Proofing bread prepares dough for baking by activating the 
yeast. Proofing twice is recommended.

temperature safe bowl(s) directly on bottom of drawer.

2. Set control knob to PROOF setting.

3. Place vent on MOIST setting.

¹⁄₂ in. (1.27 cm) into 

dough. If indentation remains, the dough is ready.

Do not line warming drawer with aluminum foil.

Keep food covered if it was cooked with a cover on it.

Use narrow strips of foil to shield pie crust edges from further 
browning in drawer.

Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or poultry to prevent 
dryness and further browning while in the drawer.

The use of aluminum foil to cover foods may cause moisture to 
collect and drip into the drawer.

The drawer slides allow you to fully extend the drawer for easier 
cleaning. If necessary, the drawer can be removed.

to disengage latch.
