drawer could become hot enough to 
cause burns. Allow drawer and rack (if equipped) to cool 
before handling.

To prevent burns, do not remove drawer while hot. Be sure 
drawer is empty before removing.

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.

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, 
whether or not the appliance is in use. 

Items of interest to children should not be stored in an 
appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the 
backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach 
items could be seriously injured.

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.

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.

3. DO NOT warm food for longer than one hour.
