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, 
whether or not the appliance is in use.

Important Safety Instructions
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: 
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an 
appliance, in cabinets or above an appliance. Children 
climbing on an appliance to reach items could be 
seriously injured.
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.
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.
