Ranges - About the Storage Drawer

The storage drawer on a range provides a convenient place to store baking and broiling pans. It is tested to hold up to 25 lbs, and is easy to remove and keep clean. Removal and Cleaning: 

  1. The drawer can be removed by pulling it all the way out to the stop position, then lifting up and pulling drawer out the rest of the way.

  2. You can clean by wiping with a damp soapy cloth or sponge. Never use harsh abrasives or scouring pads, as they may scratch the surface of the drawer.

Drawer Construction: 

  • Freestanding electric ranges: Have double wall construction storage drawers. They have two pieces of steel separated by approximately 1/2" of space. This design helps to prevent exterior dents from occurring when placing heavy objects in the drawer.

  • All other ranges have single wall construction storage drawers.

Uses: 

  • The drawer can be used for heat-safe cookware and pans.

  • Do not place dish towels, papers, cookbooks, owner's manuals, contact paper, shelf liner, plastics, etc. in the storage drawer because the drawer can get warm or even hot while cooking in or self-cleaning the oven.
