hours.
CAUTION
•
Do not use the warming drawer for storage
of racks, broiler pans, insert pans, plates,
or utensils. The warming drawer contains a
heating element which may damage any items
not specifically designed to be used with it
and should only be used to store cookware
specifically supplied by LG with your range.
•
Do not put food or foil directly on the surface
or base of the warming drawer. This may result
in damage to your drawer and may spoil your
food.
•
Do not place plastic wrap in the warming
drawer or use it to cover food being heated
in the warming drawer. Plastic may melt onto
the drawer or surrounding areas and is very
difficult to remove. Use only aluminum foil or
cookware that is capable of withstanding baking
temperature to heat or cover your food.
•
Do not use the warming drawer to heat water
or any other liquids. Spilled liquids may cause
an electrical short or result in severe personal
injury, electric shock or death.
•
Never place plastics, paper, canned foods or
other combustible material into the warming
drawer. These items pose a severe risk of fire,
damage and injury.
•
In the unlikely event that an item falls behind
the warming drawer, always turn the power off
and wait for the warming drawer to cool before
retrieving the item. Never attempt to retrieve
any items that fall behind the warming drawer
without first turning the power off and ensuring
the warming drawer cavity has cooled off.
Failure to do so may result in severe personal
injury, electric shock or death.
•
Do not touch the surface of the warming drawer
while it is in operation. Use oven mitts or hot
pads when inserting or removing food to avoid
burns or other injury.
•
Do not leave food in the warming drawer for
longer than one hour. Eating food which has
been heated for too long at low temperatures
can lead to food-borne illnesses.
